What to know before you book

Whisk is by appointment only. Here is how booking, notice and tipping work.

Booking and deposits

Every visit is booked on the booking page, by phone or by text. First shaves, long visits and the shave club take a deposit that holds your time and goes toward your visit.

Canceling and running late

Move or cancel with at least 24 hours' notice by phone, text or the booking page. We keep your visit for 10 minutes after your time. After that your barber may shorten it so the next client starts on time.

If you miss an appointment

If you miss a visit without telling us, your deposit stays with the shop and the chair goes back on the calendar. Call us and we will find another time.

Children and companions

Whisk serves adults and teenagers 16 and older. Anyone under 18 comes with a parent or guardian who stays in the shop. A companion may wait in the front.

If you're not happy

Tell us within a few days and we'll make it right.

Tipping

Tipping is welcome and never expected. Leave it in cash or when you pay by card, and it goes to the barber who served you.

How the line works

Whisk takes appointments only, so there is no walk-in line and no board. Your barber starts at your booked time. If the visit before yours is running long, we text you so you know.

Before your visit

Come as you are. A few days of growth gives your barber more to work with, and you do not need to shave first. Tell us about sensitive skin or a nick that has not healed when you book.
