Silom’s new den of male grooming comes from a former face at Black Amber, Pongpitaya “Nuii” Charoensap.

Named for its five barbers, Five Prows looks very much the standard gentlemen’s cave—wooden floors, dark walls, leather sofas—but its prices are refreshingly on the cheaper side.

In fact, the whole vibe is more relaxing—no guys in waistcoats here! Haircuts cost B500 while a hot towel shave is B400.
