Old School vs New School: A Fusion of Barbering Styles
Introduction:
In the realm of barbering, the clash of old school traditions and new school innovations has given rise to a captivating collaboration. This fusion of classic and contemporary approaches brings together the talents of Kevin Boon, an internationally acclaimed new school barber, and Stijn, the owner of ROMAIN Barbershop, specializing in old-school techniques. To add an international flair to the mix, we welcomed the renowned barber, Danilo Alfonso from Brazil, to delve deeper into the realm of classic haircuts. This unique partnership showcases the harmonious coexistence of two contrasting worlds in the barbering domain.
Our Shared Vision:
The driving force behind this collaboration was the shared passion and dedication of Kevin and Stijn. Each possesses a unique skill set and is committed to the pursuit of excellence in their respective styles. Stijn’s expertise lies in traditional shaving techniques, including the art of using a straight razor and a fixed blade. In contrast, Kevin draws inspiration from modern trends, diligently crafting both fashion-forward hairstyles and cutting-edge looks.
A Cigar-Infused Conception:
It all began with a relaxed cigar session where Kevin and Stijn discovered a shared enthusiasm for the idea of collaboration. What emerged was a groundbreaking concept – an amalgamation of time-honored traditions with a contemporary twist. The brainchild of this union? A grooming experience that marries the finesse of a straight razor shave by Stijn with a cutting-edge haircut by Kevin.
An Unexpected Guest Barber:
In the midst of this creative synergy, we had the privilege of hosting none other than Danilo Alfonso, a maestro of classic barbering techniques, who graced ROMAIN for an entire month. His presence further enriched the classical concept initiated by Stijn, hinting at exciting future prospects.
Echoes of Passion:
This concept resonated with enthusiasts and served as a powerful testament to what barbers truly stand for – the unwavering passion to make others look and feel their absolute best, each in their own distinctive style.
In this exciting collaboration, the fusion of old school and new school is not just about hairstyles; it’s a celebration of craftsmanship, innovation, and the timeless art of grooming. Stay tuned for more remarkable journeys at ROMAIN Barbershop, where tradition meets modernity in the most stylish way possible.
