What to Expect

Your Hot Towel Shave Experience at Pro Look

A hot towel shave at Pro Look is a complete ritual. Your barber applies a hot towel to open the pores, follows with pre-shave oil, applies lathered shaving cream with a badger-hair brush, then uses a straight razor for a clean, close shave with and against the grain. A cold towel closes the pores. Aftershave balm finishes the service.
  1. Hot towel application — Warm towel placed on your face for 2–3 minutes. Softens beard hair and opens pores.
  2. Pre-shave oil — Applied to create a protective barrier and further soften stubble.
  3. Shaving cream — Rich lather applied with a badger-hair brush to lift beard hair for a closer cut.
  4. Straight razor shave — Shave with and against the grain, adjusting pressure and angle for your face shape.
  5. Cold towel close — Cold towel closes pores and reduces any redness.
  6. Aftercare finish — Soothing aftershave balm or lotion applied to condition and protect skin.

Why It Works

Why Hot Towels Improve the Shave

The hot towel isn’t just for comfort — it’s doing real work before the razor ever touches your skin.
  • ✓ Softens coarse beard hair so the razor cuts cleanly instead of tugging
  • ✓ Hydrates the skin, making it more pliable and easier to shave close
  • ✓ Opens pores, which reduces friction and drag from the blade
  • ✓ Improves overall comfort throughout the shave
  • ✓ Helps prevent razor burn by reducing the pressure needed for a close shave

FAQs

Hot Towel Shave Questions Answered

How much does a hot towel shave cost at Pro Look Gents Salon?
A hot towel shave starts from AED 95. This includes the full ritual: hot towel application, pre-shave oil, shaving cream, straight-razor shave, cold towel and aftercare balm.
Is a hot towel shave good for sensitive skin?
Yes — when done correctly by an experienced barber. The hot towel softens hair and opens pores, reducing drag. Cold towel and aftercare products close pores and soothe any redness afterwards.
How often should I get a professional shave?
Most men find a professional shave every 1–2 weeks ideal for maintaining smooth, healthy skin. Between visits, shaving at home with proper technique and aftercare keeps skin in good condition.
Can I combine a hot towel shave with a haircut?
Yes. Book the Shave & Beard Shape combo at AED 140, or book a haircut and shave in the same appointment via Setmore. Our barbers coordinate both services seamlessly.
Do you offer head shaves at Pro Look?
Yes. A full head shave with warm towels and a straight razor or clipper is available from AED 80. Includes post-shave scalp treatment.
How long does a hot towel shave take?
A standard Hot Towel Shave takes around 30–40 minutes. Adding a beard shape brings the full Shave & Beard Shape appointment to 50–60 minutes.
Is a straight razor shave safe?
Yes — it’s performed by an experienced barber using sanitised tools and a fresh blade for every client, with the hot towel and pre-shave oil steps designed to reduce drag and irritation.
Should I shave at home before my appointment?
No need — arrive with your normal stubble or beard. Your barber will assess your hair growth and skin before starting the shave.
Can I book a hot towel shave online?
Yes — book instantly via our online Setmore booking page, or message us on WhatsApp to arrange a time.
Do you accept walk-ins for a hot towel shave?
Yes, walk-ins are welcome daily. Booking ahead is recommended for evenings and weekends, our busiest times.
How soon before my wedding should I book a hot towel shave?
A shave the day before or morning of the event gives the freshest finish. If you have sensitive skin, consider a trial shave a week or two earlier to see how your skin reacts.
Does a hot towel shave help prevent razor burn?
Yes. The warm towel softens beard hair while pre-shave oil reduces friction, helping minimise irritation and razor burn.
What’s included in a hot towel shave?
The service includes hot towels, pre-shave oil, shaving cream, straight-razor shave, cold towel and soothing aftercare.
