Welcome to your heart's true desire... Hair Styling.
You will cut, shave, color, and style people’s hair & facial hair in your own barbershop in VR.
Unlock a tattoo salon and more while at it.
The Game of The Play
Shave & Stuff introduces your very own barbershop and tattoo salon. After reaching a certain number of stars in the barbershop, you will unlock the tattoo salon. And after the tattoo salon, you will unlock the creative mode, which explains itself in the name.
Shave & Stuff is a simple, colorful, cartoonish-looking game with highly detailed physics and actions. Along with the access of free will by the player themselves, follow the request and try to make perfection.
Or go freestyling and make them fabulous your way.
Of course, any major or minor mistakes or issues from the customer's request will result in fewer stars. The closest to perfection will resolve in a top three full stars.
20 stars are required to unlock the tattoo salon and 40 for creative mode.
Inside the barbershop, you can find scissors, razors, trimmers, combs, hair growers, stencils, hair dye, and fancy glasses.
The tattoo salon got everything that the barbershop does, but instead of stencils, there is the tattoo equipment, aka the tattoo gun, and a washer. Along with an added feature, no longer only glasses; now earrings are a possibility too.
Visual & Audio
Visuals
Simple, colorful, cartoony, soft shapes. The visuals for the game are pretty simple, and most can be seen from the images of the Steam page or the game's logo.
It's colorful but soft for the eyes and not going for the detailed, realistic touch. Very good look in my opinion.
Audio
The audio is pretty much what you would expect: scissors, trimmers, razors, and hair dye spray cans. They all sound like what they’d normally sound like, and on top of it all, the background music which switches from the barbershop & the tattoo salon.
The barbershop got this jazz style of music that you can calmly or rhythmically work to, while the tattoo salon got this rock vibe to it, giving it just the right feel.

My final little thoughts
Shave & Stuff is loved by so many, and it is very understandable since it is highly enjoyable; you can spread your creativity freely and have a calm, happy environment.
There are no visible errors or bugs, the price is decent, the gameplay is enjoyable, there is nothing bad with this game, and it only brings good times.
I highly recommend trying out this game for any VR player.
This review was based on playing on the VALVE INDEX VR PC and was quite compatible with the headset.
