You can make a lot of money but it really depends on where you are and how your clientele moves. Let's be real, most customers don't move the same since Covid and they probably never will again. Prices on everything keep going up and somehow people are expecting that their clients are supposed to want to come in every two weeks......yeah, that's not happening. Now maybe if you're doing more than 50 hours/5 days a week, sure.....but if you have a thing called "A Life", you don't have time to he wasting, working and never seeing your family. I pull around $70,000 a year, cash and that is good enough for me. Pay taxes if you want but save that money and figure out what to do with some of it because social security is a joke, might not even be around for you to collect it. I'll tell you this. Even $50,000 a year is nice, when you're taking it all home. That's why you don't do business with credit cards, make those motherfuckers pay in cash - besides, you have to pay for that card transaction system and pay on every transaction you make. Work smarter, not harder.
I book through Booksy at this barbershop who controls the prices there’s like 12-15 barbers they all charge $35 through Booksy do these barbers choose the prices or the shop owners?
That’s a very hard question to answer. It’s all about preference. I would recommend magic clippers if you want something that’s high quality for a low price. But cordless seniors are top tier forsure
i just switched careers into being a barber and a shop is trying to charge me $600 a week to rent a chair... is that too high and am i being taken advantage of
