Who writes this and why
Philipp — a barber in Novi Sad. These are not rewrites of articles from the internet: they are the things that have to be explained in the chair three times a week — how a first visit goes, what a fade actually changes compared with a classic cut, and what a beard does between appointments.
How to use this section
Each guide is one problem and a few minutes of reading. Prices and durations quoted inside come from the shop's pricelist; if anything disagrees, the prices page is the current one. Every guide exists in Serbian, English and Russian.
Where to start if it is your first visit
With the first-visit guide: what happens in the chair minute by minute, how long a cut takes (60 minutes at 1500 RSD), what to say about length and why writing ahead helps. Then fade versus classic — not two names for one haircut but two different demands on length and on how often you come back. The beard has its own piece: what to do between cuts so the shape holds, and when a 500 RSD / 15 minute trim is enough instead of an 800 RSD / 40 minute shaping.
Frequently asked
- Are the guides translated one to one?
- Yes. All three exist in Serbian, English and Russian, and the language switcher in the header keeps you on the same text instead of sending you to the home page.
- Are the prices in the guides current?
- As a reference, yes. The real pricelist with the duration of each service is on the prices page, and that page wins if the two ever disagree.
