Gentleman's Cuts at Marina One is the downtown home of a Singapore barbershop group whose motto — every cut, a masterpiece; every client, a gentleman — sets the tone from the moment you sit down. Located on the B2 level of Marina One at 8A Marina Boulevard, the shop brings classic barbering to the Marina Bay professional: precision scissor cuts, expert fades, straight razor shaves and unhurried, detail-oriented care.
The service menu covers the full grooming routine. Cuts range from the tailored Gentleman's Cut — timeless side parts to modern fades and textured crops — to full Restyle Cuts for bigger changes and Young Lads Cuts for boys aged 7 to 12. Beard work includes razor and clipper trims plus a complete steam-and-razor grooming ritual, while the shave menu centres on the traditional hot towel clean shave. Scalp and skin care round it out: the Kymo Aqua Scalp Therapy head spa, scalp massage, men's facials, black hair and beard colouring, and red light therapy.
Every visit follows the group's four-step ritual — a welcome with freshly brewed coffee or calming tea in the lounge, a proper consultation, careful craftsmanship, and finishing with styling and aftercare advice. The Marina One chair team brings serious mileage, with barbers of 7, 13 and 20 years' experience, including alumni of well-known Singapore shops. Grooming packages like the Everyday Gentleman and Classic Gentleman bundle a cut with add-ons, and the shop's professional styling products and Truefitt & Hill range keep the look sharp at home.
Gentleman's Cuts Marina One is the downtown outpost of a Singapore barbershop group that runs on a simple promise: “Every cut, a masterpiece. Every client, a gentleman.” The group began at Tanglin Mall, grew into a conserved shophouse flagship at 9 Ann Siang Road — Heritage House — and now brings the same craft to the heart of Marina Bay, where this branch serves the professionals who work around Marina One and the wider CBD.
Marina One is described on the shop's own site as “classic barbering for the modern professional,” and that positioning shapes the whole experience. The shop sits at 8A Marina Boulevard on the B2 level — a short escape from the office for a cut between meetings or a proper shave before a big week. Where the Ann Siang flagship trades on heritage-shophouse romance, Marina One is the practical, polished city sibling: same standards, same rituals, minutes from the desk.
The service list is genuinely comprehensive for a barbershop. At its core is the Gentleman's Cut, a tailored 45-minute haircut spanning timeless side parts, modern fades and textured crops, with a Restyle Cut available for men making a bigger change — it comes with a detailed consultation before any scissors move. Boys aged 7 to 12 get their own Young Lads Cut, kept fun and fuss-free, and returning clients can book the 14 Days Gentleman's Trim, a tidy-up of neckline, sideburns and fringe reserved for those who visited within the past fortnight.
Beard and shave work is where the old-school credentials show. Beard trims come in two forms — clippers for a quick, natural tidy-up, or a razor finish for crisp, sculpted lines completed with a hot towel. The Complete Beard Trim with Steam and Razor Finish layers a deep cleanse, gentle exfoliation and warm steam before the razor, closing with a cool towel and post-shave care. The Hot Towel Clean Shave follows the traditional straight-razor ritual with warm lather, and there's a Clean Head Shave for the fully bald look.
Scalp and skin care round out the menu. The Kymo Aqua Scalp Therapy uses the Kymo Aqua Head Spa system, pairing Barba Italiana's detoxifying botanicals with warm, purified water jets to lift buildup and boost circulation. Add-ons include a 15-minute Scalp Massage with nourishing serum, the five-minute Gentleman's Refresh (an on-seat wash with a head and shoulder massage), a red light therapy session for skin and scalp, and two men's facials — an Express powder-mask treatment and a Cryo-Thermal facial using controlled cold and gentle heat. Black hair and beard colouring cover the greys. Packages bundle it together: the Everyday Gentleman (haircut plus an add-on) and the Classic Gentleman (haircut, beard grooming and one premium add-on).
The group formalises its experience into four steps. You're welcomed with freshly brewed coffee or calming tea in the lounge; your barber takes time over a consultation covering hair type, style preferences and grooming goals; the craft follows — precision scissor cuts, expert fades, straight razor work; and you leave styled and confident, with aftercare tips to keep the look sharp. Reviews across the group's chairs mention the coffee, the patience of the consultation, and barbers who recommend styles suited to the client's actual hair type.
The Marina One team lists three barbers on the site: Darren, with 20 years in the trade and time at Sultans of Shave; Davin, with 13 years; and Akmal, with 7 years and a background at ABL: Refined Artisan Barber Lounge in Joo Chiat. Across the wider group, seniority runs deep — head barbers with 17 to 25 years behind the chair — and the same craft standards apply at every location.
Bookings are made online through the website, where you select Marina One and your barber. The shop also retails the professional styling products its barbers use daily, dedicated hair wash and beard care lines, and classic Truefitt & Hill grooming — a British house trusted, as the site notes, for over two centuries. Gift vouchers are available for the gentleman in your life.
