For barbershops

Walk-ins welcome. Now everyone knows it.

Today's wait, new barbers and fresh cuts, in a straight-talking voice.

A week of posts

Written for barbershops, in your voice.

Each one starts as a sentence or two from you. Townlight adds the details from your own records and keeps to the rules your kind of business needs. These are examples; yours come from your real details.

    The guys who've sat in your chair for years will leave a review if someone asks. Townlight asks for you.

For a quiet week

Never stuck for something to say.

  • Fresh cut of the week (with the client's OK)
  • Meet the barber and their signature cut
  • Walk-in hours this week
  • How to keep a fade sharp between visits
  • The regular who's been coming for years

Dates barbershops plan around

Ready about three weeks ahead.

  • May 15Graduation seasonGraduation party orders or bookings
  • Jul 24International Self-Care DayA self-care service or package
  • Aug 15Back-to-school seasonBack-to-school special

What it's careful about for barbershops

On top of the rule for everyone: never invent a price, a review or a claim your records don't back up.

  • Only show a client's cut when the business says the client agreed.

See it with your own business.

Start the free trial with “Barbershop” already picked, add your details and a few photos, and see your first week of posts the same afternoon. Nothing goes out until you say yes.
