Philosophy

We remove what does not belong. What remains is you, unhurried, at ease, and dressed for the day.

Subtraction is an appointment-only barbershop in San Francisco's Mission District, grounded in about twenty years of professional experience. The work begins with the person in the chair: their hair texture, their style, and how they want the cut to live day to day.

The focus is men's haircuts across all hair textures, with particular attention to scissor cuts, fades, lineups, and beard trims. Each appointment is considered carefully, with technique shaped around the individual rather than a single formula.
