Cotter Barber Competitors

Fellow Barber is committed to offering a hassle-free, high quality experience, without the pretensions of a salon. Often credited for the revival of time-honored barbershop traditions, Fellow Barber's expertly trained barbers provide classic men’s cuts and straight-razor shaves to a discerning clientele. Founder Sam Buffa was born in Kings Mountain, CA, where he spent his formative years racing motorcycles. At 17, Buffa became the youngest person on the U.S. off-road team. The idea of opening a classic barbershop occurred to him while competing abroad. “The barbershop was where men would discuss sports, politics, and culture while getting a haircut or shave,” Buffa recalls. “And we want each of our locations to represent that same kind of engaging atmosphere.” Founded in 2006 in the Lower East Side of New York, Fellow Barber now has shops in New York and San Francisco and an award-winning line of men's grooming products.

It used to be that the barbershop wasn’t just a place to get a haircut or shave; it was the hub of the community – where people got together to bond, socialize and exchange ideas. With the goal of bringing this camaraderie back in style, Blind Barber, a barbershop and parlor with locations in Chicago, New York City, Los Angeles and Miami has created a concept that goes well beyond cuts, shaves and cocktails. By cultivating a men’s grooming line, voice and destinations, Blind Barber has expanded into all realms of the modern man: Grooming, Fashion, Music, Lifestyle, and more.
