Barber Tips

  • The barber shop is a great place to talk with other men. The 1880′s – 1940′s were the golden age for barbershops. Men socialized in all male hangouts, and barbershops rivaled saloons in popularity.
  • When you walk out of the barber shop with a sharp haircut, you can’t help but feel a bit of manly swagger creep into your step. So next time you spot that familiar red and white striped pole, stop in.
  • Try a old fashioned side part. Fit for a movie star, the classic 1930s side swept hairstyle oozes charm and sophistication. It simply involves brushing or combing hair to one side and creating a simple part. It’s the definition of unfussy elegance and low maintenance.
  • When the barber pushes your head down to get to a certain spot, let it happen, resistance is futile.
  • For the best possible cut and style, tell your barber exactly what you want. Go on, don’t be shy!
