Barber Career

[Uncle Wally One Ball]

I think the abundance of Kurdish and Iraqi (not Turkish btw) barber shops in every town and city must have cornered the market by now

If you become a Turkish Barber, you don’t even need to know how to cut hair these days.

Just stick a pair of skewers up the client’s nose.

No point asking on here, bunch of bald old cunts

I’ll have you know that, despite my advanced age, I have a full head of flowing silver locks. I do not deny being old or a ****.

At 18, rather than Uni my youngest lad enrolled at London School of Barbering on Fountain St and did a 3 month intensive course there, leading to a career at a proper barbers (£30 ish) Currently at Helvete in Chinatown.

Loves it, trade relatively steady and works with 3 similarly minded mates, lives in Piccadilly and gets to use my season ticket when I can't make it as he only takes bookings.

Got to be a wind up!

Looked it up, it's not.

I think the Barber Barber hairdressers on Deansgate do classes above their shop - may be worth looking into

Hi all,

Looking to change careers into barbering after putting it off for years... any advice on where to train or whether its easy self teaching myself etc?

Or even if its viable.

have you any finance?

if you have you don't need to learn how to cut hair.

set up your own shop.
hire 2 ladies who can cut hair and are willing to do the job topless.

guaranteed to make a million.

you're welcome.

I go once every three weeks. You don’t need scales when you go barbers, you just look at the disgrace in the mirror and that’s that.

It's a great little place, friendly lads (no Rags) not talking inanities and 3 top pubs outside on Portland Street after your cut.

No idea where you live so probably not really viable but I know Hopwood Hall up in Rochdale does a part-time barbering course in an evening that might be worth looking at. Obviously if you're nowhere near there then no good but might be looking at whatever vocational college is near you, see if they do anything like that.
