A good haircut is like makeup, it can either change a face for the better or make it look worse!
Ever went to a barber shop to get your hair all pampered and ready for a night out, yet, you ended up being demotivated from going outside because the resulting cut just didn’t look like how you imagined it? Well, fret no more because we’ve got a list of trusted shops that you can go to for that perfect look!
But first, let’s check out what criteria we considered for determining the must-try barber shops in Cebu:
- Budget-Friendly: Not necessarily a 50-peso haircut but a price that’s between Php 150.00 to Php 200.00 is reasonable especially for students and newly employed folks.
- Great Product Qualities: Most barber shops offer hair wax, shampoos, and conditioners for their clients, which is great; but, the products must be of high-quality.
- Masculine Ambiance: When the price of a haircut is high, it is possible that what you’re paying for is not just the service but also the ambiance of the location. A relaxing place makes a great and enjoyable experience, which adds to the positive feedback that the barber shop will receive from their clients.
- Knowledgeable & Skilled Barbers: Imagine going to a barber shop and then going out with haircuts similar to the other clients on the chair; that would be a nightmare similar to seeing two other people wearing the same dress as yours. It is important for barber shops to hire skilled and knowledgeable staff who can curate and personalize a cut to benefit the client’s features. For instance, if a client has a square face, then overly thick bangs should not be suggested, while round faced dudes must steer clear from buzz cuts, unless required to do so.
- Consistent: Haircuts are done every 4 to 6 weeks for men and if you’re a fan of a specific style, then you should look for a barber shop who can help you keep and manage the style.
