Sultans of Shave describes itself as the 'Home of The Contemporary Gentleman,' a Singapore barbershop and grooming brand built on a passion for the craft of male grooming. The brand's story traces the barbering trade back through history, from its place serving Egyptian pharaohs and Sultans of the Ottoman Empire to its more recent association with the British royal family - a reminder that barbering has always been more than a haircut.
Sultans of Shave runs two barbershops in Singapore: one at Palais Renaissance on Orchard Road, and one at North Canal Road near Raffles Place. Both locations are set up for walk-ins and appointments, bookable online, and customer reviews describe a consistent experience across both - a classic, old-school, gentlemanly atmosphere paired with a sleek, low-key modern minimalist feel.
Reviews repeatedly single out named barbers for their skill and attentiveness, describing deluxe haircuts with crisp high fades, seamless blends of classic barbering technique with modern refinement, and clean, precise scissor work tailored to each customer's face and lifestyle. Beard trims are another regular request, with barbers using machine, razor, and hot and cold towels to leave the beard fresh and clean. Facials and shaves round out the core service list, often booked together as a full grooming visit.
What comes through most in the reviews is the attentiveness of the consultation process - barbers are described as listening carefully before cutting, rather than working from a fixed template, and customers frequently mention leaving with more confidence than they walked in with.
Beyond the chair, Sultans of Shave sells its own curated range of grooming products online, spanning shaving essentials and accessories, hair care, bath and shower products, cosmetics and skincare, fragrances and travel accessories. Featured products include the Barba Italiana Caronte Beard Potion, a volumizing beard treatment with a refreshing sensation, the Boardwalk Strong Hold Pomade for easy styling without dryness or dandruff, and the Boardwalk Style Lock Spray, a non-aerosol, Aloe Vera-based finishing hairspray.
Sultans of Shave has been featured across Singapore media, including CNA Lifestyle, The Business Times, The Straits Times, Beauty Insider, and other lifestyle publications, reflecting its standing among Singapore's men's grooming destinations.
Both Sultans of Shave outlets are open daily, with appointments bookable online, and each location listed with its own WhatsApp and outlet phone number for enquiries. For visitors deciding between locations, reviews suggest the experience is consistent whether you head to Orchard Road or Raffles Place.
