ROMAIN -Coupure est. 1884-

The Oldest House — ROMAIN Coupure

ROMAIN Coupure stands in the oldest barbershop in Belgium, a place where the craft has never stopped. This is where heritage is lived, not displayed, and where daily practice connects past and present.

It is here that the Academy takes place, in close collaboration with the Scapicchio family, the oldest family of barbering in the world. Together, tradition, discipline, and knowledge are passed on chair by chair, generation by generation.
