Nothing but facts.

Patience is a virtue

💈💈 I'm 8 months in now luckily for me Barbering was a 2nd career I was passionate bout learning and wanted to pursue so I came with the money to survive until I got clientele.. now it's payback I'm trying to take over 💈💈

Man this is very true in so many aspects of life. People look at the instant price of things and not the value of things. Those are very different figures and outcomes no matter what part of life you are talking about. Value is always more important than initial cost in my opinion.

Aye thank you bro. I’m making the change from working in the shop to opening a salon suite in the next few months. What you were saying solidified me in leaving. I asked the owner for a booth rental option and was told no. Gotta make that change for myself for the future

Good stuff Boss man!

Thank you! This is definitely something I needed to hear. I’m a barber from Guam who’s been cutting for 6 years, and I’m moving to Vegas to start all over. I’m nervous because I’m starting fresh with no clientele, but I’m so excited to see what new opportunities come my way. I hope to work for a shop owner who cares about their barbers like you do!

Great feedback for new barbers. I will be signing up for the mentorship soon.

Bro facts all day cause most shop owners don't really care about their barbers growing it's hard to find a shop like that and when I get my shop I'll be looking for a team to grow with and when it's time they'll go out and get their own shop I love to see other people grow...👍

Chris thank you for This video I really needed to hear that I really do look to you as a barber 💈

After watching your videos my whole mentality change I’m been in the industry for 14 years never think of doing my own thing just was afraid of commitment

Great advice. I started out 50/50, but my shop owner invests in training so he adds value to his barbers. But I do feel commission should be capped at a certain point to allow a barber to truly grow is income. I do see why a shop owner who truly invests in his barbers would do commission though

Keep these content coming, I love it.

Love the gems man! Thank you 🙏

Great advice 👊🏻

Bruh I’ll take a 50/50 anyday…. I just found a apprenticeship opportunity. I’m about to use that time to cut as much as possible. Then I’m definitely gone invest in your accounting website.

!!!!!!!! Love this

They say these energy drinks lead to hair loss

Great knowledge

Question. Where I’m having issues as a booth rent shop owner. I rent out to someone and they don’t come in and just sit like I did when I was growing. They say “I’m going home. Call me if something comes in and I’ll come back.” The last 3 I’ve brought have done that to me and as soon as I said “absolutely not! If someone who is here is available to take them, then they get first dibs.” They bounce out everytime. They have a blurred mindset between booth rent and commission. They want me to go out and get customers for them and advertise for them (which I advertise the shop frequently) as commission, but want the freedom of booth rent. I’ve been in this industry 25 years and finding people who are committed to growing is like finding a unicorn in my area!

What's up Chris and that's good to hear from you bro and alot barber don't even don't care about it and I wanna to be a real leader to work as a team for helping each other out

You always speak sense but not always on the most obvious things but they seen obvious after you explain them. Ive worked in places where the chair rent increases every year where ive gone in and my tools have been damaged by other barbers or customers . Ive worked in places that havent changed in 30 years and when they come up against competition they dont know what to do . They say shit like “ i cant wait for fades to die out “ but never the attitude to start improving and learning and marketing . Instead they just show up and open up . Ive worked places that havent seen product on 20 years where thr customers actually complain that youve offered product . All i want is a shop where i can learn a bit more and improve my game but the example i get set is fast shitty looming cuts and bad habits . I think the type of shop owner your talking about here doesnt even exist in my town . I wish to fuck i could find somebody like yourself just to give me some guidance and shit . The thing about the 30 year barbers youre saying is so so true . To be fair though the good teams never seem to have spaces at their shops

When we gonna talk about retirement. And benefits ?

As a barber you need to find a place that will be a great environment for your clients and yourself as a barber.

This is a progress to do it and just gotta to put it to work

Drinking energy drinks ain’t thinking long term tho! lol

Everyone want booth rent until they go on vacation and find out they already used their one week rent free vacation on a weekend getaway and still gotta pay rent after their actual vacation. I been found 70/30 at my shop for almost 2 years now they both definitely have their pros and cons

More 💎

i love you

Great content as always ! Hey Bossio is the best place to contact you and your team through the academy or email?

I wouldn't do commission long term unless I'm being paid on a w2 . I see these shops around military bases doing their people dirty 1099ing them on a bad split. When the shut downs happened they got no help because of blatant employee misclassification .

2023 my barber charging 30 for lineups n 40 for full cut 🥶🥶 rip 15$ wave cuts when I was in HS

What is the best way to tell the shop owner that you want to go on your own? After working for 3 years with him

So what'd your opinion on a biggish shop with 9 barbers where only two are consistently booked? Does that mean that area is too small not enough clients?

"I know my worth" 🤡
