Our weekends always fill up a few days in advance over the summer, but things always slow down around here once the gloomy weather kicks in! If you were thinking about swinging by for a last-min cut this weekend, we have several gaps in our bookings available for you to snag!

To help Big Bro's through tricky financial times, our in-house artists, Zed & Alex, have very sweetly donated the sale of their most trans-coloured art to the shop. 💖 If you're looking for ways to support the shop beyond haircuts, consider these goodies, or our Patreon:

If you’re taking a rideshare car to Big Bro’s: make sure you’re headed to our location at 2375 E Broadway! We’ve updated our listing on Google Maps and Apple Maps, and we’ve written into customer support for both companies, but somehow that’s all done very little to help. So be sure to double check!

Though keeping up with our new location itself has been going great, it’s been a real financial struggle trying to recoup the costs of the renovation and our delayed reopening! In an effort to get back on our feet, haircut costs will be going up $5 at the start of March. Thanks for understanding!!

The past few months have been a blur at Big Bro’s - it’s wild to think about how much the shop has changed since we moved in just a few months ago! The business turns 10 years old this fall, and we’re ready to kick off our second decade in style!
