How Long Does a Haircut Take? Every Service, Timed

A men's haircut at my shop takes 40 min for the Essential Haircut, 45 min for the Signature Cut and 50 min for the Luxury Grooming Experience. Those are the times Booksy holds, and they cover the whole visit, from sitting down to the finished style.

Below is every service on my menu with its length, what fills that time, and how to plan your day around it.

01 / HAIRCUTS

The three cuts.

Same cut, more around it.

Essential Haircut$50 · 40 min+

The haircut shaped to your style and head, a straight razor along the neck and a finished style. Nearly all of the time goes into the cut and getting the blend clean.

Book this service
Signature Cut$65 · 45 min+

The same cut plus a beard trim or line-up, a hot towel finish and straight razor detailing. The extra minutes belong to the beard and the towel.

Book this service
Luxury Grooming Experience$80 · 50 min+

A consultation first, then the cut, beard sculpt, wash and scalp massage, facial steam, dual hot towels, razor detailing, a basic design, ear and nose waxing, styling and fragrance. A lot fits in, so book it when you aren't in a hurry.

02 / SHAVES AND FACIALS

Shaves and facials.

Hot towels set the pace.

Straight Razor Beard Shave$40 · 40 min+

A traditional wet shave: hot towels to soften the beard, shaving cream, the straight razor and an aftershave. The towels are part of the time, not a wait before it.

Book this service
Head & Beard Shave$80 · 1 hr+

Head and beard both shaved smooth, with hot towels and an aftershave balm. Two full shaves in one sitting, which makes it the longest shave on the menu.

Book this service
Express Facial$30 · 30 min+

Facial massage, warm steam, a deep cleanse, gentle exfoliation and a hydrating moisturizer. The shortest appointment I have.

Book this service
Deluxe Facial$40 · 40 min+

Massage, steam, exfoliation and moisturizer, plus advanced skin treatments and an anti-aging serum.

Book this service
03 / THE LONG ONES

Braids, perm and color.

Clear a morning or an afternoon.

BraidsVaries · 2 hr+

Every set is personalized and the price varies with the style. Each row is parted and braided by hand, so the clock follows the number and size of the rows.

Book this service
Perm$95 · 90 min+

Rods, waving solution, neutralizer and a rinse, in that order. A perm can't stop halfway, so the whole block needs to be free.

Book this service
Color Transformation$120 · 4 hr+

Bleaching and toning to reach the shade you want. It's the longest appointment on my menu, so plan the rest of the day around it.

Book this service
04 / WHY IT'S FIXED

The slot is yours.

Booksy holds the full time.

The times above are what Booksy reserves, so the slot is yours from start to finish. Thick hair, a big change in length or a detailed fade can use more of it; a cleanup of a cut you already wear uses less.

Add-ons ride along with the booking: a hair design, a wash and scalp massage, eyebrows, nose and ear waxing or a fragrance finish. If you plan to add several, text me so we aren't rushing the end.

05 / PLAN AROUND IT

Fit it into your day.

A few practical notes.

On a lunch break, the Essential or the Signature is the easier fit. Open times show on Booksy, so pick one that leaves room to get back.

Saturday runs 8:00 AM to 2:00 PM. For one of the long services on a Saturday, an early start gets you out with the afternoon still yours.

For braids, a perm or a color, eat beforehand and charge your phone. You'll be in the chair a while, and it goes easier when you aren't hungry.

Running late eats into your own slot, because the next appointment starts when it starts. Text me at (575) 706-3095 if you're held up.

Paying takes a minute at the end: cash, card, Zelle or Cash App, after the service.
