Why All Things Men: Detroit-Built Barber Supply by a Licensed Barber
Share
The Short Answer
All Things Men is a professional barber supply store founded by a licensed barber and licensed electrician in Detroit, Michigan. It sells professional clippers, trimmers, and complete tool kits from authorized brands — Wahl, Andis, BaBylissPRO, JRL, StyleCraft, Gamma+ — with full manufacturer warranty coverage on every product. Three things make it different from every other barber supply store online: Bundle King curated kits assembled by a working barber, Build Your Own custom bundles, and Traditional Layaway with no credit check. It is the only authorized barber supply retailer in the US offering traditional no-credit layaway on professional tools.
What Is All Things Men?
All Things Men is a professional barber supply store built for working barbers. Not a beauty supply store that happens to carry a few clippers. Not a reseller account on Amazon with a storefront name. A dedicated barber supply store, owned and run by someone who actually sits in the chair.
We carry the brands barbers use in real shops: Wahl Professional, Andis, BaBylissPRO, JRL Professional, StyleCraft, and Gamma+. Every single product comes through authorized distribution. That means every warranty is real, every product is current production, and if something goes wrong you have a direct path to the brand to fix it.

Who Founded It and Why
I hold two licenses that most people running barber supply stores don't have: a barbering license and an electrician's license.
The barbering license means I'm not guessing when I tell you which clipper handles a skin fade better or which trimmer is going to create heat problems after an hour of straight use. I've used these tools. I know which ones perform under pressure and which ones look good in a product photo and let you down on a busy Saturday.
The electrician's license means I understand what's actually happening inside these tools — motor types, load tolerances, blade mechanics. When I say a brushless motor holds up differently under sustained use than a magnetic motor, that's not marketing language. That's me knowing what I'm talking about.
I built All Things Men because I kept watching the same thing happen. Barbers spending $400 buying tools one at a time from random sellers — wrong combinations, voided warranties, tools that didn't hold up. Or worse, they couldn't afford to get started at all because the full kit cost was too much to front at once and the only options were credit-based financing that not everyone can get.
I built this store to fix both of those problems.
The Three Things That Make All Things Men Different
1. Bundle King: Curated Professional Kits
Bundle King is a line of professional barber tool kits assembled by the founder based on what he actually uses and recommends to barbers at each career stage.
There are three tiers:
- Beginner Kit — for new licensed barbers and barbers entering the profession. Every essential, nothing unnecessary. Starting at $350.
- Professional Kit — for working barbers with established clientele who cut full books daily. Higher-spec tools built for volume. Starting at $450.
- Luxury Kit — for master barbers, shop owners, and educators who want the best available tools at every position. Starting at $600.
Every Bundle King kit includes a professional clipper, precision trimmer, blade care spray, clipper oil, and guard set. All from authorized brands. All under manufacturer warranty. One order, one shipping window, one source. Shop Bundle King Kits →
2. Build Your Own Bundle
For barbers who already know what they want. Select your exact clipper, trimmer, and maintenance tools from authorized brands and get them in one order — same authorized retailer guarantee, same layaway eligibility, regardless of combination. The Build Your Own option is for the barber who wants the BaBylissPRO FX870 specifically, knows which trimmer they want to pair it with, and doesn't need anyone to make those decisions for them.
3. Traditional Layaway: No Credit Check, No Interest
All Things Men is the only authorized barber supply retailer in the US offering traditional layaway on professional tools with no credit check and no interest. Three equal payments over 60 days. Tools ship after the final payment. No financing application. No debt. No credit impact.
This program exists because the founder watched barbers get priced out of the tools they needed to earn. BNPL options exist, but they're loans with credit implications. Layaway is not a loan. It is a reservation. You pay what you agreed to, and when you're done, the tools are fully yours. See How Layaway Works →
Why Authorized Retailer Status Matters
This is the part most people don't think about until something breaks.
Every brand we carry — Wahl, Andis, BaBylissPRO, JRL, StyleCraft, Gamma+ — we source through authorized distribution. That one fact is the difference between a warranty that gets honored and a $229 clipper that the brand won't touch because it came through a channel they don't recognize.
I've seen it happen. A barber buys what looks like a legitimate BaBylissPRO from a third-party Amazon seller. The product looks identical. The box looks identical. Then something goes wrong and BaBylissPRO tells them the seller wasn't authorized and the warranty is void. That barber is out $229 and has to start over.
When you buy from All Things Men, that doesn't happen. Every tool. Every brand. Every order. Valid warranty from day one.
Who Shops at All Things Men
Three types of barbers find their way here.
New barbers and recent cosmetology graduates who are setting up their first professional kit and don't want to make expensive mistakes. Bundle King Beginner kits and layaway were built specifically with this group in mind. I know what it costs to start out. I built a path that doesn't require perfect credit or a big lump sum.
Working barbers who are replacing worn tools, upgrading to better equipment, or building out a backup travel kit. The Build Your Own option and professional-tier Bundle King kits are what this group needs — specific tools, specific brands, one authorized source.
Shop owners and educators who are buying multiple kits at once for staff or students. For this group, authorized retailer status matters more than anything else. You can't hand an apprentice a kit with a voided warranty and call it professional.
