BARBER’S TOOLKIT

Have you ever wondered what tools are in the best barber’s toolkits? Well, we take a snoop inside the bags of some of the biggest names in the bizz. We talk tools, products, and trend predictions with Charlie Baker (WAHL Pro’s British Barber of the Year 2022), Hayden Cassidy (we all know her iconic work), American Crew All Star Education Teams’ Ian Harrold, and their Global Artistic Director Paul Wilson. Also, shoutout to Roxanne Batt and Sid Sottung, who tell us all about Artero clippers and Captain Fawcett styling products.

MARKETING

Marketing can seem intimidating, but you’re probably doing it already! Social media, Google, apps, and booking platforms like Booksy and Vagaro are your keys to getting your name out there.

One of our main features follows Steve Hilliard, who is owner of two salons, a published author, and business coach. He tells you how to keep your business robust – and keep those clients coming back for more.

Shelby Barriball also gives the lowdown on digital marketing with Vagaro, whilst Danny Robsinson shares his expert advice on strengthening your brand online to perfectly represent you and your business.

NEW YEAR, NEW TRENDS

We start with a New Year trend forecast from powerhouse session stylist, Josh Lamonaca. The Director of Menspire Salon and Menspire Academy, and educator of over 400k followers on Instagram, tells us what will be hot in 2023.

The brilliant Hayden Cassidy also gives her insight alongside Richie Finney, who is Founder of Captain Fawcett, showing how their top-class products will help you master every trend this year. 

Liam Oaks is our main feature, welcoming us behind the scenes to his studio, which he runs to help barbers create collections and get their work published. 

We can always rely on OSMO for the boldest, brightest styles. Brand Ambassador Brodie Raeside hits hard with men’s colour trends for 2023. An unmissable read that will put you miles ahead of the rest.

And finally, no one does motivation quite like our favourite columnist and Global Artistic Director of WAHL Pro, Simon Shaw. Read his pep talk and you’ll be chomping at the bit to launch your best year yet.

SHAVING

Johnny Baba, award-winning barber and close-shave specialist, gets us started with a look at health and safety for shaving – being clean in your work is just as important as providing the cleanest shaves.

Get precision every time with MÜHLE UK. Veronica Berman, Sales & Marketing Director, and their Head Barber Oran Lasocki give essential advice on shaving – the best practices and what to prepare for in 2023.

Kevin Vorley also gives us the lowdown on Morgans products and why they should be your go-to products for top-class shaves all year round – from skincare to tool care and everything in between.

We hope you enjoy this issue! You can order your print copy here.

If you are a barber pro and own a business, you may have staff of varying experience levels, with different speed of services and pricing. Although this is the industry norm, it can be tough for business owners to keep up-to-date on service lists and price menus that reflect so many variations. To make things easier and more efficient, Booksy, the leader in booking and business technology for our industry, launched their newest updated feature – Service Variants! 

Booksy Service Variants makes it simpler than ever to list and promote different services, descriptions, prices, and durations of services. Best of all, business owners will be able to assign variations to specific staff members.  

Why are Service Variants important? Well, the business owner of a nail salon might employ an entry level nail tech and an experienced nail manicurist. Those two staffers might perform a mani-pedi at different speeds and charge different prices. If that business owner uses Service Variants, clients won’t have to spend additional time trying to figure out which mani-pedi on the service menu they should book.  

Service Variants also help providers run their business more efficiently with customized team settings. Business owners now have more flexibility when assigning service duration and price to individual team members, helping to eliminate stressful workarounds of staff who work at different levels. 

This updated feature also allows for a more accurately booked team calendar. Before Service Variants, staff who worked faster than others may be limited to the number of appointments or standing around in between bookings due to a default booking duration. Now, business owners can embrace each team member’s own pace by adjusting service duration for individual staff members to make sure the teams’ calendar is accurately booked.      

Taking advantage of Service Variants means that clients have all the information they need to book by the experience level and pricing model they want. The amount of service time is crystal clear. Staff members availability becomes easier than ever to manage. This updated feature also eliminates common client misunderstandings which enhances satisfaction and keeps your salon, spa, barber shop running smoothly. 

Start creating Service Variants with just a few simple steps: 

1. Head to “Business Settings” in the Booksy Biz app and select “Services Setup”
2. Click on “Services & Combos Services”
3. Select an existing service to edit, or “Add a Service”
4. Under “Duration/Pricing”, in the “General” heading, click + “Add Service Variant”.
5. Add a description to each one of the “Service Variants” 

In the beauty business, there’s no one size fits all model. Booksy Service Variants helps businesses of all sizes embrace the pace and level of experience of each staffer and helps customers find the best service for them.

Hosted by President Robert Eaton and Chancellor Karoliina Saunders,  Robert Eaton said: “It was an honour to become your President and from the moment I came on board there’s been a seismic shift in the industry. But, whatever you decide to do with your career, the Fellowship will be there to support you.

Booksy, the leader in booking and business technology for the beauty industry, is delighted to announce their newest Brand Ambassador, Jorge Fades – better known as @jorge_fades to his 859k TikTok followers! 

Jorge didn’t start cutting hair in a fancy barbershop. Rather, he began cutting hair wherever he could plug his barbering tools into. After plenty of experience with “backyard haircuts on a plastic chair”, Jorge decided to pursue barbering as a career and became a full-time barber in 2017. Soon after, thanks to his talent and creativity, his clientele started to grow at a rapid pace.

With business booming, it became more challenging for Jorge to stay organized. When he joined Booksy in 2018, he soon realized his business become more and more organized each day. Jorge has never stopped investing in his career or his education and, in 2021, his hard work paid off when he was able to own his own salon, “Visions” in Natchitoches, Louisiana.    

As Jorge’s business grew, so did his social media following. His clever and educational TikTok videos are constantly going viral, helping him grow a substantial following, and allowing him to also pursue a successful education career.    

Since becoming a Booksy Ambassador, Jorge has gotten the opportunity to cut hair backstage at two music festivals, Furnace Fest and Is For Lover Fest 2022, as part of the Get Discovered Backstage contest by Booksy and Idle Hand Collective.  

“I love Booksy because I feel really good knowing that even though I may not technically be working at night or on a day off, I’m still actually working. Since Booksy sets all the online booking for me, I can still get clients without them having to call or text me, so I can enjoy my free time,” commented Jorge.

Wahl Professional’s one-of-a-kind program provides at-risk youth holistic support, including barber college scholarships, local barber mentors, dedicated tutoring to pass their state licensing exams, transportation stipends, and connections to social services.

Recently, Wahl Professional gathered their local partners in Cleveland, OH, to pair the latest Fade It Forward® Scholarship winners with their professional barber mentors.

Cleveland barbers Jermaine Smith, James Stone, Jesus Corporan, Alan Seats, Kelly Rice, Jr. and Tara Crookston have graciously agreed to mentor Fade It Forward® students. 

Wahl’s Fade It Forward® program, the most robust philanthropic program in the barber industry, aims to remove the financial burdens from barber students who would otherwise be unable to accomplish their goals of becoming professional barbers. Launched in 2018, Fade It Forward has awarded more than $350,000 in scholarships to nearly 30 young adults from 4 cities (Chicago, St. Louis, Cleveland, and San Diego).

Beyond offering at-risk youth scholarships to a local barber school, the Fade It Forward® program also offers personalized tutoring to help them pass their state licensing exams, connection to social services for those in need, transportation stipends to get to school, and a one-on-one mentorship program with a local professional barber. Over the 40-hour mentorship program, students learn how to build a book of business, assist in day-to-day operations, and maintain professional relationships with coworkers. Though they are not licensed to cut hair, they learn the business of being a barber by doing a bit of everything around a shop to keep it running smoothly. This includes washing and folding towels, sweeping floors, observing their mentor’s barbering skills, and learning what it takes to build a clientele.

Once they have graduated from barber school, Fade It Forward® scholarship recipients receive tutoring from a Wahl Professional educator to help them prepare for their state licensing exam. These exams are theory-based, complex, and are often stressful for barber school students. The Wahl Professional tutor, provided at no charge, is able to focus their studying efforts and help ensure their success on the exams, their last milestone before beginning their professional barbering career.

“The barber community is fairly small, so building a network is important. We are giving our Fade It Forward® students that entree,” says Julie Gustafson, Senior Manager, Marketing at Wahl Professional. She adds, “They will learn cutting skills in school, and will keep learning when they’re licensed, but the mentorship program is about showing them what it means to be a barber in the community, how to conduct themselves professionally, and how to build their business.”

Garland “G Whiz” Fox, Wahl Professional Educator and co-founder of the Fade It Forward® program, believes that Fade It Forward® teaches students what makes barbering a special profession: “Barbering is about community. Barbering is about taking care of everyone around you, not just in your household, but each individual person that comes through your life. You have to pay it forward. In this case, FADE it forward.”

“This is going to create the pathway for them to be successful, to impact their families, and impact their communities that they are going to be working in,” added Kelly Rice, Owner of Keratin Barber College in Cleveland, OH, who is proud to be a part of the Fade It Forward® program.

The Cleveland Fade It Forward® students are expected to complete their mentorship and graduate from barber college within the next two months.

Last month several NHBF Members attended the Small Business Reception held by HM King Charles III at Buckingham Palace. Earlier this year the Palace had asked the NHBF to nominate those Members who have had an impact on the industry from which these invitees were selected. 

NHBF Vice President Mandy Lodge-Stewart and Board Member, Fiona Johnston were joined by industry legend, Andrew Collinge, alongside salon owners Mikaela Martin (Ginger Rabbit, London); Brooke Evans (BE Ironbridge, Shropshire), Debbie Digby (Passion4Hair), Julie Hensman (Hensmans), Lesley McCormack (Pamper & Polish/Michaeljohn Training), Gary Machin (The Rogers Barbers) and Erica Liburd (The Muse Salon) at the reception which celebrated the efforts of small businesses and their contributions to their local communities and the British economy after a stressful and unpredictable couple of years. 

NHBF Vice President Mandy Lodge-Stewart said, “It was an honour to meet King Charles and to gather with small business owners from across the UK. Everyone here has been championing their industries and local communities, which we’ve all been striving for during and following the pandemic. It was great to meet with other likeminded individuals and discuss our plans for 2023 and how we can keep collaborating to continue to grow.” 

NHBF chief executive Richard Lambert commented, “Despite all the challenges hair & beauty has faced over the last few year, and of what is ahead, many salons are showing incredible resilience.  We were delighted to see the sector’s contribution recognised by His Majesty.”

New and renewed grants help meet real needs, secure youth success, and strengthen families in Racine, WI and beyond.

The Andis Foundation is proud to announce it has awarded $1.5 million since its founding in 2015. With its guiding principle of building strong communities on the foundation of family, small grants recipients have all shared a common goal of creating lasting impact. Until recently, all have been in or directly benefited Racine, WI where four generations of Andis Company leaders have called home..

“For 100 years, Andis has thrived in Southeastern Wisconsin, which is why we are honored to be able to give back to the communities that have given us so much whether here in Racine, WI or beyond in Fort Myers, Fl, where we have helped with hurricane relief, or in Kansas City, MO where we’re supporting Pawsperity — a nonprofit that transforms lives through pet grooming,” said Laura Andis Bishop, President of Andis Foundation. “We would not have made it to our centennial year without the support of people across the country and it is so meaningful for all of us at the Andis Foundation to work toward keeping families and communities connected.”

New and renewed Andis Foundation grants recipients are detailed below:

New Grants

• TwinCutZ Barbership in Fort Myers, FL — funding free haircuts for first responders, healthcare workers, linemen and anyone negatively impacted by Hurricane Ian.
• Cops ‘N Kids Reading Center — engages children in the wonder of reading as the foundation for community connection and a life of success.
• The Parent Life program of Southeastern Wisconsin Youth for Christ — helping young parents achieve their dreams while building strong families. 
• United Way’s LIFT (Link and Inspire For Tomorrow) program in Racine’s community schools — provides opportunities for youth and families to connect more deeply in creative ways that bolster kids’ success.

Renewed Grants

• The Racine Art Museum Association’s Giving Tuesday Match Campaign — a unique resource providing our community with quality art experiences to discover the power of creativity.
• Wisconsin 4-H Foundation’s livestock judging activities and competitions for youth aged 5-19— designed to learn critical animal care skills, develop key character and life skills, and foster engagement in the community as well as the industry. 
• Racine, WI’s Hometown’s Hospitality Center — providing salon services to youth and families who would otherwise find it unaffordable.
• J. I. Case High School FIRST Robotics competitions — provides an excellent opportunity for all students interested in developing creative and innovation skills.
• The expansion of NAMI Racine County’s Ending the Silence peer education presentations and NAMI Teen Talk program — with demonstrated effectiveness in reducing stigma around mental illness and related topics. 
• Pawsperity, formerly The Grooming Project, in Kansas City, MO — helping single parents break the cycle of poverty and achieve financial stability through the art of pet grooming.

To help support its charitable giving, Andis Company is also excited to announce the launch of a new Andis Foundation website, in alignment with the company’s new branding.  This new site makes it easier than ever to identify and apply for grants, understand current programs, and see the foundation’s impact since its founding in 2015.

Make the most of the festive period with 5 Tips to increase your revenue!

Find out how Booksy can support your business during this time, and try out a free trial.

1. Get Yourself on the Market: During this holiday season, we can anticipate that many people will be traveling fair distances to reconnect with loved ones. But where can out-of-towners find a reliable place to get a quick cut before a family gathering? Booksy Marketplace.  Creating an online profile for your barbershop on the Booksy marketplace can help you get discovered by new clients every day. By building your profile, with great images, client reviews, and a comprehensive list of your services and prices, it has never been easier for potential clients to find you, and book in!  

2. Modify Your Menu: As time draws closer and closer to the holidays, many barbershops feel a rush of clients, just wanting a quick clean-up. During these busy few days, you might want to modify your menu list, to include shorter, faster turn-over services – to get as many of your clients in and out of the door, in time for the festivities. Booksy makes this easy-as-can-be, as you can simply create a bookable list of services you offer for the holidays.   

3. Blast Your Memos: While we all love a hand-written season’s greetings card, it might not be the most efficient way to share your news with your client base. With Booksy you can instantly get any news, promotions, changes, or reminders to your entire database, via SMS and email.  

4. Don’t Forget: This time of year, with so much going on, it would be easy to forget your head if it wasn’t screwed on right! With Booksy, you can send your clients automated reminders before each appointment, to avoid the dreaded late arrivals and no-shows.  

5. Give the Gift of Easy Shopping: What’s a better gift than time? With Booksy, clients (and your client’s loved ones) can easily purchase gift cards for time and services at your barbershop, making holiday shopping quick and painless, and putting some cash in your register, and appointments in your schedule for the slower January days.

As a barber, getting paid should be the easy part of your job. Booksy, the leader in booking and business technology for the beauty industry, has made the payment process extremely easy and even more convenient with their Booksy Card Reader. 

The Booksy Card Reader is new solution, powered by Stripe, a trusted leader in the payment processing space, that further enables beauty providers to process credit card, tap-to-pay, and mobile wallet payments – quickly, safely, and easily. This feature helps beauty pros spend less time chasing payments and more time doing what they love. 

Tameika Swint is the Executive Director and Founder of Styles 4 Kidz and is an avid user of Booksy Card Reader. This payment solution, that’s fully integrated with the Booksy app, has helped her business in more ways than one. Thanks to this feature, her salon’s checkout process is 5x faster! The tap-to-pay option is a huge benefit in a busy salon environment as it speeds up the process even more.

“One of the biggest downsides of a slow checkout experience is that you or your business look unprofessional. Before Booksy, we were spending an average five minutes at checkout. Now we’re spending a minute or less,” shared Tameika.   

This simple, more convenient way to pay helps Tameika and her staff spend more time building relationships, being creative and ultimately delivering the best experience possible to their clients. Styles 4 Kidz is a non-profit organization, so income reporting is also extremely important for their salon. With everything bundled in the app, Booksy Stats & Reportsenables users to pull reports easily, saving time and energy. A business owner can access their data and analytics at the touch of a finger.  

On average, Booksy Card Reader users see a 10% increase in tips and an 18% increase in average booking value. With Booksy Card Reader, beauty professionals get free next business day payouts or they can use Fast Payouts to get money within 30 minutes for a flat 1% fee. 

In a few easy steps, any beauty professional can start getting paid faster: 

1. In the Booksy app, head to “Business Settings” and click on “Customer Payments” 
2. Select “Payment Types” and choose “Booksy Card Reader”
3. Select “Verify”. After you complete the verification process, you can order your Booksy Card Reader
4. Once you receive your Booksy Card Reader in the mail, connect it to your Booksy app and start processing payments

The new independent suspension cutter bars and easily removable micro-thin gold foils provide an ultra-smooth, ultra-close finish without bumps or irritation. 

Wahl Professional listened to the requests of barbers and stylists around the world and designed the new 5 Star Vanish® finishing tool to give them what they wanted: foils that remove easily without tearing or denting, the closest shave possible, and a fuel gauge to display battery life.

The NEW Wahl Professional 5 Star Vanish® shaver provides an ultra-close finish without irritation thanks to a revolutionary new independent suspension cutting system and micro-thin gold foils that hug the face, head, and neck for the smoothest shave out there. Designed with a power level light with smart LED fuel gauge display, 100+ minutes run time and a travel power-saver mode, you’ll always be ready to go. Wahl Professional knows that barbers who work all day need a tool that feels good in their hand. The ergonomic design with comfort grips provides a well-balanced, comfortable, and secure hold at any angle. A quick release button makes removing the entire shaver head fast and easy. And the micro-thin gold foils easily remove individually – without tearing or denting – for cleaning, rotating or replacement. 

“The 5 Star Vanish® Shaver does more than just shave. You can blend bald fades, eliminate stray hairs on finished hairstyles and clean up neck and facial hair,” says Wahl Professional Educator, Nieves Almaraz (@howtofadehair), “I can save money by extending the life of my gold foils by easily popping them out and rotating them and by replacing just one gold foil, instead of the entire shaver head.”

Barbers and stylists can purchase The Wahl Professional 5 Star Vanish® Shaver for $129 at wahlpro.com or by visiting their local distributor.
