Barbering has always been more than a hustle. It’s been a lifeline, a culture, and a place where our people come together, sharpen one another, and pass down wisdom from the chair to the community. But in today’s industry, the same culture Black barbers built is being used, celebrated, and monetized—while too often, we’re left out of the ownership and the opportunities.
The Fade From Black Barber Expo is our answer. This isn’t just another barber battle or product showcase. This is a movement designed to reclaim our place in the industry, highlight the pioneers who built this craft, and create new opportunities for the next generation of barbers.
Your donation helps us secure venues, host workshops on financial growth, hire Black educators, professional development, and build a platform where Black barbers are not just participants, but leaders.
When you donate, you’re not just funding an event—you’re investing in a legacy and movement that will impact thousands of barbers and their communities for years to come.
