Nah

You should cut about 2 heads an hour. They’ll bring in over 90k at that rate after taking vacation and holidays.

Assuming their clientele is full (if they only charge 25 and they’re actually decent they’ll have a waitlist)

Yeah you're working like a slave to get that though. 9 hour days on your feet with a 30 minute lunch. You're talking 17 customers/day back to back with no buffer in between, no interruptions, no customer call offs. That's basically an assembly line.

Would I do it? Sure, it's better than what a lot of folks doing.

30 minutes sounds mighty quick too, but I won't speak on that since I"m not a barber.

The average appointment time is 30 minutes

Some barbers do 45 minute appointments, but I’ve never seen them not charge at least $50

$25 is crazy low. It ain’t many barbers cutting for that

andis masters,andis t outliners






Don’t get the cordless :whoa: they wakk


And oster guards or the red guards you get at the beauty supply(1 dollar)

Edit: links aren’t showing up for me but go on Amazon and search what I posted

How much is the Andis masters you lanked? :jbhmm:

Amazon got a pair for $90 and another for $192. Walmart got a pot for $105. The most expensive is the 12660. :dwillhuh:

And how bout the T outliners? Amazon got it for $60, is that what you lanked? :jbhmm:

What you think bout those electric razors barbers be using? I found they let me keep my line/shape up a lil longer if I use it around my whole hairline daily or every other day starting a few days after I get my hair cut :ehh:

Masters should be like 110-130 depending where you go

T outliners should be 55-65

If you paying anything more you’re getting played

Today they got youtube videos that show you how to fade/taper/line etc

I had to learn by trial & error and watching dudes cut hair

What do you mean barbers don't pay taxes?:wtf:

See THIS is what I'm talking bout. Ain't no way I could be a barber.:russ:
if they get cash, they are not declaring all of that, so no tax on the undeclared cash.

my barber takes cash only, he literally has a sign up near the till saying "cash only" and guaranteed he aint declaring all of the cash hes getting
