In 1805, William Francis Truefitt
opened his first Gentlemen's Barber Shop at 2 Cross-Lane, Long Acre London. In
1811 he moved the business to 40 Old Bond Street and established himself as
"Court Hair Cutter" and "Court Head Dresser" where, along with his sole
employee, his brother Peter, he was soon to become Wigmaker, by Royal
Appointment to His Majesty, King George III. 
Throughout
the early part of the 19th century, when regular visits to the barber were
essential to facilitate the wearing of wigs by Gentlemen, Old Bond
Street became increasingly more fashionable and the Truefitt's barber shop
flourished.
In 1911 Edwin Hill & Co. set up a barber shop at 23
Old Bond Street, and it was to this address H.P. Truefit (Francis Truefitt's
nephew) moved in 1935 to form, the still existing, Truefitt & Hill. Other
Truefitt regional outlets were merged into the present company in 1941.
The present location of Truefitt & Hill at 71 St. James's Street, London,
was taken up on Valentine's Day 1994.
Truefitt & Hill occupies the
position of one of the leading men's barber shops in the World. Glancing at the
appointments book, it reads like pages from Debrett's and Who's Who. Clients
include Members of the male line of the Royal Family, Members of visiting Royal
Households, Captains of Industry, Members of both Houses of Parliament, the
City, the Theatre, Ambassadors and the Diplomatic Service, visiting Dignitaries,
the Professions, the Arts, and all other strata of British Society. A haircut, a
shave with hot towels, and a manicure at Truefitt & Hill leaves a gentlemen
ready to face the world knowing that he has been well and truly groomed for the
occasion, whatever it may be, by one of England's Hairdressing Aristocracy | PAYMENT DUE 5DAYS OF AUCTION CLOSE
