What Our Students Are Saying

“I had researched other barber schools before checking out this one. As soon as I walked in, I felt like I was at home. I’m currently in my 5th week of barber school and I have definitely learned a lot since I started. I would 100% recommend this school to anyone who is interested.”

Camille Bentinck

“Before I discovered Westchester Barber Academy, I was researching for barber schools in the Bronx. I speak from the heart when I say there is no other school like this one. It’s a family barber school. welcoming and loving. The instructors are really cool and make an environment where is easy to ask questions of what’s right or wrong. If you're in search of a good school to learn how to be a master barber, this is the place to go. Ages do not matter, only positive energy.”

Oli Rev

“I found about the Academy on the Today Show 3rd Hour and had to try it out. Crystal was so courteous and made my appointment. The owner, Charnay Phaire, gave me a personal tour of the facility, which was fabulous. My barber, Brandon, gave me an AMAZING haircut and facial. I have told so many people about my experience and they have vowed to go. Thank you all for making me feel so special!!!”
