Romain

Sometimes, the best innovations come from the oldest traditions.

Inspired by a recipe discovered in historic barber books, we created a shaving essential with just three natural ingredients. Nothing more. Nothing less.

This versatile formula protects and hydrates the skin during a traditional wet shave, while also nourishing and calming the skin after shaving. One product. Two purposes. Consistent results.

Fragrance-free and crafted by a Belgian pharmacy, it’s ideal for sensitive skin and for anyone who values pure, effective skincare without unnecessary additives.

A true essential in the ROMAIN shaving routine.

The perfect setup for the Scapicchio Academy.

At the Scapicchio Academy, we believe that mastering traditional wet shaving starts with the right tools and the highest standards.

That’s why we work with the complete Captain Fawcett shaving range, including pre-shave, shaving soap, and aftershave. Every student learns professional shaving techniques using products trusted by barbers around the world.

Hygiene is just as important as technique. Together with our partner Novicide, we follow a strict sanitation protocol to disinfect both straight razors and shaving brushes, while our premium razors from ROMAIN ensure precision and consistency in every shave.

No unnecessary extras. Just quality, craftsmanship, and the professional equipment every great barber deserves.

The ROMAIN Gentlemen Conditioning Oil

A fragrance-free conditioning oil created for men who appreciate simplicity and authenticity. Suitable as a beard oil, a pre-shave oil, or as daily nourishment for the skin.

This oil has been part of the daily shaving ritual at ROMAIN for over 10 years. After countless requests from our clients, we decided to make it available.

Handcrafted by a local pharmacy in Ghent, Belgium, using only 100% natural ingredients. No fragrances, no chemicals, no stabilisers, and no unnecessary additives.

STRAIGHT RAZOR COLLECTION COMPLETE.

If you’ve followed ROMAIN for a while, you already know we have a weakness for great steel.

Not because it’s expensive.
Not because it’s rare.
But because every razor tells a story.

Today, our collection is officially complete.

⚔️ 23 mm Kamisori
⚔️ 6/8 Hollow Grind
⚔️ 6/8 Full Wedge
⚔️ 8/8 Full Wedge
⚔️ 10/8 Full Wedge

The 10/8 is a true monster. A reminder of a time when razors were built without compromise and made to serve generations of barbers.

As many of our students know, we have always been passionate about Full Wedge razors. Their stability, reduced vibration, and smooth feel on sensitive skin make them a favourite in our daily work and education.

This is more than a collection.

It is a living archive of traditional barbering, straight razor shaving, honing, and craftsmanship.

And the best part?

Made on Belgian soil. 🇧🇪

For the barber, the collector, and the enthusiast who understands that a great shave starts long before the blade touches the skin.

Save this post if you’re a straight razor enthusiast.

Some people wait for opportunities. Others take them by the throat and make something of them.

When Niels first walked through our doors, he was looking for more than a job. Like many young men, he was searching for direction, purpose, and a place where his efforts actually mattered. Today, he manages the oldest barbershop in Belgium, and watching that transformation has been one of the most rewarding parts of this journey.

This isn’t about likes, followers, or algorithms.

It’s about something far more valuable.

It’s about human connection.

A barber’s work has never really been about hair. Hair grows back. What remains is how a person felt when they sat in your chair. Whether they felt seen. Whether they felt listened to. Whether they left carrying themselves a little taller than when they arrived.

That’s the real craft.

To make another human being feel good. To care for them. To give them an hour away from the noise of the world.

Simple as that.

Niels understands this. Not because someone taught him to say the right things, but because he genuinely cares. And once a person finds that passion, something remarkable happens: they begin to bloom. Confidence grows. Skills improve. Responsibility becomes a privilege rather than a burden.

The scissors, the razors, the techniques—they can all be learned.

Character cannot.

And that’s why we’re proud of his progress.

His father certainly is.

And so are we.
