I will pay 30, I think thats ok for sitting in a chair for 20 mins and having a chat

I spoke to Trufitt and Hill and they will shave you with your own straight if you pre arrange it. I always get a great service from them, so will give it a go.

I agree that £75 is very steep and I can't afford but Trumper's have been around for more than a hundred years so they've sat on the bandwagon while it's disappeared and been rebuilt beneath them rather than jumped on it. Also, the nearest barber to me charges £25 just for a straight shave which I guess takes no more than 30 mins so in some ways £75 for 90 mins of a top barber's time isn't terrible vfm but it's still a lot to lay out in one go. Trumper's soap, scent and skinfood are top notch and worth the high prices - there's an episode of Poirot where everyone is astonished because Poirot has paid Trumper five guineas for a bottle of scent - but that's not to say their barber consultations are worth £75.
