Celebrate Our 2 Year Anniversary Of Being The Best Damn Men’s Website!

Gents,

On November 18, 2012 we published our first article about Opening Doors and since thenopening doors screen shot we have not only continued to write about Style, Grooming & Life but we also turned men’s publications right side up. We just celebrated our 1 year anniversary of The Avenue Men’s Magazine that contains no BS, no FLUFF!

Our websites first year produced alot of attention and we received a little over 1.2 million hits and this past year we increased to 1.5 million! It appears that individuals from all over the world enjoy our articles, features, reviews and FREE digital magazine.

We have written about everyone from world famous barbers Schorem Haarsnijder en gent_ave_coverBarbier from Rotterdam, Netherlands to barber legend and pomade pioneer Donnie Hawley to Reb Kennedy founder of Wild Records. We also enjoy writing about events, people and companies from all over the world.

We remain committed to being the best damn resource for men who seek authentic tradition and distinction. Being a gentle-man has nothing to do with ancestry or economic class but will always be rooted in the choices you make in life.

We are launching many projects in 2015 and look forward to a bright future of kicking ass and not even bothering to write their names! Stay tuned for the first ever modern history book about, The Revival Of The Traditional Barber Shop and the first ever Traditional Barber Journal.

More importantly we would like to thank you, our readers, who have not only liked and followed our endeavors but also shared our message and spread the gospel of manliness. Also a huge thanks to the people who have opened up their lives to us and the countless companies who have shared their products with our readers.

Keeping The Barbering Tradition Alive, Schorem Haarsnijder en Barbier- The Avenue Men’s Magazine Fall 2013 Re-Release!

Editors Note: The complete article can be found in our inaugural The Avenue Men’s Magazine Fall 2013 issue. Click on the link below to purchase a hard or digital copy. 

Schorem crew black and whiteDuring the 1960’s and 70’s the Netherlands was heavily influenced by the Rolling Stones and the Beatles music, style and fashion. Young men wanted the Stones or Beatles look but many barbershops could not create it so they went to salons for haircuts and barbershops were becoming irrelevant. The music, fashion and style influence was so great the craft of barbering was beginning to disappear.

Two Gentlemen, Bertus and Leen are keeping the craft of barbering alive in the Netherlands and fueling an international revival.

Bertus was one of the last students at a barber school that offered training in Gentlemen haircuts. Sadly, the schools in the Netherlands only have unisex training where men learn perms and hair coloring.

Bertus and Leen, the Scumfathers, each have 22 years of experience barbering. In 2011 they decided to open a barbershop and according to Bertus, “we really wanted to 04-Daan_Schorem smaller versionopen a shop for men only as an answer to all the unisex shops where men are forced to sit next to women with thousands of foils in their hair, getting a haircut by some sixteen year old girl fresh out of beauty school with no experience with men’s hair.” The barbershop is called Schorem Haarsnijder en Barbier located in Rotterdam, Netherlands. The word “Schorem” means Scumbag.

I was amazed to learn there are no appointments at the shop, Gentlemen, you will have to sit and wait your turn. You might be wondering what if a superstar or billionaire came in would they let them cut to the front? But according to Bertus, “we never take appointments, not even if your the emperor of China, we think one of the main reasons guys go to a barbershop is to escape from their every day routine and chat with their peers.” The shop is also “woman-free” because they want Gentlemen to be themselves without having to change their attitudes, jokes or personalities…..
