Your Black Barber Shops questions, answered

Answers to commonly asked questions from the experts on Fash.

How much is a haircut at a Black barbershop?

The cost of a haircut at a Black barbershop is $15 to $25. Prices can vary depending on the location, the barber's experience, and the length and style of your hair. In general, haircuts at Black barbershops are cheaper than haircuts at a traditional hair salon.

In addition to the cost of the haircut, it is customary to tip the barber 15% to 20% of the haircut price. You can also round up your bill to the nearest five dollars to cover the cost of the gratuity. Most barbers recommend you tip in cash so that the barber has the money in hand rather than trying to recoup their tips from the credit card receipts.

What is a Black barbershop?

Historically, Black barbershops in the United States were a place where Black men would gather, socialize, and build community. The shops gained popularity post-emancipation when Black barbers were finally free to serve whomever they wanted. This opened up their services to the Black men previously excluded from receiving the expert services of a Black barber. Black barbershops became a safe haven where Black activists could gather and share political strategies for change.

Today, Black barbershops are still important community hubs for members of the Black community to connect and share their culture. Going to the barbershop is an all-day event, with clients spending hours socializing about sports, politics, and race. They also are often the places where new hairstyle trends are born. Black barbershops can be busy, but rather than being exclusively for walk-ins, many shops now take appointments for their services.

Can anyone go to a Black barbershop?

Yes, anyone can go to a Black barbershop to get their hair cut, trimmed, or styled. Black barbers specialize in cutting Black men's hair, but in a racially diverse neighborhood, they will cut anyone's hair regardless of their ethnicity.

A newer generation of Black women who choose to wear their hair naturally also benefit from the skilled barbers in a Black barbershop. Many Black women prefer a barbershop over a hair salon because the barbers are trained to cut short hairstyles and the prices are cheaper than in a hair salon.

What services does a Black barbershop offer?

While Black barbershops are known for their haircuts, beard trims, and shaving services, they also offer a variety of other services, including:

  • Facials
  • Straightens and relaxers
  • Coloring
  • Waxing
  • Manicures and pedicures
  • Eyebrow threading and shaping
  • Massage

What cuts are popular at a Black barbershop?

Some of the most popular cuts at a barbershop include:

  • The Caesar cut is a short, high-maintenance cut that requires regular trims.
  • The fade gradually blends from short hair on the sides and back to longer hair on the top.
  • The lineup is a simple cut that involves trimming the hair around the hairline
  • The afro is a natural hairstyle created by letting the hair grow out in a natural state.
  • Cornrows are a traditional African hairstyle created by braiding the hair into rows.

What should I ask for at a Black barbershop?

When you go to a Black barbershop, it's important to be prepared and know what you want. Here are a few things you should ask:

  • How much do your haircuts and other services cost?
  • What type of haircut do you recommend?
  • How often do I need a haircut to keep this style?
  • What products do you recommend for styling my hair?
  • Do you have pictures of popular cuts you offer? 

How do I choose a Black barbershop?

Most clients choose a Black barbershop in their neighborhood since the shop is a social gathering place for the community. Other tips on choosing a Black barbershop include:

  • Ask around and get recommendations from friends, family, or co-workers.
  • Look for online reviews to see what other people have to say about the Barbershop in your area.
  • Visit the shop in person to see if you like the atmosphere and if they have skilled barbers.
  • Find a shop with hours that fit your schedule and that offers the services you are looking for.
  • Consider the amenities they offer like free Wi-Fi or coffee.
