The Public Barber

Joining The Public Barber means becoming part of a team that values people as much as the craft. As a gay-owned shop rooted in inclusivity and human connection, we foster a workplace where dignity, respect, and authenticity are non-negotiable. You'll work in a thoughtfully designed, welcoming environment in Chicago's Uptown neighborhood, serving a diverse and loyal clientele. Our barbers are short hair specialists, allowing you to sharpen your expertise in precision cuts, fades, beard trims, and hot lather shaves. If you're passionate about your craft and believe a barbershop can be a true community hub, The Public Barber is the place to grow — professionally and personally.
