About Me
Craig Whitely, professionally known as Craig the Barber®, is a respected leader in men’s grooming, blending over 15 years of barbering mastery with a vision for creating innovative, high-performance grooming tools and products.
His career began behind the chair, where his commitment to education and barbershop tradition inspired him to launch TheMensRoom.com (2009–2017), one of the earliest and most trusted blogs delivering grooming insights from a barber’s perspective.
Driven by real conversations with clients and thousands of readers, Craig launched Burke Avenue® in 2017 — a men’s skincare and shaving line rooted in quality, comfort, and craftsmanship. His signature Moisturizing Shave Cream went on to be named Best Shave Cream by Men’s Health Magazine, solidifying the brand’s reputation for excellence.
