We bring together the feel of a vintage barber shop with modern, high quality products and services to ensure our customers leave looking dapper and feeling like a million bucks!
The Digs
Nestled in the heart of Spartanburg, SC, the Black Derby Barber Co. is a revival of traditional barbershops of the classic and dapper days, where impeccable grooming was the mark of a distinguished gentleman.
Traditional straight razor shaves with hot towels, classic clipper cutting, locally sourced hair products, and complimentary beverages with your service.
But beyond that, Black Derby is an experience, where each customer is treated like an old friend, and where connoisseurs and everymen can gather and bask in a life well lived.
True strength isn't in defining yourself. True strength is sticking to your guns.
You don't need to look far to see that our bonafide, top-notch barbers have just that. We aren't simply proud of our staff because they care about what they do. We are proud because they represent the very gumption that our best customers possess: The strength to be themselves.
Through this lens, they can capture your best look and the best way to maintain it, so that when the time comes, you don't have to question whether or not you made the right decision.
With our selection of products, you can live that life to the fullest, secure in the fact that you not only look good, but you did it on your own terms.
Shampoos
When cleaning your beard, it seems obvious to just use the same shampoo that runs from your scalp to your face.
Here's the thing: Facial hair has a very different makeup than scalp hair. It's more brittle and requires the same oils that many shampoos wash away.
Don't waste your time, effort, or face mane to laziness!
Beard oil can be tricky. It acts as a conditioner and is helpful for younger beards that are still in the stubble phase.
So if things are looking a little dry (or dandruffy), splash some oil up in there. He also added that beard oil is double-acting as a cologne, so you get some more bang for your back.
For men rocking a more developed chin-rug, we offer a large selection of utility balms.
Unlike oils, the heavier aspects of pomade stay on the hair and face longer, ensuring an even further application of moisturizers. And because of it's thickness, it gives a more sculpted look.
I like to consider myself a regular. Starr always does a fantastic job, is very friendly, and takes the time to make sure the service matches expectation! I highly recommend Starr and the black derby!
