Scout’s Barbershop is a locally-owned barbershop for men and women of all ages. Located in every Nashville neighborhood, you never have to leave your ‘hood' to get a great haircut with a unique experience! At Scout’s, we believe that quality haircuts should come with free beer and good vibes; not attitude.Fresh cuts, great styles at an affordable price, but most importantly a place where experience comes first! A place where you and your hair can be yourself!
"We are proud to be participating in Nashville Fashion Week for the third consecutive year. Scout's is thrilled to be part of the NFW Men's Style event, that brings together a unique group of creatives from all over the city." - Brooke Allison, Scout's Barbershop
