The Future of Barbering

Shame Barbering has become a 2nd choice profession but if thats the way its become so be it..

That was an interesting piece. And very true. I'd love to see how other areas of the country are doing.

There will always be plenty of ethnic shops. All the ethnic men know is barber shops, they never go to salons. Caucasians on the other hand are a different story, alot of them never been in a barbershop, or never will go in one for that matter. There are to many salons around now, I really do not know how one could make it starting a salon. Same goes with ethnic barbershops.. about 25 minutes away from me there are literally 5 ethnic barbershops within 1 mile. I guess that is why I love doing what I do because there are very few of us left doing it and the demand will always be there for the people who appreciate the traditional barber.
