BarberSociety Live

THROWBACK THURSDAY 🔙🔥
Craft. Tradition. Precision. 🪒💈🇮🇹

Taking it back to a true celebration of shaving craftsmanship at BarberSociety Live 2026: the Scapicchio Accademia show and the prestigious Scapicchio Trophy.

With Italian barbering heritage, razor mastery and time-honoured techniques, Scapicchio Accademia brought traditional shaving craftsmanship to the stage during our 10th anniversary edition. 🔥

The Wet Shave Competition once again put focus, control and precision in the spotlight, with barbers stepping onto the stage to compete for the Scapicchio Trophy.

A special congratulations to Marcin Czaja, who took home the Scapicchio Trophy 2026. 🏆🪒

Massive respect to every contestant who took part and helped make this competition such a special part of BarberSociety Live.

A big thank you to Scapicchio Accademia Barbieri dal 1820 for bringing their expertise, passion and legacy back to our stage, and to Captain Fawcett for supporting this celebration of shaving craftsmanship. 🙌

Craft. Tradition. Excellence.

"I'M JUST GETTING STARTED."
🇳🇱 Schorem gaf tijdens BarberSociety Live 2026 eindelijk hun allereerste grote show op Nederlandse bodem.

Geen modellen. Geen Instagram-kapsels. Gewoon echte klanten, tijdloos vakmanschap en een boodschap die bleef hangen: knip niet voor likes, maar voor de persoon in je stoel.

In de zomereditie van BarberSociety Magazine lees je het uitgebreide verslag van de Schorem show én de nieuwe column van Robert a.k.a. Bertus, waarin hij vertelt waar zijn eindeloze motivatie vandaan komt en waarom hij na 36 jaar nog steeds voelt alsof hij pas net begonnen is.

💈 THE LIFE SAVING HAIRCUT
🇳🇱 Als barber zie je dingen die anderen niet zien. Juist tijdens een fade, scheerbehandeling of knipbeurt kun je een verdachte moedervlek of plek op de hoofdhuid of nek opmerken.

In de UK ontwikkelde Melanoma Focus daarom een gratis gids speciaal voor barbers. Geen medische opleiding nodig, wel kennis die mogelijk een leven kan redden.

Want soms is een simpele opmerking voldoende om iemand op tijd naar de huisarts te sturen.

👉 Download de gratis gids via

💈 As a barber, you see things others don't. During a fade, shave, or haircut, you may spot a suspicious mole or unusual mark on a client's scalp or neck.

That's why Melanoma Focus has created a free guide specifically for barbers. No medical training required, just knowledge that could potentially help save a life.

Sometimes, all it takes is a simple conversation to encourage someone to get checked.
