Ive been going to the same barbershop for around 5 years it is family owned the dad cuts for his older crowd mom does wax and tints and 3 brothers are barbers and they have a lesbian sister which cleans and charges, the vibe is really nice and welcoming.. after like 2 years i finally came out to them cause i liked his vibe more very chill and non threatening i guess .. whats funny is that i usually go drinking with him but i get my haircut and beard with his brother , my friend is married to a woman and has a family , hes tried to hook me up with some of his gay friends and i feel hes more open about cause of his sister

I used to go to a barber who only had one chair, so it was him and the client on someone waiting in the shop. Very low key environnent. I usually went in the morning, that way I could hop in the chair and not wait. The barber was a bit older, fit, with a rockin ass and nice bulge. He was very friendly and was constantly pressing his bulge against my arm. The longer I went to him the longer he would rub up against my arm even when he wasn't actually cutting my hair. I would get quite excited but nervous. On one of the ladt visits he informed me he was closing the shop and moving to another city, so I took the opportunity to reach out and feel his package. He just stood there really close and let me have a good feel as he got hard. As my luck would be, another client came in. i saw him one other time with a repeat of the same only to be interupted. Good memory for me.

My barbershop is full of homophobic Jamaican barbers and their friends hanging out , when it’s empty it’s an ok experience , but when it busier (which I avoid) it’s awkward. All they talk about is fucking women , football and gaybash.
Once quite a few years ago they were talking about a video that was going around showing all
The ‘undercover gay men’ in the area.

that being said , my old barber , I use to think he was gay , he use to rub his dick against my knee so much ,he left tho . Then I saw him on Grindr about a month after that ! . But I never hit him up , think he’s now left the country .
I have a str8 best friend who goes to a different barbershop and apparently his is nothing like mine . His barbers aren’t Jamaican though .

Don't let that talk fool you man. The ones that protest loudly are generally the ones with a "secret life" and probably mess around with dudes/trans.
There's a Jamaican barbershop near me, and they guys do the same, talk smack and gay bash. Turns out the owner, an older guy, likes the young boys. But nobody says anything. Disgusting

I think a lot of guys in the barbershop are closeted. All you have to do is sit back and listen/watch. They will give themselves away. At my barbershop, a lot of the customers that come in have done time, so I'm sure a bunch of them have dabbled in ass while incarcerated. One guy that comes into my shop, I saw his profile on a gay website a long time ago. I was shocked, because I didn't think he messed with guys, but I never approached him. It was possible that someone used his pics, but I believe it was him. My barbershop has a LOT of mirrors, and you can see different angles. I like to watch the guys checking out the other guys on the low.

I will say this much also, what dude comes into an all-male environment with the tightest fucking clothes possible? I notice that with the Dominican barbershops in my neighborhood, and among the younger guys that come into my barbershop. I have the type of barber (Jamaican) who calls them on that. He'd say..."why you wearing that tight ass shirt/pants/shorts and ain't no girls up in here?! Who you trying to impress?" LOL
Got any more stories on the Dominican barbers? I got a barber who wears gray sweatpants and keeps leaning into my hand at the end of the armrest. Not sure how to tell if he'd be okay with me touching it or not. How would you tell? In my last visit, it looked like he wasn't wearing any underwear and you could clearly see the outline of his bugle.

I wear my hair short--always have since I grew up on a swim team. Plus I don't have the patience to style my hair and make it a work of art. So, I am just fine in barbershops. In fact, in a town I visited where my mom lives, during Christmas week a couple years ago, I wound up returning to the barber shop at closing time (mom and sis thought I had gone to the gym) and and wound up getting fucked and, while kneeling on his barber chair, fisted by the bear built barber with nice fat hands. After he had used me good and milked my own fat cock for a load, I left to meet up with my mom and sister to see a movie. They thought I was at the gym, yet there I was, with a loose freshly used asshole watching Mary Poppins Returns while they had no idea I had just been enjoying male pleasure with the local barber in his place of business.

If he keeps leaning on your hands, that's saying something. A lot of barbers will go out of their way to keep their bulge from touching your arm/hand. I used to go to this one barber that did that a lot, it turned me on but made me uncomfortable as hell too. I didn't know if he was sincere or trying to out someone. I stopped going to him. Lol

I feel the need of having only men spaces, masculinity is not a bad thing, some people try to demonize men or straight behavior but sometime they are better then many gays and women around ... there are places only for women and men are not allowed, beauty salon, aesthetic clinics, gyms... why shouldn't men have their own space too? some people see this as sexist, I see this as people sharing space with equals..

Man, the barbershop is a den of masculine femininity. They do the same shyt as women in beauty parlors, sometimes worse.
Gossip, dress like thots, etc...all under the guise of "no homo" :joy:

I don't care what they do, I say men can have their own places too..I ve read a comment of a woman once saying they should allow women to enter gay sauna, bathhouses saying it's sexist, c'mon...they should find their own places..or when they try to enter only men strip clubs, when they have their own strip clubs which men cannot enter..

Masculinity is an invention and inauthentic performativeness. It's crap and men get a SLIGHTLY better deal but it's all bad, having a male space isn't the same as masculinity

it's funny you try to ban masculinity, but most gays prefer the masculine type of guys, as you can see everywhere, even here you can find people saying I like manly men...masculinity is not bad, the bad use of it is bad..that's when it becomes toxic..

My experiences in the barbershop were nearly always great because about 95% of the time I could hang with the other men in a good conversation. Being a country boy who has been told many times I'd never be perceived as gay made things better, I guess. I saw many a HOT man in the barbershop. Once years ago my barber, for some reason, told me a story about being in the hospital and having to have a catheter inserted in his penis. At first it didn't turn me on but the more I thought about it, it did. That is what led me to buying a set of urethral sounds. Many guys I talked with about the subject of cock sounding were grossed out, but to me the though of something large enough, lubed and smooth being inserted deep inside of my penis was strongly arousing. There was some other story from my barber about some guy he mentioned "stroking his penis." I wish I could remember how the subject that led him to mention stroking was brought up. I'm thinking it might have been a story about some guy who was caught stroking his penis in a porn theater or something..

Anyway, it was hot. Not to mention getting hard in the barber's chair many times while he was cutting my hair, especially when I started getting a buzz cut or high and tight. I remember a man I used to work with joking one day about having to let a woman cut his hair because he said when someone played with his hair it was a direct hook up to his dick. True!

When I went to college, I started going to a small barbershop near the campus. It was run by an older guy. I always had a great haircut and the price was very reasonable. He also sold hair care products super cheap. (This was the 80's, hair gel was the big thing.) The best part was the barber's 2 sons also cut hair there. They were in their 20's or 30's and both were really good looking. Dark hair with dark brown eyes and the biggest smiles all the time. The one seemed to be a little more touchy feely than the other.

For me, it is not about barber shop versus hair stylist. It is about the atmosphere that the owner creates for his or her clientele. Are all people made to feel welcome, whether a very workaday person or an eccentric one?

I would never go to a place, where slurs are commonplace. That kind of language would hurt people, whom I consider to be good friends.

We have only patronized places, where all are welcome.

All are welcome in my barbershop, but expect to hear slurs and other foul language. It's a barbershop.

I’m a black gay man and black barbershops could be intimidating but I did grow up going to one. In NY I went to Dominican shops, and in LA, the Mexican guy who cuts my hair (he has many celebrity clients) is straight with kids and I tell him all about my gay shit and he tells me all about his straight shit.
