Not Your Average Barber Shop

Tyler Molitor, a barber at Belmont Barber Shop, generously gave us a few minutes of his time to tell us about this one-of-a-kind business and its award-winning online reputation.

The first thing we wanted to know was what it is that sets Belmont Barber Shop apart from the many other barber shops in Ohio. Tyler told us that it’s the personalization they offer their clients — it’s a small shop with three chairs — the fact that they’ve been serving the community for more than 60 years, their old-school, classic barber shop vibe, and to the fact that they give their clients what they want.

Tyler went on to tell us that they do the little things to provide their guests with a next-level experience, such as providing water and having music playing.

We also wanted to know why they do what they do at Belmont Barber Shop and how they work to make the world a better place. Here’s what Tyler had to say:

“The goal is to provide people with classic haircuts that they can feel confident about and to provide a community space for people to hang out in…”

Building Success Through Customer Service and Training

When we asked Tyler about Belmont Barber Shop’s secret to such a strong online reputation, he pointed to their commitment to customer service and training, to their great boss who cares about them and what they need, and to the camaraderie in their shop — a couple of the barbers went to school together; they all get along well and share supplies and tips with one another.

Outside of building the kind of online reputation any business owner would envy, Belmont Barber Shop has spread the word about who they are and what they do through social media — particularly Instagram.

Clearly, Tyler knows a thing or two about growing a business and building an online reputation. Here’s his expert advice for the many other barber shops out there:

“Engage and care about your people. You can be the best barber in the world, but if you aren’t personal, it doesn’t make people feel welcome. Listen to what the clients want and adapt that to your mission.”


Congratulations to the team at Belmont Barber Shop for being a 2019 Top Rated Local award winner, and thank you so much, Tyler, for taking the time to speak with us!
