Heads up, drivers: the entire alley behind Big Bro's - including our three parking spots - will be fully closed over the next week! There is still free street parking in the area around us, including just across the alley from us along Broadway.

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:

It's been tough to keep up with our loan payments after the renovations, so we're bringing back Patreon videos: this time, we're making content specifically for allies!

Eek - don’t come in!
Only a couple of our stylists have been taken out by Covid this week, but unfortunately, that is our entire Wednesday crew! If you’d like to stop by to take a look at our products: today ain’t the day, I’m afraid.
We’ll see you soon! So soon!!

Our little Trans Pride history project has been growing: we're working on a gallery around the shop that showcases spaces built for or claimed by transgender & gender-nonconforming people throughout history!
Only a few are featured here - you'll just have to visit Big Bro's to see them all! 😉

Today we had our youngest client to date!

Hi, gay! Happy Pride Month!
We always get busier during the summer at Big Bro's, but we've got more stylists this year and we're ready to give more gay haircuts than ever before! We still often have walk-in or day-of availability during weekday afternoons.
Book yourself in at BigBrosBarbershop.com!

If you’re planning to come by for a haircut this weekend: tomorrow’s the day to do it! We also still have two spots left on Sunday.

Binders are back in stock!!
The website has been giving us trouble with making the Supplex binders available for online purchase, but we’re working to fix the issue ASAP. All other binders are ready for purchase at BigBrosBarbershop.com/shop!
May 27, 2025 at 6:02 PM
(1/3) Don't be alarmed: we're trying out a new menu of items! A few things have been rephrased, a few things have been added, and a few things have been adjusted. Plus: combined appointment options to simplify the booking and pricing on your end!

Oops – we’re sold out of binding tape, and almost fully sold out of binders! Our binder restock is currently in the mail on its way to the shop, and the tape isn’t far behind. Please message us at BigBrosBarbershop.com/contact if you would like a notification email when the stock returns!

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!
