EP004 — What to Look for Before You Take a Chair in Any Shop We break down exactly how to evaluate a barbershop before you sign a chair, cutting through gut feelings to read hard evidence. By visiting on a slow Tuesday, watching the floor dynamics, checking the owner's understanding of their own numbers, and matching their claims against what you already observed, you'll make a strategic business decision instead of an emotional one. In this episode: • Visit shops on slow Tuesdays at noon, not Saturdays, to see what's actually real • Watch how barbers move around each other to read the shop's culture in 10 minutes • Ask the owner questions you already know the answer to and listen for honesty • Ask about booking platforms and client predictability, not just chair rent price Follow on Instagram: @beforethechop Watch the full episode at beforethechop.com
