A fresh cut before Funke

Funke is chef Evan Funke's multi-level Italian restaurant in Beverly Hills, with a glass-walled pasta lab and a rooftop bar. Diners come for handmade pasta and a busy evening scene.

Guests with a dinner booking or rooftop plans often book a cut earlier in the day. Nearby hotels make a quick session before the reservation easy. There is no salon to find and no waiting room. Ben comes up to the room, works neatly, and is gone before the next call time.

The barber comes to you, at any hour.

The work comes from seventeen-plus years of practice, dual licenses in barbering and cosmetology across multiple states, and four barbershops of his own. Ben has cut for recording artists, NBA and NFL players and Supreme skaters, and he treats a first-time client with the same care. Expect fades blended without a visible line, tapers that grow out cleanly, line-ups drawn with a steady hand and beards shaped to the jaw. Straight hair, waves, curls and locs all get the same attention.

Funke is at 9388 S Santa Monica Blvd, Beverly Hills, CA 90210, near Rodeo Drive, The Beverly Hilton and Spago Beverly Hills. Ben meets clients at nearby hotels and homes in Beverly Hills and Century City, Bel-Air and Beverly Grove, and on site where access allows.

There is one way to book and it is fast: a call or a text to 608-201-7717. He is available 24/7, including holidays. Haircuts start at $150, the standard daytime rate is $300, and travel distance and time of day set the final number.
