Why Barbers Quit: Part 3
How NAOB Can Help Keep You In Love With & Inspired By Barbering
If you’ve read out past two blog posts on this subject, you probably already get the gist of what we’ve been trying to say. If not, our Why Barbers Give Up in the First 3 Years Series has covered a myriad of issues.
We’ve been diving into the depths of the realities of why barbers end up quitting after so few years in the industry. We’ve talked about what mistakes they make in their first three years, what extinguishes their passion, and what can make them lose their fire for their craft.
We’ve discussed all of these things in an attempt to shine a light on how you can avoid losing that valuable spark for your profession.
Now, we’re taking it a step further. This blog post is all about the resources we’ve put together to provide you with the support, inspiration, professional coverage, and help that we believe can make a difference in your barbering experience.
Whether you’re a professional or a total newbie, we think our resources can help—check out our E-books and more linked below to get a better idea of how we aim to keep you passionate, interested, and dedicated to the barbering game!
Social E-Book
If you don’t know this already, you’re about to get a ton of knowledge thrown your way, so hold onto your shears and clippers. We’ve carefully constructed and curated a must-have resource for the modern-day century that your industry thrives in—social media marketing skills.
Why?
Because we get it. It’s one thing to be a talented, skilled, and professional barber. It’s one thing to be hugely successful within your little niche. It’s one thing to be the go-to barber in the neighborhood. But none of those things will ever help you grow your business if you’re not getting the word out about yourself—and in our technologically-driven society, that means knowing and understanding how social media works.
And you know what? We know that’s not always second nature for everyone. It takes trial, error, and lots of effort—we did the hard stuff for you and put together a helpful guide to get your social stuff off the ground and soaring!

Liability Insurance
Listen, nothing—and we mean nothing—can totally take the air out of your dream and snuff out your passion like someone suing you for something (especially if it’s not really your fault). Listen, you take pride in providing amazing service—you take pride in making your clients look good, feel good, and crave coming back to you. That’s all you should be focusing on—the rest of the ugly stuff, that should be left to us.
That includes barber liability insurance.
You might be thinking, “do I really need liability insurance as a barber?”
The short answer: absolutely.
Sure, you might think we’re being biased (we’re selling you on the insurance after all, aren’t we?), but truthfully, barbers need insurance.
You know how skilled your hands are? They’re talented, but not perfect. Those tools you’re using to create works of art could also accidentally hurt your client—and in that event, you must be covered. Accidents happen, and with the sharp and effective tools you’re using, it pays to have insurance! Check out more information here on NAOB’s liability insurance.
