Rules and Guidelines
To participate in the Barber Battle, you must be a licensed barber or a student barber, regardless of your years of experience. Competitors are responsible for bringing their own models, tools, and supplies. It is crucial to be present and punctual for the preparation and commencement of the battles. Models must have at least 2-3 inches of hair before the cut begins. Once the battle starts, it cannot be interrupted unless for an emergency situation.
Enhancements, such as hair products or accessories, are permitted but will be closely evaluated by the judges. The emphasis is on the skill and ability of the barber, and the enhancements should enhance the quality of the cut rather than mask any flaws. Models should arrive with the desired hairstyle canvas, as pre-cutting hair during the pre-preparation time is not allowed. This time will be utilized for preparing tools, setting up, capping and covering the model, wetting and sectioning the hair, and other necessary pre-cutting steps.
Choosing models wisely is crucial, as all factors will be taken into consideration during the scoring process. The overall transformation and the barber's ability to bring out the best in their model will play a significant role in the evaluation. Competitors can use hot tools if the venue provides them adequately. It is essential to stop cutting when the competition officially ends.
Don't miss the opportunity to be part of the thrilling Knotty-N-Natural Barber Battle, where barbers will demonstrate their skills, creativity, and passion for hair artistry. Whether you are a student or a seasoned professional, this competition will push you to showcase your talent in various categories and leave a lasting impression.
