About Barber Kent

How I Got Started

As a hobby, I began cutting hair at my shop in the kitchen of my home in southern Indiana in 1990 on a step stool with one clipper, a part of a sheet for a cape, a hand mirror, and one or two customers a month. The first 3 years only saw a total of 43 customers. Now, I have a real barber chair, 8 clippers, 3 capes, a large mirror mounted on the wall, various other equipment and over 100 customers a month. The only thing that has not changed is that it's still the kitchen!

The hobby has taken on a life of its own!

Some tools of my trade.

I have an nine-year old dog named Kc.  She is a black lab-retriever mix.

My hobbies include playing classical music on my church's grand piano and byke ryding. Most days, I ryde 15 miles but on Fridays and Saturdays ryde more. So far in 2007, just over 900 miles have been accumulated.

The piano is a Yamaha Baby Grande.

The byke is a 1981 Nishiki with over 60,000 miles.

Barber Kent's Definition of Haircut Terms
Because haircut terms vary from area to area, barber to barber, here are a few of my definitions:
Burr - #3 (3/8 inch) to #2 (1/4 inch).
Buzz - #1.5 (3/16 inch) to #.5 (1/16 inch).
Clipper Shaved (CS) - clipper with no guard (000 to 00000)
Crewcut - rounded with the hair spiked or standing and at least #4 (1/2 inch) or longer.
Shaved (RS) - lathered and shaved with safety or straight razor.
