- Last year, we visited Oi Kwan Barbers in Hong Kong for a relaxing traditional hot towel wet shave with a pre-shave facial cleansing. For 58 years Oi Kwan Barbers has been serving the local community around Spring Garden Lane in the Wan Chai district of Hong Kong. Originally opened by Master Lau who was from from China’s Guangdong Province and came to Hong Kong in the 1950s. The shop is now operated by his son Mark Lau.

In 2017 Mark opened a second new shop, featured in this video, on Mallory Street and located in a restored historic Chinese house shop building. The shop was a tribute to his late father and Guangdong barbering culture. Considered a middle class barbershop, the space was a respite from Hong Kong’s urban jungle where a customer indulges in a personalized shave or haircut service.
Mark’s intention was always to preserve a part of Hong Kong’s community barbering history. Sadly, a combination of the pro-democracy demonstrations last year and the pandemic this year has had a major impact on small businesses around the world.
Mark let us know he recently had to permanently close the Mallory Street shop where we filmed this video.
However, the Spring Garden Lane shop is still going, and offers an opportunity for you to feel the original Hong Kong style of barbering. Check them out next time you are in Hong Kong!

Anyone else watch these purely for this pre and post shave things?
The slight adjustments to his glasses every now and then. Yes a man of culture indeed.
Nothing calms me more than watching Harry get a class shave. Much love.
you know its special when they use the products from the glass cabinet
Nothing makes me more happy than seeing a man making an honest living 😊
Women have their beauty salons and we have Barber Shops....
There is nothing better then watching HairCut Harry after a long day.
My nights sorted. Who needs sleeping pills when you got Harry.
I swear the best sounds come from them going through drawers.
That shave cream was made more precise than most baking recipes
Harry has gone from this legendary shave to mach 3 Gillettes. Hang in there, buddy.
This looks so relaxing! My husband HATES shaving, but the onetime I dragged him to a barber for a shave, he loved it. He’d love this channel.
With those skilled and gentle hands and the towel on his eyes my man just took a nap right there and woke up freshly shaved. Incredible work ethic and the whole experience was filled with respect.
I love how the barber's chair still has an ashtray in the armrest. Not that anybody still smokes, but it reminds me of the old days!
I just love the aesthetics of the shop, it’s a mixture between classic and modern that makes everything clean ,professional and calm
Legend Has It He Is Still Preparing For The Shave Til This Day
Really fascinating watching the whole process. I enjoyed this as much as your famous “are you comfortable sir?” shave video
you can see in someone face, that they enjoy and proud of their job.
It's good he grates the soap..its more hygienic that way.
