I'm an aspiring barber. Your barber videos motivate me like no other! PLEASE MORE!

[@artofmanliness]

New video! Shave and a Haircut: Razbacks Barbershop. Please share!

[@lisaTahlulhaMaysmallshaw]

I know lots of guys who shave with straights, they will love this vid, :D

[@SteveBarnes]

I wish I had a guy like this in the area.

[@JamesLFilms]

Nothing like getting that classic cut at a good old fashioned Barber Shop. Great Video!

[@artofmanliness]

We're hoping to make this a series. Any suggestions on barbershops we visit next?

[@artofmanliness]

"5" on the sides and back with the clippers. Tapered back. Take a bit off the top, but keep it long enough so I can part it.

[@GeuntherInc]

Great video! We need to take back our standards from the chain stores. Barber shops like this give me a sense of community even though I havent had a pro-cut in years.

[@StuartLoria]

When you are visiting another town, get a shave at a barber shop, community should support these initiatives.

[@dylanakent]

Love seeing focuses on small businesses doing it right by their customers in an old fashioned way!

[@cfhasib]

so does this shop have any customers other than Ferdie Mercury?

[@jeffbrady7840]

YES! Max's Barbershop in Gas City, IN. Especially if you talk to Chad Dilts. The best barber in town. Then again, Gary's Barbershop in Upland, IN has the coolest old-fashioned hard-wood counter and old-style huge chair.

[@benjamima8]

Man I wish I lived closer to this barber shop. I use the IMPERIAL product line, best pomade I've ever used. Hands down.

[@107305jason]

Just got my first haircut there today. Best haircut experience I've ever had. Really great environment and they work with you.

[@StuartLoria]

Great, support your local barber, make the barber shop a temple of manliness

[@psychobob37]

Favorite AoM video to date. Nice work!

[@MascisMan1]

I'm impressed. Heading over to buy some products online now!

[@itsjasooon]

I just got a fresh comb over from RJ last Thursday. Awesome crew! One of the best cuts I've had!

[@SV8812]

This video is truly superb.

[@sibkiss2009]

There is a barber shop in Topeka KS that specializes in fantastic hair cuts - Debonaire's, it has been written up in the newspaper... but the cuts that I am really talking about are the cool carving designs. I am a cosmetology student who is also considering barbering because I am good at it.

[@grovetexas2087]

Thats the thing with people complaining about the prices they want a good haircut but dont want to pay the price some go to a salon and they mess them up well you do get what you pay for

[@AndrewEdling]

That's my boy Pedro! I first met him at Syndicate years ago and glad to see he's doing well. I'm in PHX now but next time I'm in town I'm stopping in for sure.

[@MargoMetsoja]

I like the music in this video, gives a good old classic feel to it.

[@no15145]

Great dapper old style hair cuts!

[@charliechang9mil]

Hawleywood's Barber Shop is a must

[@TanTanRahlf]

Danburry Barber Shop in Provo, UT. Great barber, plus it'll give Kate a chance to go see her Alma Mater (Provided Brett and Kate travel together for these shoots)

[@lovejon2death]

I was excited to see this video before I found out it was the created of Imperial. Definitely really cool.

[@neil2763]

Great video as always.

[@BjornvanSinttruije]

More videos like this one please, I really enjoyed watching this!

[@Minusthefluff]

I'm not sure if you guys ever get out of Cali. but if you ever find yourselves in Columbus, OH. There's a great shop called Old Familiar Barber Shop. Totally worth it.

[@ForceJerry]

Can't wait for the next video. :)

[@benjamima8]

Imperial barber products are great. I suggest trying them out.

[@TheJoritomo]

Please, what is the music? I LOVE IT

[@motzmare1]

Lennartz Olde Time Barber Shop in Dayton Ohio! My buddy got me a straight razor shave before my vows in a Religious Order. They even sell the Art of Manliness book there!

[@towmotornoises]

A barbershop with beer on tap? That sounds amazing.

[@aarpn2]

where I live, haircuts are 11 dollars.

[@1hdsquad]

This video brought a smile to my face :) Id like to go there!

[@georgetoribio3326]

I wish there was a barbershop like this in Orlando, FL. Hard to find a good classic barber.

[@herondelacerda]

Eleanors barbershop

[@guentherishere]

I didn't even know a barbershop like this existed. I wish there was one near Denton, Tx. Or maybe there is and I just don't know about it... researching now. LOL

[@chrisoconnor4562]

Rick's Chop Shop in Mt Airy MD is a must

[@SouthG8t]

Nice Video! Good Quality! This shop looks great!

[@D3FS3]

Old Glory in Venice Beach. Ernie's Chop Shop in Torrance Hawleywoods in Costa Mesa

[@TheseShenanigans]

Yay, new video

[@coldblue789]

Thank you Zortan Urban

[@mauimudpup]

Wish it been open when I was there. Never found a regular place to go when I lived there.

[@RyanJensenEE]

awesome. great video!

[@mauimudpup]

That is Brett MacKay founder of Art of Manliness.

[@Lp22522]

I know this great barbershop in Shipshewana, Indiana. $10.00 a haircut, $9.00 for citizens 60 and over. Men only, lots of business, one barber, best quality.

[@bhuber12]

You should do a video on how to communicate what you want to your barber. I always have this problem.

[@KAM1138a]

$25! My barber shop is $13, and that's a huge jump from the $6 my now retired Barber used to charge.

[@harlock75]

Great video guys, keep the good work.

[@irishCRUNKLYz]

It'd be really cool if you could visit Hawleywood's in Costa Mesa.

[@21danger21]

I have always wanted to go get a shave at a barbershop but I just cant trust having somebody with a razorblade to my throat but that's what happens when you only trust immediate family. and I usually just cut my own hair cause I keep it kind of short and no need to spend that kind of money on it. but sometimes I want I little style so I get somebody to do it just not very often. good video.

[@tobaccofrank]

Good stuff!

[@Stogie7884]

Hawleywood's is a great shop!

[@MrMandel2]

Great video please keep them coming :)

[@Tony007corp]

You guys are in Long beach? oh man i have to get out there at some point.

[@TylerPlaysMinecraft]

Go down to "Shorty's Barbershop" in historic Saint Charles, Missouri!

[@russellbogrett605]

The other barber in the video wears the same barber jacket that i have been wearing for the past 40 years. I have them in every color.

[@mars1936]

Classic Never Change. Dandy Guy!

[@nala2169]

visit Baxter and Finley in LA

[@gregphelan1845]

What is the song in the back ground? Great video!!! Keep them coming.

[@AmericanBarber82]

In most states using a strop is against health code and unsanitary. All barbers should know this.

[@ShieldThatGuardsTheRealmOfMen]

Special video on handlebar mustache would be great... Thumbs up if you agree :-)

[@albertobello8717]

hair looks nice...

[@tornmask1]

very interesting!

[@tjsboywonder]

Interesting.

[@toothandsticks]

As you explore the potential of a series, also explore the possibility of visiting other "manly" establishments. I fear barbershops may become repetitive over time; expand to other fields. Also, thanks for the profile pic.

[@coldblue789]

Yeah what is that music called please.

[@evilmacncheese]

What is the hairstyle called at 0:26, what would you ask for? And if you were to taper the sides more what would it be then?

[@lilacfunk]

SO handsome.

[@callanfrye1526]

I'm going to move down to Savannah soon- any suggestions for a good barber shop?

[@cobrien120]

The Handlebar Barbershop in Thousand Oaks

[@RhythmTrimJim]

Great

[@UrbanZo]

Some "inspired by" Muddy Waters' Can't be satisfied song.

[@jrdement]

You need to check out The Modern Man Barber Shop in Portland, OR. I've been going there since they opened a few years back and they're great. Go get a shot of whiskey, a cut & shave, leave with your cigar in hand and you'll feel so manly you'll be certain you just out ranked Sinatra... (Google - themodernmanpdx)

[@megamindy8568]

I would really like to go to a barber once, but for 25 bucks I could supply myself with enough razors and cream to last me like 6 months. Don't get me wrong, but I think it's kind of overpriced.

[@hillmv23]

What brand is the green apron you're wearing?

[@dwrdyts]

Actually I think barbers are not charging enough for some of the work they put out!!!!

[@KitemanTV]

The test for these places is: Do they use a strop? If they don't, then it's those cheap disposable razors that just tear your face up.

[@Magician12345]

dude i live a walk away fromt his place. but i already have my own place im a regular too so yeah.

[@johnkendrick6198]

Magician12345 where you go im in lbc an usally go to a place called mr micks but my wife would kill me paying 30

[@Magician12345]

oh i never heard of that place.

[@johnkendrick6198]

Magician12345 its on pacific ave an 19th but im thinking of trying this place

[@TheIrish765]

Ive been to this shop! Pretty cool place

[@yeungrulz]

This guy is a true barber, not some hipster bullshit.

[@killabeatzable]

Song on background?

[@srinivaskari]

0 dislikes. WOW

[@danelogan1532]

the guy in the chair looks like Freddie Mercury

[@MrErnieBertt]

1:02 What is ??

[@scoobydog411]

Did he say they only have one hair style that they do?? All customers exit looking like Freddy Mercury. Did he say only $25 bucks two times a month?? Does he give Tats?

[@holymolibbq]

Tight tight...

[@antoshahorosha]

Hate the music, love the concept, "Imperial".

[@coldblue789]

Zotel sorry damn AC

[@barfvader6712]

I go to a salon for $30 a cut.

[@TheIrish765]

Pretty shitty price though for a haircut

[@dietfreeman42718]

You're missing the point of a Man going to the Barber Shop then.

[@bbraat]

This guy suggests a $25 haircut TWICE a month rather than a $40 salon? If my haircut doesn't last at least a month you haven't done your job.

[@Dippa666]

The quality of his barber skills doesn't dictate how fast your hair grows... He means you can afford to keep your hair in that 'fresh from the shop' state.

[@theguitarmaninblack]

The only reason why I dont go to a barber shop is because I go to a salon where there are only hot chicks working there.

[@tuerkefechi]

Art of Manliness Rule No. 666: If you loose all your hair because of too much manliness, face it like a real man and have the same haircut as Bruce Willis has. It isn´t wrong to have a Die Hard-haircut ;-)

[@dwrdyts]

Overpriced my ass! To do a proper straight razor shave is a bit time consuming and takes a lot of skill!

[@JAK3THETUB3]

No self respecting man gets his haircut at a salon.

[@tundraotto]

Jake I would say the exact opposite. A real man shaves with a real manual blade - double edge or cut-throat razor. For him, a trip to a barbershop is a luxury. Don't knock it until you try it...

[@JAK3THETUB3]

BARBERSHOP, yes. SALON. NO.

[@islespatrick]

Exactly! There's a huge difference in a salon versus a barbershop. Barbers know what they're doing.
