How To Find and hire licensed barbers near you

How do any of you hire barbers? I’ve tried several ways but don’t seem to find licensed barbers. My clientele is picking up but doesn’t have the barbers to service them, the barbers I currently have are great in stepping up but they have a good clientele themselves. I don’t like turning away new clients, any ideas?

here are some tips to easily find licensed barbers in your area.

scout the barber schools 

The owner of the shop I’m at found me on Instagram because I tag my photos with where I’m at. Example: I live in San Jose, CA, and use hashtags like sanjosebarber sanjosehaircut etc. I was basically recruited, the owner of the shop found my Instagram and asked me to come check the place out and if I’m interested in working there 

Look for Barbers that are willing to move to Ask the guys you work with if they know any barbers in surrounding shops who might be willing to move to your shop and let them bring their touch to the shop so you can have their ideas flow with everyone else's. It helps their shop feel like a home and family.

find barbers who did t like their current situation and offer them greener grass
