About

The shop

Blackline is a three-chair shop with a strict no-rush policy and one idea: every cut ends in a single clean line. Sonny runs the floor, the record player runs warm, and the espresso is free while you wait.

Meet the team

Sonny fixed a fade another shop charged me eighty dollars to ruin. I haven't been anywhere else in two years.

— Daniel

Quietest shave of my life. Hot towels, open blade, no small talk unless you start it. Perfect.

— Tom

Rami took one look at the photo on my phone and said 'better'. He was right.

— Ari

Booked online at 11pm, in the chair at 10am, out by 10:45 looking like a new invoice rate.
