Royal Package Singapore is the most complete grooming experience The British Barbers offers. It is the service we recommend once, and only when it is asked for.
Two hours in the chair. A Master Barber. A Royal Haircut, an Ultimate British Shave, a Hair Spa, and a beard sculpt, performed in the order that produces the best version of you that week.
Royal Haircut, by the Master himself, scissors over comb, finished by hand
Ultimate British Shave, three rounds of preparation, two passes of the straight razor, the longest shave we perform
Hair Spa, scalp assessment, warm steam, professional tonic, balancing wash
Beard sculpting, defined neckline, cheek line, and shape, tailored to your face
Service: Royal Package, SGD 325
This is not a service that men book casually. It is booked deliberately.
The groom, three days before his wedding
The father of the bride, the morning of
The visiting executive, the day before a board meeting
The diplomat, the week before being received
The gentleman returning from a long stretch away from his usual rituals
It is also the service most often gifted by wives and partners, a quiet way of saying you have been working hard, and you deserve two hours in which nothing is asked of you.
None of the four services in the Royal Package can be rushed. The Hair Spa needs its time on the scalp. The Royal Haircut needs its time of consultation and unhurried scissor work. The Ultimate British Shave needs three rounds of preparation before the blade touches the skin. The beard sculpt needs the patience of a man who has shaped a thousand jaw lines.
Two hours is what it takes to do all four properly. We do not offer a shorter version.
The Royal Package is performed by Mr Hassan El Gamal personally. It is not offered with our senior team.
Hassan began his journey in male grooming in 1999 under the Egyptian Barbers Academy, earning his Master Barber distinction in 2004. He is a guild-accredited member of both the British Barbers Association and the Egyptian Barbers Academy.
Before opening The British Barbers in Singapore, he was the private barber to His Highness Sheikh Nasser bin Hamad Al Khalifa, son of the King of Bahrain. He has performed the equivalent of this service for ministers, ambassadors, and chief executives whose names remain private out of respect and discretion.
The shop runs as normal during a Royal Package. Other gentlemen come and go. The quiet conversation of regular barbering surrounds you. There is no special room, there is the same chair we reserve for the Master’s clients, in a heritage shophouse in Chinatown, with the steady hand of someone who has done this for twenty-five years.
