January 12, 2022
We all love that feeling that we get when the barber has finished cutting and then proceeds to blow dry our hair, style the look with those fine products and then finish with a puff of cologne. It’s an experience to savour and many of us struggle to recreate that same barbershop styled look at home. That is why today we take a look at the necessary steps to do just that.
The Tools Of the Trade
Firstly it takes the right tools. While we don’t recommend trying to cut your own hair in the mirror, you will need the same styling tools that the barber uses to recreate that same look at home. A blow dryer, wide toothed comb and quiff rollers are some common instruments for modern both modern and contemporary hairstyling. Ask the barber if they have the tools they’re using in stock and purchase direct for the highest quality equipment.
The Finest Barbershop Only Brands
Next on the list are the superior quality grooming products that are used here at Barber Industries Parramatta. The stuff you see on the supermarket shelf aint’ gonna cut it here. Talk to your barber about the products that they are using to create your specific stye. These are the same prestige products that are available to purchase on the retail shelves and you will need to purchase the correct ones that are needed for recreating your chosen hairstyle.
The Right Techniques
Lastly we look at the manner in which the right tools and the right products are used. Again we suggest that you watch your barber as they apply their craft and ask any questions that you have about the techniques that they are using. With this knowledge everything comes together and you should be well on your way to recreating that barbershop styled look at home.
