34 YEARS PROFESSIONAL BARBER 

Hello, my name is Conell Jonson, CEO of Barbers For Life LLC. I have been a master Barber for over 30 years, and an owner / operator for over 20 years. I fell in love with Barbering in the Marine Corp, when it allowed me opportunities to get out of some assignments, before big Marine Corps events. That allowed my passion and artistry for cutting hair to grow because I always had a variety of different textures and styles of hair to cut.

During the early 90’s, my twin brother and I would travel to Philadelphia, Pa to the annual “Greek’s Cookout In The Park”.  Each year I was amazed by the haircuts and the artistry of the different styles. I saw a lot of creative cuts, and some with the same cuts, but the styles indicated to me which state it originated from. The Philly cuts for me represented black power in the haircut styles, were as Atlanta haircuts come with a softer look. North Carolina has a vibe of down in the bio, country flair to its haircuts. These were only my opinions in describing the differences in haircuts styles.

​

The vision I saw in the park in Philly is what Barbers For Life and I want to reveal to the world. The goal is to showcase the artistry of Barbering along the east coast - from New Jersey to Florida. Barber Battles will show the aptitude and artistry of Barbering from each state, and the final competition will have the variety of styles and the diversity of haircuts from Barbers along the east coast on one stage showcasing their artistry and talent.

I have been dreaming and planning this competition for over 16 years and now it is time. I built my first Executive Mobile Barber Shop, and Barbers For Life and I are giving it away to the winners of the Biggest Barber Battles and final competitions of its kind. We are looking for Barbers who have the talent and skills to represent their state along the east coast. Will you be the one in your state driving away with their own, Executive Mobile Barber Shop to service your executive clientele?

All the proceeds will go to producing Barber Battle Competitions in the Nation.

Due to the high cost of Barber Schools and associated tools and equipment, proceeds of the competition will go to helping disadvantaged students pay for tuition, training, and tools, with the barber schools who participate in the barber battles.
