A Fresh Cut Improves Self- Esteem
Physical appearance plays a big role in our every day lives. Our appearances impact our personal, social, and professional lives whether we like it or not. A new hairstyle or a fresh cut can improve your self-esteem and have a huge impact on how you feel about yourself.
When your grooming is not up to par, it can affect your confidence and make you feel unattractive. This can lead to a loss of self-esteem and affect your personal, social, and professional life. However, taking a few steps to establish a self-care routine can help turn your confidence around and make you feel better.
A new haircut or color can have a significant impact on how you feel about yourself. It can be like starting a new chapter in life and help you feel like a brand-new person. When you feel confident in your appearance, it can improve your overall sense of self and boost your self-esteem.
Visiting a barbershop not only helps you improve your physical appearance but also allows you to connect with other people in the community. The social interaction can greatly improve your feeling of connectedness and provide a therapeutic experience.
With improved confidence and self-esteem, you will feel empowered to take on new opportunities. Deciding on your hairstyle and appearance can give you a sense of control in your life and help you feel more in charge.
Consistently keeping up with your haircuts and grooming is an essential part of your self-care routine. By taking care of yourself in this way, you are investing in your physical and mental well-being. So, what are you waiting for? Book your next appointment and feel like a million bucks!
Sharing Gems with the Next Generation
Red The Barber at the Urban Barber College in San Jose, CA sharing some wisdom and a haircut.
It is only right that my first blog post is about my recent visit to the Urban Barber College in San Jose, California. I was very fortunate to share some knowledge and a haircut with the barber students. Many were close to completing the 1500 hours of hands on training and eager to start their barbering career. I could feel the hunger in these young barbers. That visit took me back to my barber college days… We covered a lot in a short amount of time such as: the importance of a barber in their community, the social media hype, finding your place, deciding who sits in your chair and much more!
The hardest part of barber school was completing the 1500 hours of hands on training which is about 10 months of training. Students in these barbering programs take coursework in theory and receive hands on training in haircutting techniques. I was invited to share my methods and best practices for a popular haircut - the bald fade. The art and technique of the bald fade involves, clippers, detail trimmers and a good eye. Bald fade aside, I shared details of my journey as a barber and a few things you won’t learn in barber college. I look forward to visiting these ambitious students in the very near future. Thank you Urban Barber College for the opportunity!
Lastly, I offer semi private or private barbering classes to aspiring, new or seasoned barbers who want to improve their skills. I can teach you how to offer the best haircuts to your clients, leaving them feeling fresh and wanting to come back. My Master Class will provide you with the ability to create a quality haircut in a timely manner, which is the secret to success in the world of men’s hair-styling. You can request an appointment at redthebarbersj.com - Master Class Monday.
I’ll share some key learnings or gems as I like to call them, here on my blog. Stay tuned and welcome to the Red the Barber Blog. - Red
