Kerry McNab
The Squeaky Blonde Barber is back! Kerry is excited to make her return to the Dogpatch Barber and Shave, whilst splitting time as an Educator for the Skyline College Barber Program in San Bruno. Kerry owes the foundation of her passion for Barbering to her family for shining a light on the connection you make with your client, and for constantly reminding her to bring her clippers to holidays. Client and community connection is Kerry’s top priority in her career, as well as educating herself, her clients, and fellow Barbers. Kerry likes to start her services from a mutual place of understanding to meet clients’ expectations better, and to create a safe space in her chair for her clientele. After the sudden passing of Her Father, Dan, the guiding force of her Barber career, Kerry has risen to embrace her time on the barber chair as an extraordinary way to connect with clients and students on a much deeper level. The human connection in Barbering is like none other, and Kerry is a true depiction of that.
