Friends, feel free to use our discount code to level up your wet shave game.

Blackbird is designed, machined, and finished in the United States. With looks inspired by the iconic SR-71 "Blackbird" reconnaissance aircraft, the Blackbird razor is as visually striking as it is functional.

This is a very sleek and eye-catching razor — it feels like a piece of fine jewelry. I told my wife that one day my son will own this razor.

Worth the investment!

With Noah Kahan's album "The Great Divide" at #1 in the United States right now, I keep coming back to a gig from two years ago.

The New York Times hired me to cut and style his hair at his dad's house in Strafford, Vermont. When I got the call I didn't actually know who he was, but I listened to his album Stick Season on the drive up.

I arrived early and was greeted by Josh — Noah's dad — who made me coffee, introduced me to their dogs, and walked me around the house and the loft where Noah stayed during COVID and wrote the album. If you know Stick Season, he really did have empty orange juice bottles lined up on the wall.

I offered Josh a haircut while we waited, since Noah was grabbing a sandwich in town. Josh had suffered a traumatic brain injury from a bicycle accident years prior, rarely left the property, and had been cutting his own hair for a long time — a self-described hermit. He wasn't expecting a barber at his house that day, let alone a haircut in his own living room.

Noah arrived and Josh stayed with us in the room while Noah shared the details of his recent engagement — he'd proposed in Mexico at a festival the month prior. We figured out that Noah and I had lived three blocks from each other in Watertown, MA, where his girlfriend at the time was teaching and I was running City Wine Tours in Boston. We talked about Nashville and New York and of course Vermont. He'd been a struggling singer-songwriter for a decade before his first break. All of this new fame was palpable.

I could feel something in that room. A father who raised his son in a small Vermont town — he'd sweetly call him "Noahy" — who watched him leave and watched the whole world claim him. And a son still trying to be both things at once.

That kind of love doesn't always sound like pride. Sometimes it sounds like "two hundred years we laid bricks in the dirt" and "you ain't a goddamn hero 'cause you cry on live TV."

A lot of people think "Haircut" is about a fellow musician. I'm not so sure. I was in that room. I just didn't know I was watching a song get written.

Take a listen!

Honored to have welcomed the Foo Fighters and Frankie and the Witch Fingers to Total Mortgage Arena for a SOLD-OUT, nearly three-hour set from one of the world’s greatest rock bands.

We had the opportunity to spend two days on-site, pampering arena staff, local crews, tour management, the band, and their families—delivering a great experience here in Connecticut.

Truly inspiring to work alongside so many talented and committed team members who bring these performances to life.

Special thanks to Marc, Cameron, and Joe for the trust in us.

Eleanor + Alex // Boston Public Library

Inspired by the works of Alphonse Mucha, E.A. Abbey, and the Belle Époque, Whim Events created a dramatic and elegant wedding at the historic Boston Public Library.

For Eleanor, a librarian, and Alex, an artist, they drew from the Belle Époque to create a night that felt less like an event and more like a story guests were invited to step inside.

Alex treated his best men to traditional straight-razor shaves, haircuts, styling, massages, and facials, paired with bourbon and ci**rs.

Congratulations to you both and thank you for the opportunity! Truly one of the most well executed weddings I have had the honor of serving.

One of the greatest honors in this work is being invited back—to care for the next man walking down the aisle.

For Jackie (Mother of the Bride), it meant making sure both of her sons-in-law were truly taken care of. First for Kelsey & Ron in December 2023, then again for Amanda & Nick in October 2025. A beautiful, growing family—led by Jackie & Peter, who poured everything into giving their daughters the celebrations they deserved.

For Nick and his best men, we delivered the full experience: traditional hot towel shaves, precision haircuts, facials, massage, and styling—finished with fine bourbon and ci**rs. A room full of NYC detectives made it one for the books.

Jackie later wrote something I’ll never forget:
“...I’m sad we have no more children to marry because Christian would have been a part of those weddings as well. Again…Christian takes enormous pride in what he does which is reflected in the service he provides. Simply amazing.”

Truly one of the greatest compliments I’ve ever received.

I’m honored to be invited back once again—this time for cousin Ben’s wedding on Friday, November 20, 2026 at Park Savoy. It will be my third visit with this incredible family, and I’ll be caring for Ron, Peter, & Billy as they get ready for another unforgettable day.

To Amanda & Nick—congratulations on your marriage. And to Kelsey & Ron—happy anniversary! Thank you Jackie & Peter for the opportunity to care for your family on such momentous days of your life!

Every winter for the past 10 years, we take a step back to reset, refine, and improve what we do. It’s become part of our rhythm — rebuilding behind the scenes so we can come back stronger each spring.

This year marks a special milestone, and we’re excited to share the result.

We’ve officially launched refreshed, fully redesigned websites for both of our brands:

https://www.doorbellbarbers.com/

https://www.doorbellsalon.com/

Both sites reflect who we are today and where we’re going — with a better experience for our clients and partners.

We’d love for you to take a look and let us know what you think.

What an honor it was to serve the crew and band of Brandon Lake and Franni Cash at Total Mortgage Arena in Bridgeport on March 14th.

Our team provided haircuts, beard trims, styling, and massages for these hardworking performers, crew, drivers, managers & techs. Collaborating with Mariah from Sacred Touch Spa made it all possible. She absolutely crushed it — 13 hours on her feet (no breaks!), and a positive attitude from start to finish. Well done, Mariah!

A highlight of the day was meeting Jeremy from World Vision U.S. Programs who is doing the deeply meaningful work of giving children in poverty the gift of nourishment and support. And speaking of World Vision — so proud of our own team member Ariana, who was inspired on the spot to sponsor a child from Uganda. That moment meant everything. Well done, Ariana!

Brandon Lake, Franni Cash, and their entire crew were every bit as gracious as you'd hope — kind, present, and genuinely grateful to be in Connecticut, even coming off four back-to-back nights of performances on the East Coast. You would never have known the miles they had on them.

Thankful for every moment of this one.

An unforgettable wedding morning in the Green Mountains with an incredible crew and an even better couple. We had the honor of getting Sean, his groomsmen and the father's looking sharp with precision haircuts, straight razor shaves, facials and massages — all delivered on-location for a smooth, stress-free start to the day.

Sean and McKenzie were married at the Lincoln family home at Hildene — such a beautiful, historic setting for a Vermont fall wedding. Big shout-out to , who I worked alongside to make sure everything ran seamlessly.
