HOW TO GET THE BEST RESULTS FROM YOUR BARBERSHOP VISIT

February 23, 2023

The barbershop is more than just a place of business; it’s a place of rejuvenation, creativity and wellbeing. For men to get the best results and enjoy the whole experience, it is important to behave in an appropriate manner during their visit. Being courteous and polite is a must while trusting in your barber's expertise will ensure the best possible results.

First and foremost we must talk about respect, respect for the system, respect for the staff and respect for the other customers too.

Remember Your Manners

As barbershops are often busy, it's important for everyone to be patient, kind and courteous. Nobody likes the guy who needs to jump the queue and kill the vibe and nobody wants to go through the hassle of pre-booking for a haircut either. The freedom and flexibility to roll up and get a haircut any time relies on everyone having a little integrity. If you become unsure if you’re next, simply ask before jumping in the chair.

The Unwritten Rules

Next we come to the unwritten rule of keeping conversations lighthearted and clear of sensitive topics and language that may offend. Most of us enjoy a good chin wag and appropriate conversation is always welcomed at the barbershop. Keeping the chatter above the belt will ensure that your barber stays comfortable and can deliver their best work.


Plan Ahead

To continue on the path towards optimal results, it is beneficial to come prepared for your visit to the barbershop. Arriving with clean hair that is easy to work with is a good idea and bringing along a picture of the style you are going for will help you to be specific in your requests.
