Hey All! Just a friendly reminder that tomorrow, October 15th, is the Baltimore marathon. Here is the map to help you navigate the city a bit better 😁. Happy Friday!

Also, have you checked out our new website? This is where you can make appointments! Let us know in the comments what you think!
www.beatnikbarbers.com

Hey all! Today we are working on the updates for the new booking system and the website, meaning you won’t be able to make any appointments today. Some of you may have already received text messages from our new booking system (this is just us transferring our book over). We will be launching our new website and booking system tomorrow morning. This new system is designed to be more user friendly for all of us including: Estimated wait times for walk ins, text messages letting you know when you are next in line, and no more apps to download or usernames and passwords for making appointments. Tomorrow,, you will be able to go to our website, click “Book Appointment”(example below) and type in your name, number, the service/barber you want and then choose from the availability.
Thank you for your continued support.

We will be closing this evening, Thursday, September 29, at 6:30 for a shop meeting and education on our new booking system (more details coming soon).

We apologize for any inconvenience. Thank you for your support.

BIG CHANGES COMING WITH OUR BOOKING SYSTEM!! Soon, we will no longer be using Vagaro. We will be switching to a new booking system that was created right here in Baltimore!
What does this mean for you?
1. No more user name and passwords
2. Downloading an app is a thing of the past
3. We will now have wait times for walkins available for you to see on our check in tablet at the front of the shop
4. Name and number is the only thing you need to make an appointment directly from our website or google

We truly believe this change will be in the best interest of our customers. We will make the announcement when things have officially switched. Existing appointments will not be affected.

Thank you for your patience while we transition to a better booking experience.

This Saturday, August 27, 2022, we will be closing at 2pm to attend the wedding of one of our favorite barbers here at Beatnik, Jen! Congratulations Jen!!!

*** Hey Everyone ***
This week, August 16th-19th, we will NOT be accepting walkins after 6pm due to a temporary staff shortage. (Just vacation, everyone is still with us 😎). We apologize for any inconvenience. We will go back to normal business hours next week. Thank you!

It was today, August 1, 2005 that we were established, and today, August 1, 2016 that I took over. From the bottom of my heart, I thank each one of you. The support I’ve been given the last 10 years of employment and the last 6 years of ownership, has made me overwhelmed with gratitude. Cheers to 17 years 🥂

Hard to believe it’s been two years already since we moved locations. We are so very grateful for each and every one of you that have been so supportive and so patient. From the bottom of our hearts, we thank you.

Are you a reliable, talented barber or cosmetologist? We are looking for you!
Flexible hours, fun work environment, and awesome customers! Send us a message - we would love to talk to you!
