This has seriously inspired me to become a barber. I'm in an Early College High School and i've always dreamed of becoming a computer technician but until I saw a video by Daniel Alfonso (Hanz de Fuko hairstylist) barbering really took me by surprise. Daniel is really a huge inspiration for me and will continue to be. I have one more year left of school and I really feel that barbering will be my path.
I saw this video about 10 years ago when I was 14. This gave me the Barber's itch and I've been working in a shop after Barber school for about a month now and taking my state board exam soon. This video really started it all for me and gave me the idea to follow this path. Thank you
My mom's grandfathers were both barbers in Buffalo, NY. They met as business partners and moved to LA together to start a barber shop in downtown in the 1930s. One of their sons married the other's daughter and the rest is history. They ran a barber shop in the basement of the Security Pacific Bank building in downtown LA for 25 years or so. This video brought back lots of memories of them.
I am so happy that I came across this channel. I have so much respect for both the artful craftsman you portray in your videos and for you and your masterful way of sharing these stories. Thanks!
AWESOME!!! I have been in the biz for 15 years. The traditional barbershop is making a come back. Men are deciding to be men and go to a place that actually says " Barbershop" The video is very inspiring! Thanks for sharing !!
in my fourth month of barber school this gave me some encouragement ive been stressing over money, but this reminded me why i started school in the first place thanks for the video
I love this video and I love the mentality behind these guys entire set up I work in a boring old man barbershop in nj and I'm trying to bring a younger feel and a more modern approach to an old feeling establishment. People ask me all the time why would I want to become a barber and I tell them well who is gonna cut your hair when gippetto the Guido barber finally kicks the bucket?!?! I'm glad these guys are doing something I can relate to and if I was on the west coast I'd be working for these guys for sure.
I will follow in these footsteps. I will get my license after the military and eventually open up my own shop. I will have my own RUclips channel. Watch out for me in Atlanta Georgia!
Bingo, the man nailed it ... 'Make less money and be happy' - that's me through and through. Apparently the job satisfaction of Barbers as a profession is very high - it's a social activity and you get to see the product of your labour walk out the door with a smile on their faces.
A great way to spend the weekend, or after a hectic day at work, is a nice professional shave and simple facial massage at a vintage and characterful barber shop. When I'm back in the States for a short while, I'll always visit The Modern Man barber shop in Portland. Lovely old school charm, with an adjoining PUB where you'll enjoy your fav whisky or other drinks, have a cigar while waiting, or after your shave and hair cut. BLISS!.
Great video lads.Best barbershops i ever seen.I am proud to be a barber .Its really kind of culture.Its great motivation for me open another biger shop.thanks
Servus Marc, Die Frise nennt sich Pompadour (sehr kurz gehalten). Die ist oldschool/rockabilly. Ich hab auch die Frisur, nur etwas länger.Vorbehaltlos zu empfehlen,sieht genial aus und ist schnell in Form gebracht. Und wir Jungs können mit unserer Pomade hantieren ;-) ! Gruß Björn
Das hatten die bei mir im Barbershop damals auch gemacht, der hat abe reinfach nur gefragt ob er den Scheitel ausrasieren soll. Weiß nicht ob es da nen speziellen Namen für gibt
Great video !!! Just giving a shout out to my local barbershop here in Fresno Ca and these two guys are great and the shop is a sports shop from football to boxing and it's just a great place to hangout and get a cut !!! Leonels barbershop !!!
Although I prefer to have my hair cut textured and messy, I can't express enough how cool this is that the barber shop is making a come back, that there are business owners who are willing to go the extra mile to make something like a hair cut an experience not just a chore.
i typically go to a barber for my cuts. This last time I got my hair cut at a salon, because I was there waiting for someone. The way it came out, I was horrified. I told her to finish up her cut and paid (yes, I paid, she's only doing her job). I went home and was very close to shaving it all off; instead i went to work the next day with my head down. Immediately following I went right back to my barber and he was able to salvage it. TL;DR: Thank goodness for good barbers who makes cutting hair their art-form.
ive been shaving my head for 10+ years and im ready for something new, the closest barber to me is 2 hours away should i travel that far to get the first cut of something new just to try the new haircut or just go to a salon to have it done?
***** curly thick hair im to the point to where it stops growing normally and starts to fro out and i need the cut bad, also i have a wedding that im in coming up. what would be worth it to do at this point?
20 years ago I was a barber, my dad and I had our own shop. I loved the profession, but my Dad died young at 52 and after that I lost my passion. It is a wonderful craft, but you must have passion for it. I do miss it. The only down side is you have to learn to manage your cash well when you have a slow month. I am very security mined and like the fact that I have a stead check (working in an office). Barbering can be feat for famine. But it's a great lifestyle and very addicting.

@andomaxcha Thanks. It's a good feelin when you hand your client the mirror and they are like real nice work. To know they appreciated your effort is the best feelin to me, n no job I ever had has ever gave that to me.
Hit up this Barber shop I heard was pretty good..owner wasn't there and some chick was cutting for the day..Best haircut I've received so far. Just thought I'd share that.
ive always had thoughts about becoming/learning the barber trade for the very same reasons that were displayed in this vid. ive always viewed it like that a sub almost counter culture and definitely a "mancave" feel IMO. I think this is the level/plane of skill I want to achieve . . . nice
I own a little two-chair joint in Tennessee and we hear daily how glad our customers are to find an authentic barber shop. We don't do appointments and hour-long waits are not uncommon. Gone are the days when men were forced into cookie-cutter unisex salons or franchise haircutteries. Men are looking for something real -- not gimmicky or theme-y -- and they are looking for barbers who understand how men think and how they wear and groom their hair. Long live the barber shop!
Hey dude, Im a Graphic designer so I love seeing comments about fonts. I found one close to the font you're talking about called roper but it's not free. Here is the link www.myfonts.com/fonts/virtuecreative/roper/ Otherwise the font might be custom but easy to recreate if you know how to use Illustrator. Hope that helps! Font on!
my barber was a navy barber for 40 years. the only cuts ive ever seen him him do is flattops and high and tights. but that dude can tightest fade you ever had UP THE IRONS FROM LOUISIANA
i used to feel like that too. I just started hanging around barbershops and learning everytime I got cut. Then I started to practice on myself, and little by little on my friends and now my neighbors and friends all hit me up for cuts. And don't worry about looking like an idiot, school is for learning and nobody is good at something the first time they try it but they get better with practice. if you really like it then just go for it bro.
it reminds me when i used to accompany my dad to an old school kind of barber here in Jakarta. of course the interior is not as awesome as this one, but it was really so old school and so for men only 😊

We do consider ourselves as artists. We dont just offer a service. Thanks for the inspiration you guys!

AWESOME!!! I have been in the biz for 15 years. The traditional barbershop is making a come back. Men are deciding to be men and go to a place that actually says " Barbershop" The video is very inspiring! Thanks for sharing !!
I love these old school barbershops. I find them very relaxing
Straight up inspiring. I'm in my first year of college, and I'm just not feeling it. I'm glad these guys found their passion.
in my fourth month of barber school this gave me some encouragement ive been stressing over money, but this reminded me why i started school in the first place thanks for the video
I think it's great that barber shops are coming back. Good to see all the young people working it.
Definitely the barbershops I have to visit in future. Thank you for all these awesome videos, I live for them.
I love this video and I love the mentality behind these guys entire set up I work in a boring old man barbershop in nj and I'm trying to bring a younger feel and a more modern approach to an old feeling establishment. People ask me all the time why would I want to become a barber and I tell them well who is gonna cut your hair when gippetto the Guido barber finally kicks the bucket?!?! I'm glad these guys are doing something I can relate to and if I was on the west coast I'd be working for these guys for sure.
Barbershop and gym are one of the best parts of my month
props to Director Ryan Ovadia and DP Garrett Shannon - such beautiful footage
These barbers have mad skills and love their craft. Also hats off to the director; great photography
Bravo from Bali.... we always come back to this video to keep us on course. Very inspiring!
I will follow in these footsteps. I will get my license after the military and eventually open up my own shop. I will have my own RUclips channel. Watch out for me in Atlanta Georgia!
This is awesome, it shows the different aspects of barbering and different styles also.
You look good - You feel good. Keep up the great job gentlemen!
Bingo, the man nailed it ... 'Make less money and be happy' - that's me through and through. Apparently the job satisfaction of Barbers as a profession is very high - it's a social activity and you get to see the product of your labour walk out the door with a smile on their faces.
I wish there were places like these guys shops in nj.
Yeah, me too. Nowhere cool like that to go here in MD either.

justin brady thanks man!
This video made me want to become a barber. Did my first cut the other day and it was the sweetest of feels.
Barbering is their love and passion. I'm positive that these tattoos mean a great deal to them.
A great way to spend the weekend, or after a hectic day at work, is a nice professional shave and simple facial massage at a vintage and characterful barber shop. When I'm back in the States for a short while, I'll always visit The Modern Man barber shop in Portland.

BLISS!.

This vid always makes me want to be a barber.
Hi,
What is the haircut at 0:40 min called?
Servus Marc,
Die Frise nennt sich Pompadour (sehr kurz gehalten).
Die ist oldschool/rockabilly.
Ich hab auch die Frisur, nur etwas länger.Vorbehaltlos zu empfehlen,sieht genial aus und ist schnell in Form gebracht.
Und wir Jungs können mit unserer Pomade hantieren ;-) !
Gruß Björn
Belze bart
Ich meine speziell den ausrasierten Scheitel.
I´m the BluesDfender
Den lass ich mir auch immer machen,aber wie man das nennt,keine Ahnung?Sieht aber geil aus......
Das hatten die bei mir im Barbershop damals auch gemacht, der hat abe reinfach nur gefragt ob er den Scheitel ausrasieren soll. Weiß nicht ob es da nen speziellen Namen für gibt
Das müsste der Razor Faded Pompadour sein...LG
Thanks. I'm gonna continue to strive and reach my goal.
Dope atmosphere. Barbering is an art I agree
Would love to work in a barber shop like any of these! Very cool.
Major respect for these guys.
Great video !!! Just giving a shout out to my local barbershop here in Fresno Ca and these two guys are great and the shop is a sports shop from football to boxing and it's just a great place to hangout and get a cut !!! Leonels barbershop !!!
It makes me wish we had a shop like this in or around SLC Utah!
I'm astonished this place is amazing!
Truly inspiring!
I wish that this level of passion was over in the UK... America it is!
Great video! I've had the same barber for 25 years. If you are in Lexington, Ky, USA, your should come to Hi-Acres Barber Shop for sure. Real classy.
I am Brazilian and I would love to know when VC will do a workshop, I'm your fan and would like some tips from the master ... hug and success
What's the song that starts at 0:15?
This is Amazing and I feel inspired to become a Barber or one day open A Barbershop and Tattoo shop. Great guys here
Although I prefer to have my hair cut textured and messy, I can't express enough how cool this is that the barber shop is making a come back, that there are business owners who are willing to go the extra mile to make something like a hair cut an experience not just a chore.
Made me cry and proud to being a barber ❤️
Great video man I loved it 💈
@nick traina that's what I'm saying. We need shops like that in michigan
Dope video, it inspired me to become better at my craft
i started working at 15, started barbering at 35, best job i've had in 20yrs
+Benjamin Jones Dope man! Im about to turn 35 and have always had a passion for this.Thinking of getting my license soon!
Real passion. Big up fot these guys!

Never go to a salon for a mans haircut! Barbers are for mens hair.
ive been shaving my head for 10+ years and im ready for something new, the closest barber to me is 2 hours away should i travel that far to get the first cut of something new just to try the new haircut or just go to a salon to have it done?
***** curly thick hair im to the point to where it stops growing normally and starts to fro out and i need the cut bad, also i have a wedding that im in coming up. what would be worth it to do at this point?
thoroughly enjoyed it Thrash Lab I love hair! :)
Great work! This is super cool!

Best way to get a haircut, love it!

Where can I find a barbershop like this in North Jersey?

Does anyone know if there any shops like these in NYC? Thanks.
