Splitwood Men’s Hair

​What truly differentiates Bess from the standard haircut experience is her technical mastery and attention to detail. While many shops in the area do well with clipper styles or buzz cuts, Bess excels at the intricate scissor work required for sophisticated, professional styles. ​If you’re looking for a refined, intentional look that goes beyond a basic trim, Bess is easily the best in Durham. Highly recommended!

Bess is simply the best! When I first moved to Durham, I was nervous about trying a new stylist, but after my first service with Bess, I was quickly at ease. Her professionalism, skill, and hospitality are unmatched. I would recommend her to any of my friends!

Bess is really easy to work with, fully trust her to take a general direction and give the best outcome. Really knowledgeable on products and which to recommend based on your hair type and needs. Can’t recommend enough

I've never met a hair professional I've been happy with before Bess. She's knowledgeable, knows how to fill in the blanks for when a client is unsure exactly how to articulate what they want, and is very, very good at what she does.

Incredible barber. Bess has given me the best cuts of my life and is a fabulous conversationalist to boot. I went to three other barbers in Durham before finding Bess; I hope this review will spare you the same search process :)
