One chair, one standard. Meet the Master Barber behind the name.

"My first job at 11 was braiding hair. I'm 38 now and I'm still at it, loving it even more every day."

That adds up to more than 25 years behind the chair, the last decade and a half of it building Bud Kutz into a Spottswood Ave staple. Bud is a Licensed Master Barber and a state-licensed Active Instructor with the Tennessee State Board of Cosmetology and Barber Examiners. She doesn't just hold the credential to cut, she holds the credential to teach the craft.

Whether you're in for a crisp fade, a beard cleanup, a retwist, or braids, you're getting the same thing every client gets: skilled hands, straight talk, and a cut you don't have to fix when you get home.

Giving back to Memphis

On outreach days, the Bud Kutz crew packs lunch bags, writes "God is Good" on every one, and hands out food and water to neighbors in need around the city. See it for yourself on the photos page.
