Ironclad Barbers
A three-chair barbershop that currently runs entirely from a social profile, loses bookings to the phone going unanswered mid-cut, and cannot be found by anyone searching for a barber nearby.
Why it looks like this.
A barbershop is chosen on atmosphere as much as price, so the page opens in the dark with one lit object: a barber's pole modelled and rendered in Blender, brass caps and glass tube, its cream and oxblood stripes climbing on an endless loop. A huge hairline IRON / CLAD in Josefin Sans splits around it, the second word drawn only in a brass outline, and the two halves pull apart as you scroll. The rest of the page reads like a dark men's magazine: Spectral serif headings with italic brass accents, numbered sections, photographs captioned as plates, and the three most-asked-for cuts laid out as spreads with chair time and price. Prices hang on a gilt-framed black-glass board with gold-leaf lettering and a slow light sweep across the glass. A cream "walk in, or book" section breaks the dark, then a book-a-chair picker, the hours and a find-us panel. Faint film grain sits over everything.

What this build does differently.
Blender barber pole, lit in black and brass, on a seamless loop
Says barbershop instantly, and gives the shop a signature image no stock photo can match.
Gilt-framed black-glass price board with dotted leaders
Every cut and its price is readable at a glance, just like the board on the shop wall.
Numbered plates for the three most-asked-for cuts, with chair time and price
Shows what each service involves and costs, so there are no extras at the till.
Book-a-chair picker by service and day
Lets customers grab a Saturday time before it fills, with no account or deposit.
Seven-day hours with a Gloucester Road find-us panel
Answers the two practical questions, when are you open and where are you, in one place.

A mixed NHS and private practice losing registration enquiries because nobody can tell from the website whether it is taking NHS patients, and losing private treatment enquiries because no prices are published anywhere.
