The brief

What the website had to do

Barbershop customers want three things: what it costs, who will cut their hair, and when they can come in. The site has to answer all three quickly, with the character of a proper traditional shop.

The approach

How the design answers it

Condensed uppercase headings, a charcoal and gold palette and a barber pole animated entirely in CSS give the shop its personality. The price menu uses dot leaders like a printed board, and each barber has a short profile with their speciality. A numbers strip, an illustrated gallery, reviews and opening hours complete the page, all leading to one booking button.
