Tonio
the guv'nor
Third generation on this chair. If it suits you, he will say so. If it does not, he will say that too.
Jean
the fade man
Lives for a clean skin fade and a crisp line. Quiet until you get him onto football.
Sam
razors & beards
Old-school hot-towel shaves and beard work. The steady hand of the shop.
Best fade in Valletta, and the only barber who tells me straight when a style will not suit me.
