Nice video bro

[@Bossiocuts]

***** thanks bro!

[@jaylynwaiters6668]

+chris bossio hey what's up man? Great bid. I have a question. What would you suggest a new barber start with booth rental or commission? Is that the norm for a barber shop to pay commission or do most barber shops do booth rental only? The reason I'm asking is because I'm going to barber school and booth rental starting out just seems crazy to me with no clients. What your take on that

[@randycaguioa6554]

i am watching all of your tutorials, chriss bossio and 360jeezy, i love to be a barber even if i dont have a good clippers and t edgers, im your #1 fan sir's from the philippines.

[@unknow9544]

360 JEEZY!!!!!!!!!!

[@PC-uh6hk]

I've been a barber for 35 years. I own my shop and I work alone. I charge $16 a haircut and most give me $20 and tell me to keep the change. I do three cuts an hour for 8 hours and take my money to the bank. I've worked for franchises and in full service salons in the past and worked with some of the best in the business and can tell you, you can never learn enough about all of what barbering is. But in a nutshell becoming a barber can be the best thing you ever did for yourself.

[@buddahgaray60]

my biggest fear is to fail as a barber not only for myself but for my family not being able to provide.ive been cutting since I was a freshman in high school but never in a shop never thought about it as a full time career I was doing it on the side but after watching you man you definitely give me confidence I'm also in florida I'm in North west Florida

[@nathanielbell9887]

I was just like you, had a family to provide fresh outta barber school. Just live in the shop and I promise it's gonna come

[@Brianxx01]

I have the same problem! After watching this vid it definitely motivated me to go to barber school...thanks man!

[@rizz091a]

i thought the same thing boss but u just gotta create your own lane come up with a great marketing strategy, portfolio, n videos to show off how good you are... take advantage of social networking...

[@thesuccessfulbarber]

You got it. I live in jax fl. Youll make great $

[@sid.v609]

Adair Gardellini What I see here isn’t that it is your fear to become a barber, probably your problem is a that you’re having thois inside fear for probably many other thing. I really hope I’m wrong though. Imma tell you only one thing bro. Do what your heart tells you its the best. 0% Fear 100% faith and commitment, and believe me, you’ll never regret it. Even if you fail, it is always, always worth the shot. Peace man

[@putospic]

In under 3 minutes you gave so much info to help people manage their expectations and to encourage people to go for it

[@sjones5569]

been cuttin for about 10 years started in a city shop now I'm more in the burbs I charge 15 a cut and average 25 to 30 heads a day. I work 5 and half days a week and all my money is in cash. don't listen to Google, go to barber school

[@sjones5569]

I also wanna include that I don't know any barbers who are struggling

[@Bossiocuts]

+slicin & dicin facts!

[@CALIFORNIAsGAMER]

S Jones you have the option to work 7 days a week right?

[@CreatedbyLeon]

KPOPFANBOYUK i give my barber 20 everytime and he only charges 13 for a lineup. its hard to find a good barber he will most definetly keep his clientele with no problem haha

[@royaltyreal8185]

KPOPFANBOYUK , I totally disagree, there's no one that I know in this world that is willing to pay minimum for an average cut. People ARE willing to pay PREMIUM for a great cut. It's the natural law of "demand and supply."

[@zanejohnson5983]

Dude I'm pretty pumped I watched this video. I really want to be a barber buy the Google salary searches were freaking me out. Thanks a lot dude

[@JRLMBeats]

google searches are bullshit when it comes to barbers.. if you are nice.. you will be overbooked.

[@bennyscissorhands6477]

yep i put in my 10hrs 4days a week, im allgood, the truth is you gotta care about your work, people expect consistency from their barbers, thats what keeps em comin back

[@Bossiocuts]

Benjamin Jones consistency is def a key way to win bro!

[@jacobwhite2935]

I live in Montreal,Canada average cuts with beard here is 30$ + tips at 15-20 heads a day (let's say 18 heads=540$) × 5=2700$ - 350$ for you barber chair = 2350$ a week ! So that's 122k a year before taxes + tips.. average good barber in Montreal makes between 80k to 100k a year with tips. So just follow your dreams and dont worry about what google says

[@user-ld4fl8bt4f]

A1 comment bro

[@certified2919]

That if you can get 18 people out the 5 days. Your busiest days are Friday-sun so 18 out of 5 days isn’t realistic

[@lukefarrell3147]

My barber drives a brand new bmw, i cant imagine 22k being realistic, especially with all the tips, commision, wage ect.

[@Simon_Cow]

My stepson is a barber in Washington Heights NYC, he averages $1000 a day but he pays $350 weekly rent for the chair he uses to cut hair.

[@reformedbarber]

I appreciate you sharing that. The salary question almost scared me away too, especially since I have a family to care for. But I love bartering and I'm all in and plan to make mucho dinero. Thanks again.

[@Bossiocuts]

Anthony Del Valle thats awesome... i have a stay at home wife and 2 kids so i can relate.. they are not missing a thing and barbering will bring you exactly that bro mucho dinero.. law of attraction is real

[@bbyskittles91]

This makes sense. I get stuck on the numbers sometimes.

[@alexromero4472]

I feel the exact same way you did when you explained it at the beginning of the video! I was kind of scared because of those numbers being so low, but your video inspired me to go after my dream of being a barber! Thank you so much for this video!

[@serjiokemper4170]

I feel the same way. When l saw the numbers l was discouraged. I dont want to make it a living though but more so extra money. Thank you for your point of view

[@DapperDonzX]

My big homie cuts 30-40 heads a day TAX FREE on his porch.

[@Bossiocuts]

***** does he have his license

[@DapperDonzX]

yeah breh. he caking off his side business. he's going to open up his own shop next year. most people underestimate barbering. its an underrated career to pursue in.

[@gotchabud3047]

30-40 a day. Thats a fucking lie

[@lucianflorea3220]

@@gotchabud3047 yeah. Max 15-20

[@briancarbajal9]

I make a cool $200-$300 tax free on the weekend as a side thing. It all depends on your clients and how much you charge. I charge less than most shops in my area and I have about 25 loyal customers that I see weekly. about 6 of them bi weekly. It’s decent even part time.

John Arway I got out of the army last year year and went straight into barber school. been licensed now for 7 months and don't regret doing it or ever will.

[@E.RHYMES]

Stay in the Army. Thats guaranteed money and benefits. The barber game is a cash and carry deal. No free medical or dental. No retirement plan. Your reward? The cash you take home everyday. Add in your booth or shop rent and expenditures that cut into your profit margin. You want to go to school? Go into a career that will guarantee you some benefits and a retirement plan. The barber game is no joke.

[@joelperez1773]

it's all about that dream job. someone once told me do I see myself doing what I do for free? and I said no. the dream job/career is something you'll do with a passion to the best of your ability. wish you the best of luck 🔥

[@OPTIMUMELITE]

Yeah. I noticed that.

[@alloneword154]

If you do the hard work and long hours and educate yourself from the beginning you will get good. And the money will come. If you have people work for you you can make six figures really quick. Learn how to properly do scissor haircuts. Don't limit yourself. In the beginning learn from people who are doing the best haircuts. And lastly, do not take barber/hairdressing school as a joke.

[@PrimeTrooper69]

Currently in barber school now in Arkansas and its a complete total joke. The owner is mainly a businessman, don’t even give you everything that’s supposed to come in the kit cuz their just too damn lazy, they don’t show up to school 2 times out every week AT LEAST. Or they will pull up late as hell, we don’t do mych but just sit around and wait for people to come in, our “instructors” are all girls who have no idea how to cut hair. I’ve been in barber school for almost a year now, woulda been graduating in August if the corona never happened. In almost my whole year of being there I can’t say I’ve ever actually learned anything from an “instructor” there and everything I’ve learned has been self taught through experience. It’s so disappointing to spend $20k on a barber school that has taught me nothing when they claim they’re the best in the state. The whole school is a joke, nevertheless I show up everyday and put in the work so I can get that damn paper but without the help of any officials from the school. Sorry for the rant but man all of us in the school just wish so bad to have someone that can teach us something

[@bigc1267]

do it because you love the trade. and the money will come with the love. if you do it only for the money chances are you will never have the dedication to reach your full potential and will just be a barber with few return customers or will be jumping from shop to shop thinking the grass is greener on the other side.

[@johnnylawrence1516]

I talked to a barber in my area his name is Henry and he has his own barber shop called Henry G's, i told him how was cutting hair and the new clippers I got, and he said Barbers always have money in their pocket, he said since he started cutting he's never been broke again and he told how he got to buy his own house and a car, and take care of his family. He told me he learned from cutting his friend and cousins and when he went to prison he always knew how to cut so they started paying him, and cool thing is he said he learn how to fade with a razor and comb. He said as a barber you'll always have money but you just got to put in the work.

[@a1errthing]

not really sure. maybe because the local barbershops I'm used to seeing aren't the type of atmosphere I want to work around. maybe if I found a nice open minded upscale shop that takes pride in their services Id change my mind. but I'm still considering the option.

[@Bossiocuts]

ant rozay create what you want for yourself bro. set that goal and open that shop up yourself. everything you do from now till then should just be you working towards that goal. set your own reality.. good luck on your journey man wish you much success on w.e you decide

[@tyherr5072]

how much does a Barber make? is unlimited, it's up to the individual skills..that simple.

[@ewinter9021]

plus you decide how much you charge per head anyway. So assuming you pop #30 dollars a day on 15 heads a day then you hit 450 daily. Or change your prices / head count, so up to you

[@maryewards9474]

[@Bossiocuts]

+Mary Ewards huh?

[@maryewards9474]

Ya you got some skills alright

[@DrCDRR]

appreciate the vid. there isn't an abundance of info online about a barbers actual pay like other careers. more barbers need to post videos or forums online discussing the pay. there is always an average in every career and barbering is not different. I like the fact of not having a limit to what you can make, but for the new inspiring barber there needs to be more info about actual pay. not generalizations but actual numbers from people in the game.

[@Bossiocuts]

This is not like any other career necessarily. Some barbers are employees some are self employed.. you can't give a general pay on thousands of enteepeneurs...

[@questallday1]

I should be asleep now lol! Its 2pm and I gotta get ready for work at 8pm. But reading some these comments. Alot of ppl around my way keep telling me, "ahhh that's dope you wanna learn it pays mad money"!

[@revlaird6979]

Can you please give a video in terms of when you do the coloring of hair relaxers on a hair as a barber and I'd like to know where you ever taught how to add eyelash extensions as I noticed that the Xtreme Lashes only allows those that are estheticians Barbers and cosmetologist to you no train for a week's time in adding eyelashes and finally I have the question of as a barber I noticed that they never crossed trained you all in school how to style a woman's hair how to cut it in a pageboy a bob how to Marcel curl it, things of that nature can you tell me why that is why are they not teaching Barbers to be just as diverse as cosmetologist

Can u do a video explaining how barbers pay taxes in Florida?

[@Bossiocuts]

Mekhi mcgowan hell yeah man i used to wonder the same thing!

[@elliottneblett2208]

Mekhi mcgowan most dont and end up broke because of it. but, for those barbers who are smart and have a sense of business there are so many different ways to file taxes being a barber. it also depends on if you own your own shop or rent booths or if you are an employee. most barbers rent booth space which would make them an independent contractor. they would have to file a simple 1040 and a 1099 miscellaneous if your booth rent yearly is more than 500 or 600.00. i believe its 600.00. a shop owner would have to file a little different. if they have employees, then they have to take taxes out of their employee checks and file quarterly with a 941 tax form and so on. employees dont have to worry about much because the shop owner/employer is responsible for handling all of that just like a regular 9-5 job. then, you have a different way or form for filing your tips made 4070A. but, we all know, tips go straight to the pocket and dont get claimed for shit. not all of them anyways. LOL.

[@elliottneblett2208]

you are right. the sky is the limit being a barber. but, it seems like in today's time, a barber must really brand himself if he wants to live nicely and comfortable in the long run. there is no retirement and tbh most barbers are too damn dumb to think about 401ks and what not. im not saying you or any of the other great barbers are this way but most barbers are. its a bit easier in today's time to brand yourself with social media but like you said the barber has to go out and grind and get it with advertisement, social media, etc. the best thing about being a barber is that you get to do something you love doing and its a trade that can be done at an older age. my thing is that id like to be able to spend some time in my later years not having to work. (although most barbers dont look at doing something they love work but, it is what it is) sorry for oing on and on i got caught up rambling LOL. what do you think about this comment though id like to hear your thoughts or feelings about this. thanks for the vid as always.

[@Bossiocuts]

Elliott Neblett you just gave me my next video friend lol! really appreciate you taking the time to type out your thoughts. i think thats a huge misconception and ill go into detail.. one of the reasons i chose to be a barber is the ability to become financially free alot sooner than a 401k can do for me

[@elliottneblett2208]

chris bossio i feel ya my man and im glad that my comment was able to give you the idea of your next vid. yeah its clear that you are much more business minded and smarter than the average barber especially here in my town. i stay in Gainesville, FL up the road from you and these cats here seem just to be worried about the right now. looking back at my comment, i did leave out the fact that financial freedom can be reached sooner but it is on the barber like you said. yeah, a smart barber who knows to plan for the future or put a lil away for rainy days can definitely get where they can be comfortable and more free a lot sooner than a 401K. thanks for the reply and your comment made me open my brain and eyes as well. thanks for that. ive always loved cutting hair and truly wouldnt mind getting my license and becoming a full time barber but i keep thinking about my two small boys, my state job that has a pension and the fact that i would have to start all over again puts a bit of fear in me to be honest. here i go again. rambling on. let me stop here. LOL. thanks for the reply once again and stay blessed bruh.

*1000 a day??? Come on man.* You would have to book $50 hair cuts, and do 20 a day. You would need about 1-200 clients who follow you to pay $50 hair cuts. HEAR ME; You can make a living as a barber, but most don't make near that much.

[@Bossiocuts]

+IP Man I own 7 barber shops.. I’m not speaking theory.. obviously the top guys are making 1k a day never said it was average.. but 1 to 3k a week is pretty realistic

[@ipman3564]

Chris. 3k @ week---man, that's making 600@day,...avg cut is 20, that's 30 cuts a day, (no breaks), *that's 8 hrs straight, 6 days a week.* In order to get 30 cuts a day, you need a following of 1-200 strong clients. *THAT'S BEFORE EXPENSES* (rent, supplies etc). IF your chair rental is $400/week, that means you making $600 wk, (if you gross 1k). YOU GOT any videos on how this 1-3k (take home) is achievable?

[@Bossiocuts]

+IP Man do you own any barbershops or cut hair for a living? .. average cut is not 20

[@badbee00]

IP Man don’t sleep on the chain salon. It’s all about being smart and having a plan. The shop I work at a cut is $40 and the shave is $36. I’ve built up a strong foundation and I booth rent in walking distance to the old place, kept my prices the same and I bang 5-700 my 4 days a week. I also do events for my clients and I come to them for more. So just think outside of the 📦

[@torchofice16]

Plus you got people like Arod who is charging 100 a cut, it can happen

[@robertstinson4948]

Wished I lived where you cut hair. Very talented!

[@majorgamerboii7043]

Thx dude your awesome

[@james575730]

where is this guy located? what area does he work in? ps appreciate the video

[@Bossiocuts]

im in tampa fl

[@james575730]

chris bossio oh cool I'm in Miami, I wanted to be a barber but when I went to school I was intimidated, I went in with the attitude of like ok I'm going to school to learn how to cut hair, but the environment was very competitive because all the students new how to cut hair, they were just there to get there license, all barbers seem to have been doing it when they were little kids and some learned in prison but nobody was really about teaching, infact they were clowning me cus I didn't know what I was doing, so I have a question for you, I'm not a good drawer, can I still be a good barber? and I'm 26 years old can I still learn to be a good barber even though I have no experience? if so how long you think it will take to learn? thank you

[@mikec8735]

chris bossio you talk like a New York nigga

[@mikec8735]

chris bossio nothing bad just noticed it yo, keep doin ya thang

[@jordans1917]

Chris Bossio yo you in tampa still? How much you charge?

[@VERIFIED_COMMENT]

it all depends on where u are located, that determines ur income.

[@Bossiocuts]

+coolkixz idk if that's all.. but I do think it's helps to be In high income areas

[@VERIFIED_COMMENT]

+chris bossio it's one main factor I have a cousin that owns a shop in the urban area of the bronx vs our good freind that owns a shop upstate and my cousin has more clients that come in than our boy in upstate .. idk but I do know location is key.

[@Bossiocuts]

It's a numbers game .. volume vs price may still even up if we're talking revenues right? So it's just the type of service you want to offer really..

[@heyitzronin]

You got some nice vids, plz try to make a vid of using scissors on the top that would be well appreciated

[@Bossiocuts]

RoninCisMe thx will do

[@dezniqqadez]

I've made a thousand in one day only once, I average (thurs-sat) prob 200 a day not bad for 15 a head

[@geezergains4843]

What did you do to make $1000.00 in a day ? That would be 60 cuts at $25.00 a head ?

[@Bossiocuts]

+Geezer Gains you don't make a thousand in a day in volume. Movies, busy people, magazines, etc need stylists and they expect you there all day at their convenience.

[@geezergains4843]

I recommend barbers use their trade as springboard to eventually leave the trade due to its labor intensive nature. The most I've ever made in one day is $400+. Although it was nice....I busted my ass like no other. Guys/Gals......do something online.....that's where the real cash is ! Educate yourself and move forward !

[@Bossiocuts]

+Geezer Gains is reccommend that for any profession. Diversify your streams of income and create multiple assets.. trading time for money should never be a long term gig. Even doing something you love starts to get old quickly if you HAVE to do it to make a living

[@syafiqulaiman6950]

in my country we make around 350 dollars per month.. thats around 1200MYR.. wahl senior cordless in here is around 1000MYR.. so when i bought that senior im just eating instant noodle for a month to saved money.. my country doesnt appreciate artwork yet.. i charge them 15MYR in usd around 4usd.. its hard man.. thats why im planning to quit barbering

[@jonasramirez2473]

[@MrWhitelightning73]

My barber used to charge $4.00 now I’m paying $10.00 he is always busy. I always tip. Seems like you can make bank if you’re quick and efficient 💈

[@champion_westcoast7545]

[@thesuccessfulbarber]

I own a 3 chair shop. Have 1 other person working there now but on a really hard day I can make 350 or 400. An easy day I make 175.. An average day is 250. If I get a 3rd guy i will make another 30 or 40 a day

[@IDOMEUDOU_]
