Built:  Saikou Gassama

A cinematic Stockholm barbershop site, built from scratch.

Stack & tools:

HTML / CSS / JavaScript

Editorial typography (Fraunces)

Custom cursor & scroll motion

Mobile-first, no framework

Best Barber Alive is a one-chair barbershop in central Stockholm — known on Instagram as @bb_alive — handling cuts, fades, braids, twists, locs, and kids' styles. The shop's reputation lived on Instagram, but bookings via DM were eating up time and there was no real Google presence.

I designed and built a single-page editorial site that treats the barber's work like fashion photography: full-bleed cinematic hero, asymmetric magazine gallery, serif italic typography, and a custom cursor. Closer to an Aimé Leon Dore lookbook than a typical barber site — positioning the work the way the work deserves.

Built in plain HTML/CSS/JS, no framework, optimized for mobile. Photography by the barber. Deployed free on Netlify.
