The Shave Cave Announces Plans for Expansion, New Downtown St. Pete Location

Locally owned St. Petersburg Barbershop to Relocate, Doubling in Size.

Tampa Bay, FLA (June 18, 2019) – The Shave Cave, a classic barbershop for the modern man, currently located in the Sundial has announced plans to relocate, doubling its size. The new location went under construction just last month with plans for a grand opening this fall. Located at 215 1st Street North in St. Petersburg, the new location is about 50 yards from the current storefront. The new 1200 sq. ft. barbershop will feature six state-of-the-art barbering stations, a craft beer and wine lounge, big screen tv’s, snacks, and an arcade – a haven for relaxation and comradery.

“I love St. Pete”, says Max Glazer, owner. “I couldn’t imagine growing anywhere else. Our commitment to our clients has fueled growth, and we’ve simply outgrown our current space. The new location will provide us the opportunity to better serve our guests, host larger groups, and offer more to our current and future clients. We can’t thank Mr. Edwards and the Sundial enough for the first five years, and we are looking forward to many years to come.”

The construction involves combining two spaces at the newly named Morgan and Morgan building’s 1st Street strip, neighboring Karma Juice Bar & Eatery. The project entails a complete gut with all new electrical, plumbing and HVAC systems.

THE BARBERSHOP

Outfitted with six state of the art barber stations, the barbershop offers a lengthy line up of pampering for the modern man. Haircuts, buzz cuts, clean ups, beard trims, and hot towel straight razor shaves are offered. Services range from $15 to $45. For a full list of services:www.TheShaveCave.com/menu

THE FUN

The new location includes a craft beer and wine lounge with 6 taps, pouring locally brewed crafts such as St. Pete Brewing and Flying Boat Brewery. The buildout also includes five 65” flat screens with sports and automotive packages, a snack bar, a coffee station and even an arcade with classics such as Pacman and Golden T.

“The lounge is designed to accommodate parties such as groomsmen and birthday parties, and is open to anyone when not reserved.” says Max. “Creating an environment where guests can truly relax and enjoy their time with us was the goal, and we hope our existing and future clients alike will dig the new space.”

The retail shop features a wide variety of men’s grooming products, crafted locally in St. Petersburg. Products include beard oils, beard balms, pre-shave oils, shaving creams, aftershaves, razors, and much more. www.ShopShaveCave.com

THE HISTORY

The Shave Cave all started as an idea rooted in the love of the classic early 1900’s barber shops. Max had been brainstorming and working for a few years on the concept of a vintage barber shop offering high end services paired with a new product line he had been developing. He noted the resurgence of barbershops and knew that today’s man needed a place to feel pampered and relaxed, leaving with a new sense of self confidence. The comradery, closeness, and fun-loving feel within The Shave Cave is exactly how you could describe St. Petersburg, Florida.

Max and his brother Neil were working in online sales of men’s grooming products for five years at their warehouse at Albert Whitted Airport. When Max found out about space for lease at Sundial St. Pete, he seized the opportunity. He immediately contacted the Edward’s Group and pitched his idea. After a few hours of brainstorming with Mr. Edwards and the Sundial team, his dream was quickly becoming a reality. Max’s previous careers in construction management, architectural design and online retailing of grooming products are incorporated into The Shave Cave from top to bottom.
