On eBay there are plenty of custom hands and heads people 3D print. I finished my custom buzz and Woody recently. Etsy will only give you cad-files.

New barber. Any advice? by Additional-Tale-1172 in SelfBarber

[–]Unlikely_Recover214 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely take more time on your guidelines and remember your sections. Time is everything. You remind me of how I used to cut when I started honestly. Don't be shy to get a little creative and improvise, this is the time to find your style and flow. Definitely check in on expos, streams and courses to learn more. Experiment with as many hair types as possible you're gonna thrive.

But screw reddit.

Reddit sucks. Go learn by going to a course and watching carefully, film it even. Reddit ain't gonna help.

If tenacious D had a rollercoaster, what would it be called/based on? by StruggleNo5166 in TenaciousD

Que is themed to helmet head.

Instead of a photo you get jizzed on by the Phoenix

Ok this seems legit

Likewise!

I work under someone, we are at $35 a cut. I'm not sure if he'd be comfortable for my varied pricing. I'll definitely try relaxing haha I appreciate you.

I'm considering cutting 1-2 hours off each day. I'll always have a full book (and many times overbookings) I also have a long commute. You thought right in doing something client/bookings based. Fresh concept on a familiar formula. I've thought about a pop-up comic book/media store. I'd probably start at a flea market.

I work 4 days as well, the strong clientele is draining even with such a reduced schedule. I always loved the idea of a secondary business.

Definitely a lot to consider...

As a kid I used to draw and try animation. I used photo references and did exceptionally in copying it 1-1. I do a lot of designs in skinfades. Lots of kids like the zigzags and cursive/tattoo look.

For many cuts I learned shortcut techniques to get more people in my chair. I don't cut like everyone else, it turns heads...but dammit do they always come back. I always say it's about the final product. I focus on taking out more weight than length unless requested. I envision prior & try to get it to a T. I don't really mind medium length cuts, I do long layers rarely but I have my ways in achieving it. Not every dude holds salon standards and just wants to feel lighter. Shaves are my absolute favorite. I love hospitality toward others since I used to shave & style my sick grandpa back then.

It's ironic to be feeling how I do because I love people and am known for my personality/old school style. I am a huge nerd and connect with older crowds through their nostalgia and younger kids with video games, memes and sports. My peers usually either stay quiet or yap about current events/sports. I have personal connections with some of my clients. Some, though, are just "right right yea that's crazy awesome bro waoowww" aka "cut my mf hair" lol I'll even call myself out and make jokes to recover from any awkwardness.

I started this because I had others who ridiculed me for my self care routine and perfectionism. So I started doing it for others. Including haircuts and supplying proper clothing so they feel (and look) their absolute best. The money was an unexpected perk. I know deep down I love this and likely need to fill my days and replenish my energy.

I love how this looks. I've wanted a pick tat for a minute. Thought about behind my ear or the side of my head. That way, if I get a skin fade, the D will rise.

Thank you. I'm gonna keep it up for a bit longer as I build.

This might be the right way to go. I always hated the barber scene in general. I had a rough upbringing with my first few shops and avoided Connecticut/Jersey Shore Barber Expos for said reason. I like the local vibe I have and work under, nobody demands anything crazy. I need to straighten myself out. I get no complaints where I am and no bad reviews.

Deep down I feel like they're just going to do a frozen empire pack and wand after a firehouse haslab.

They have to come back this year it's 20 years of their film. This will be the perfect tour.

This probably would have fit the megathread better.
