This is a creative fantasy Realm of mythic grooming. Followers and chair fillers need not apply.</font><br /><font size="2">So whether a barber or support staff around these parts, Gaardians need to be fast and fluid, quick witted and quick on their feet. Their minds must be able to stretch far beyond the walls.</font><br /><br /><br /><font size="2">This job is not completing assigned tasks, it is finding problems and pain points, finding solutions, and implementing the crap out of them. It&rsquo;s knowing what people need before they do and delivering it to them more fervently than they ever thought possible.</font><br /><font size="2">We are proud to have built a diverse shop with all sorts of people, but the thing that every one of them have in common is an insatiable passion and drive to make things better, whether that be the hair, the products, the experience, or anything in between. Particularly if done in a manner that is almost irresponsibly fun.</font><br /><br /><br />so let us ask, do any of these sound like you?<ul style="color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.8)"><li><font size="2">Are you an exceptionally obsessive barber/professional looking for&nbsp;<a href="https://youtu.be/aojPOEsw0Uw">a shop that feels like home</a>/the set of a sitcom, with coworkers that feel like family?</font></li><li><font size="2">Do you like&nbsp;<a href="https://youtu.be/bJI6SoxfKvQ">a city vibe</a>, but wish there were less people, noise and weird smells?</font></li><li><font size="2">Do you have&nbsp;<a href="https://youtu.be/NW47sNzIXzk">nearly no sense of shame</a>?</font></li><li><font size="2">Are you&nbsp;<a href="https://youtu.be/lOnLVrAXuWg">nerdy as fuck</a>?</font></li></ul> <font size="2">Then friend, you belong here.<br />&#8203;</font><br /><strong><font size="5">Still into it? here&rsquo;s the next step.</font></strong><br /><font size="2">We don&rsquo;t have a standard job application because the ability to put together a cover letter that makes us sit up and pay attention is a massive part of the job interview, particularly for support staff that are not barbers. Besides the fun stuff, make sure to include all the information we need about your work background/skill set in your resume.</font><br /><br /><font size="2">So, in summary, send both your resume and cover letter to&nbsp;info@hombrebarbers.com or click the button below, along with links to any of your professional social profiles, and we will get back at you promptly with all of the juicy details.</font></div>  <div style="text-align:center;"><div style="height: 10px; overflow: hidden;"></div> <a class="wsite-button wsite-button-large wsite-button-highlight" href="mailto:info@hombrebarbers.com" > <span class="wsite-button-inner">Email</span> </a> <div style="height: 10px; overflow: hidden;"></div></div>]]></content:encoded></item><item><title><![CDATA[Big News / New Appointment Policies]]></title><link><![CDATA[https://www.hombrebarbers.com/updates/big-news-new-appointment-policies]]></link><comments><![CDATA[https://www.hombrebarbers.com/updates/big-news-new-appointment-policies#comments]]></comments><pubDate>Thu, 11 Jun 2020 19:33:43 GMT</pubDate><category><![CDATA[Uncategorized]]></category><guid isPermaLink="false">https://www.hombrebarbers.com/updates/big-news-new-appointment-policies</guid><description><![CDATA[Serving the public does have its problems, miscommunication, lack of understanding and high expectations from customers about what we can do with their hair.

But we always sort it out.&nbsp;<br /><span style="color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.8)">That is not to say there haven&rsquo;t been a few hiccups. They have happened, and they have been rapidly handled. But there is this one sticking point that we as a shop have to address in a formal manner.</span></div>  <div><div class="wsite-image wsite-image-border-none " style="padding-top:10px;padding-bottom:10px;margin-left:0;margin-right:0;text-align:center"> <a> <img src="https://www.hombrebarbers.com/uploads/3/9/1/2/39128723/published/dsc9110hdr.jpg?1591905163" alt="Picture" style="width:574;max-width:100%" /> </a> <div style="display:block;font-size:90%"></div> </div></div>  <div class="paragraph" style="text-align:center;"><strong><font color="#515151" size="5">&#8203;late arrivals and no shows</font></strong></div>  <div class="paragraph"><font size="2">We have invested in&nbsp;one of the most extensive and powerful POS/CRM/appointment scheduling services on the planet. With an app and everything. All for you guys.</font><br /><br /><font size="2">&#8203;We understand that everyone leads busy lives and that things come up, traffic happens. We as a shop lock in our schedules twenty nine days in advance to make sure we can accommodate our beloved clients on their schedule.</font><br /><br /><font size="2">All we ask for in return is for our clients to do their best to plan for these inevitable hiccups (like, if you have a 5:30 appointment, plan for traffic). What we can no longer ask is for that lost appointment (and subsequent lost income) to fall so squarely on the shoulders of our barbers.</font></div>  <div><div class="wsite-image wsite-image-border-medium " style="padding-top:5px;padding-bottom:10px;margin-left:0px;margin-right:10px;text-align:left"> <a> <img src="https://www.hombrebarbers.com/uploads/3/9/1/2/39128723/dsc9237bw_orig.jpg" alt="Picture" style="width:auto;max-width:100%" /> </a> <div style="display:block;font-size:90%"></div> </div></div>  <div class="paragraph">&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; This is the important part&nbsp;<br /><font size="2">From the beginning , we will be&nbsp;charging 50% of a scheduled service cost in cases of no shows, late cancels (less than 12 hours notice), and terminal lateness (when a client arrives late enough for their appointment that we cannot complete said appointment) in order to pay our barbers for&nbsp;that now-empty time slot.</font><br /><br /><font size="2">Luckily, the vast majority of our clients are on time.</font><br /><br /><font size="2">Still, we understand that some may not love these new policies. But neither do we love having hours worth of appointments in a single day cancel without enough time to fill them, nor pushing other clients (who were on time) back due to the tardiness of others. And we will never, ever rush a service.</font><br /><br />We don't want to be dicks about this but we must look after our business.</div>]]></content:encoded></item><item><title><![CDATA[Covid-19 Outbreak Announcement]]></title><link><![CDATA[https://www.hombrebarbers.com/updates/covid-19-outbreak-announcement]]></link><comments><![CDATA[https://www.hombrebarbers.com/updates/covid-19-outbreak-announcement#comments]]></comments><pubDate>Mon, 04 May 2020 17:11:09 GMT</pubDate><category><![CDATA[Uncategorized]]></category><guid isPermaLink="false">https://www.hombrebarbers.com/updates/covid-19-outbreak-announcement</guid><description><![CDATA[DUE TO THE CURRENT COVID-19 SITUATION, IN THE INTEREST&nbsp;SAFETY, OF STAFF AND CUSTOMERs , THE BARBERSHOP WILL BE CLOSED UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE.WHEN WE DO RE-OPEN IT WILL BE STRICTLYBY APPOINTMENT ONLYTO REDUCE THE NUMBER OF PEOPLE IN THE SHOP AT ONE TIME AS WE Wish TO ADHERE TO THE SOCIAL DISTANCING GUIDELINES&nbsp;We will open we RECEIVE&nbsp;instruction that we can reopen.Only then will the link for the appointments open and you can make a booking via the app or this pageStay safe&nbsp; &nbsp [...] ]]></description><content:encoded><![CDATA[<h2 class="wsite-content-title" style="text-align:center;"><span><span><span><font color="#000000">DUE TO THE CURRENT </font><font color="#ee1b1b">COVID-19 </font><font color="#000000">SITUATION, IN THE INTEREST&nbsp;</font></span></span></span><font color="#000000">SAFETY,</font><span><span><span><font color="#000000"> OF STAFF AND CUSTOMERs , THE BARBERSHOP WILL BE CLOSED UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE.</font></span></span></span><br /><span><span><span><font color="#000000">WHEN WE DO RE-OPEN IT WILL BE STRICTLY</font><br /><span style="font-weight:bold"><font color="#e31515">BY APPOINTMENT ONLY</font></span></span></span></span><br /><span><span><span><font color="#000000">TO REDUCE THE NUMBER OF PEOPLE IN THE SHOP AT ONE TIME AS WE Wish TO ADHERE TO THE SOCIAL DISTANCING GUIDELINES&nbsp;</font><br /><font color="#000000">We will open we RECEIVE&nbsp;instruction that we can reopen.</font><br /><font color="#000000">Only then will the link for the appointments open and you can make a booking via the app or this page</font><br /><br /><font color="#5040ae">Stay safe&nbsp; &nbsp;stay home<br />&#8203;<br />protect the NHS</font></span></span></span></h2>]]></content:encoded></item></channel></rss>
