One popular haircut for men these days is the layer cut. Here, hair is cut in uniform layers with shears all over the head. This is a very versatile cut and can be worn either short or long.

Unlike many hair stylists, who perform a number of different tasks, barbers and barbershops are more budget friendly. In addition, you can select from a distinctive set of services, much like choosing from an a la carte menu.

It’s important to remember that cutting your own hair is a skill few people are ever able to obtain. If you want your hair to accent your face rather than detracting from it, put down the scissors and leave the trimming to the pros.

Some typical barbershop services include: a cut for longer hair, a buzz cut, a shave and a beard trim, which is when a barber will use clippers or shears to trim or shape facial hair.

A crew cut is a generic term for a short cut that's tapered on the sides and back, as well as the top to give the front hairline a little more length.

Do you know why barbers were called "barber-surgeons" throughout the Middle Ages? That's right, from around the tenth century, barbers performed surgeries as well as cut hair.

Did you know that in the old days, barbers who doubled as surgeons would hang their post-surgery rags out in the wind to dry, and the rags would wrap around the posts, creating the red and white swirl that denotes a barbers shop today?

If you sometimes walk in and see a queue to a particular barber, you know he is a true master. All of our barbers are masters, so you won’t ever have to stay in line.

Hair color and thickness differ greatly; the average person has roughly 100,000 strands of hair on their head at any given time. This differs broadly by natural colors. Red hair: 90,000 and blond hair: 140,000 to name a few.

The hair of your beard needs as much attention as the hair on your head, and barbers are skilled in trimming, thinning, and shaping it according to your preferences. If you wear a beard, but like keeping it under control, a barber will provide a more balanced and clean look than home trimming will.

If you have never had a shave by a barber, you are missing out on one of the great treats in life. Leaning back, hot towels, the clean swipe of the straight razor, a brisk aftershave splash, and a dusting of talc and you are braced to take on the world.

Dandruff can be caused by a fungus called malassezia, which can sometimes grow out of control and feed on the natural oils on your scalp. There are a wide range of products that can help control this issue.
