BarberShop Tips : What Clients Should Know

Clients can benefit from knowing how to better communicate and work with their barber. Here are some do’s and don’ts to help you.
The “DO’S”
Tip your barber because it shows that you appreciate his hard work.
  • Try and hold very still because it is difficult to cut moving skin.
  • Always inform the barber how you want your hair cut.
  • Ask the price of the haircut if you are not sure.
  • Respect the barber’s time as if it were your own.
  • Call if you are running late in case your barber has another client on the way.
  • Relax while waiting and know that your barber is going as fast as he can.
The “DONT’S”
  • Never assume the barber knows what haircut you want; he can forget.
  • Do not insult a barber; we are some of the easiest people to speak to.
  • Do not “float.” If you go from barber to barber, some barbers may feel you lack loyalty and do not know what you want.
  • Do not put anything in your hair before coming to get a hair cut. Oils, sprays, gel and other items can clog up a barber’s tools.
  • If your hair isn’t the way you want it, please don’t yell at the barber. He tried his best to give you what you want.
  • Instead, work with your barber to come up with a solution you can both be happy with.
