How do I know the barber is good before I book them?

Every barber profile on theCut is built to help you make a confident decision before you commit. Here's what you can review before booking:

  • Portfolio photos — real photos of past cuts so you can see the barber's actual work, not just a description of it

How do I book my appointment with a barber?

Booking on theCut takes just a few steps:

  1. Search for barbers near you
  2. Browse profiles, photos, and services
  3. Select the service you want
  4. Pick an available date and time
  5. Confirm your appointment

No need to text or call — everything happens directly through the app or website. Your barber gets notified instantly, and you'll receive a confirmation right away. Book your next haircut on theCut

How do I tell the barber what I want my haircut to look like?

The clearest way to communicate your haircut is by combining a few approaches:

  • Show reference photos — a picture is worth a thousand words, and most barbers prefer them
  • Be specific about the details — fade level, length on top, beard shape, whether you want a taper or a hard part
  • Message the barber beforehand — theCut's in-app messaging lets you connect with your barber before the appointment so you're both aligned before the cut

The best results happen when client and barber are on the same page before the clippers come out. Don't hesitate to speak up — a good barber always wants to know what you're looking for. Find your new barber

What’s a good tip for a haircut?

A standard tip for a haircut is typically 15–25% of the service cost. On a $30 cut, that works out to around $5–$8. If your barber went above and beyond, squeezed you in last minute, or consistently delivers great results, tipping on the higher end is a well-deserved gesture. theCut supports digital tipping directly at checkout, making it easy to show appreciation without needing cash. Ultimately, the choice is yours — but it's always appreciated. Book your next haircut on theCut.

How do I get notified about my appointment?

theCut keeps you informed at every stage of your appointment. Once you book, you'll receive an instant confirmation. As your appointment gets closer, you'll get reminders via push notification, email, or text so it stays top of mind. You'll also receive status updates if anything changes on the barber's end. The goal is simple: you should never have to wonder about your appointment — theCut handles the communication automatically.

What payment options are available on theCut?

theCut supports a range of payment methods so checkout is never a hassle. Depending on what your barber accepts, you can pay with:

  • Credit & debit cards
  • Apple Pay
  • Google Pay
  • Cash App Pay
  • Apple Tap to Pay
  • In-app mobile pay
  • Cash or in-shop payments

You'll always see your barber's accepted payment methods before booking or checkout — no surprises. Book with a barber on theCut
