BarberEVO Magazine North America - Issue 17 (February / March 2021)

في هذه القضية

OPTIMISM IS THE NAME OF THE GAME IN THIS ISSUE. WE ARE OPTIMISTIC THAT 2021 IS GOING TO SEE EVENTS BACK IN ACTION. PEOPLE MEETING PEOPLE, THAT’S WHAT WE ALL WANT TO SEE. AND THE BIG ONES ON THE HORIZON ARE CT BARBER EXPO X AND BARBERCON.

Events and tradeshows are top of our list in this issue as we talk to those in the know. The organisers of the events, that we miss so much, talk about the chances of them going ahead, the challenges they face with staging them in a pandemic and the hopes for the ones that are scheduled for this year. We have a fantastic selection of barbershop interiors to browse. Barbers are so proud of their shops, whether they go traditional, cutting edge, minimalist, or are designing with Instagram in mind, the design is so personal, and how you choose to furnish your shop, and the décor you choose, can make or break the visual. We’ve found some knock-out barbershops that have opened their doors to BarberEVO, talked us through their décor decisions, what works for them and what they love about their shops.

A hugely important part of the hair industry right now is how it can be more sustainable. We have spoken to hair professionals who have taken their personal commitment to being eco-friendly and carried it through to their shops and their business practices. Whether you want to commit fully or just make a small change, have a read of our eco feature and see what changes you can make to be a little gentler on the planet.

Last, but certainly not least, The Barber Authority’s Steve Vilot lets us into some tour secrets as he and his band of elite barbers provide grooming services for international rock starts and the world’s top athletes. It’s a great read, and his commitment to elevating the image of barbering is commendable.

BarberEVO Magazine North America Description:

BarberEVO is a barbering culture publication – we aim to encapsulate the entire barbering movement and not just the craft itself. Each issue contains a balance of exclusive interviews, the latest portfolio collections, product launches, reviews, news and insightful articles focussing on education, innovative step-by-step guides, informative business pieces and wider lifestyle features.

Our desire to entertain as much as inform and educate is what differentiates our magazine. We continuously strive to create original and thought-provoking content that tackles a greater range of topics – barbers have a broader range of interests than just barbering.
