Why Great Barbers Look Beyond the Percentage Split


One of the first questions many barbers ask when looking for a new opportunity is:


“What’s the percentage split?”


It’s an understandable question, but at LTZ Group we believe it shouldn’t be the only one.


A higher percentage of today’s earnings doesn’t always mean a better career tomorrow.


Looking Beyond the Numbers


Many self-employed barbers work on percentage-based agreements. On the surface, a 70/30 split can appear more attractive than a 50/50 arrangement.

But the real question is:


70% of what?


A larger percentage of a quieter chair may generate less income than a smaller percentage of a busy diary supported by an established brand, professional marketing and a loyal customer base.


At LTZ, we focus on creating opportunities that help barbers increase their overall earnings, not simply the percentage they receive.


Invest in Your Future


Joining LTZ Group isn’t just about renting a chair.

It’s about becoming part of a growing business that invests in its people.


As an award-winning Independent Training


Provider, learning and development sit at the heart of everything we do. Around 95% of our team are currently working towards a recognised qualification, continually improving their technical skills, customer service and professional development.

That commitment benefits everyone—our customers, our learners and our barbers.


More Than Just Haircuts


Barbering is changing.


Today’s successful barbers need much more than technical ability. Building a long-term career also requires confidence in:


  • Customer consultation

  • Communication

  • Business awareness

  • Personal branding

  • Social media

  • Leadership

  • Mentoring

  • Continuous professional development


At LTZ, these aren’t optional extras—they’re part of the culture.


A Growing Business Creates Growing Opportunities


As LTZ Group continues to expand across new locations and new markets, opportunities grow with it.

Whether your ambition is to become a Senior Barber, Educator, Mentor, Manager or even support future international projects, we believe career progression should be available to everyone prepared to develop their skills and contribute to the business.


Many barbers look only at today’s chair.


We encourage people to think about where they want to be in five years’ time.


Our Philosophy


We believe that success isn’t measured solely by what you earn this week.


It’s measured by the knowledge you gain, the customers you retain, the opportunities you create and the career you build.


That’s why we continue to invest heavily in training, apprenticeships and professional development.


Because when our people grow, our business grows with them.


Looking for More Than Just a Chair?


If you’re a barber who’s looking for more than simply renting a chair, we’d love to have a conversation.

At LTZ Group, you’ll find:


  • A growing and ambitious business

  • An award-winning training environment

  • Continuous professional development

  • Career progression opportunities

  • A supportive team culture

  • Established customer demand across our shops

  • The chance to build a long-term career, not just earn a weekly income


Sometimes the best opportunity isn’t the biggest percentage—it’s the one that helps you become the best barber you can be.


I actually think this article is doing something bigger than recruitment. It’s explaining the LTZ employment philosophy. That philosophy could become a recurring theme in your content and help attract barbers who are motivated by development and long-term opportunity, not just the headline split.
