Something that's important to us at The Big Beard Cartel?
​
​Style. For me, each person has their own unique sense of style, something that brings out their best features and gives them that extra bit of confidence when they walk out the door.
​
​That's why when you come to me for a cut, I will always ask you about what you like, your lifestyle and the level of maintenance you want for your hair. I want you to walk out my doors knowing that you look the absolute best, and feel so confident with you new cut, that people will stop you in the street and ask what your secret is!
​
​So if you're looking for more than just a 'cut', and looking for a new style, or simply want to discover what exactly your style is, book an appointment and let me help you.

They say two heads are better than one - well, how about two pairs of hands?!

If we haven't met, I'm Kat, the owner of The Big Beard Cartel Barbershop in Karratha. What you might not know is I'm from a a small, northern European country called Estonia, and I've been enjoying the eternal sunshine in Karratha for a little over 3 years 🔆

As the barbershop name suggests, I'm obsessed with beards. I just love shaping them to their full potential, small or big! My mission here in Karratha is to run the best & most relaxed barbershop with the best service for our dear clients and also a nice place to come to work and have fun at. If you love what you do you'll never work a day in your life!

This dapper man to my right is the newest member to The Big Beard Cartel family, Sam 😊 while a Perth born-and-raised man, he now calls Karratha home, and has been barbering for over a year now. He's loving his life in the Pilbara, and has had a lot of opportunities for growth, which is what I love to hear! 

Sam's specialty is skin fades and tapers giving the sharp lineups, leaving all his clients happy feeling fresh for the weekend 😎

Drop some love in the comments to welcome Sam to the Big Beard Cartel family ❤️
F.A.M.I.L.Y 💈❤️ 
​
​Being a Big Beard Cartel customer means being a member of our family!

That means that when you walk in the door, you’re treated like one.
​
​So come say g'day and let us give you an experience that feels equally as good afterwards as a Sunday barbecue down at the Dampier foreshore.

Help us help Ukraine 🇺🇦 Maybe it's your kindness that'll get you a cut on us next time!

Kat is very passionate about this war as it’s all happening less than 1000km from her home Estonia. 

Fun fact - Estonia has 2 independence days and they’re both from kicking Russias butt. We support Ukraine is this fight with all our hearts! 💙💛

Ever had a hair cut or beard trim, only to realise you have to go back two weeks later for a tidy up?
​
​Not at The Big Beard Cartel. We want you to walk away with a look that will last. 
​
​So whether it's a long swing on site, or life has got you run off your feet - you won't need to rush back. 
​
But when you do, we'll have a nice cold drink and relaxing head massage waiting 🍺 💆‍♂️

Been rocking the same hairdo since... well, since forever?
​
​It can be scary changing your hairstyle, however we highly recommend it! Not only can changing your hair change how you look, but it can also make you more confident and suit changes in your environment (eg: when moving to a hot climate, long hair isn't practical!). 
​
​If you're ready for a change with a trusted barber, look no further than Kat at The Big Beard Cartel. With over 100 5-star Google reviews, you know that this will be a good change.

Before you consider investing in the fanciest new shaver, have you thought about the carbon footprint of your new purchase?
​
​We're all about honesty at The Big Beard Cartel, and we're going to be honest.
​
​Before you jump into buying a new shaver, you should look into eco-friendly options, like this shaver pictured, which we stock in our salon.
​
​Unlike supermarket shavers, where you replace the entire head, contributing to landfill waste, all you need to do is replace the razor blades, which are also recyclable. 
​
​This shaver, which is made of ethically sourced materials and stainless steel, will last you ten times longer than plastic shavers, and best of all, it looks pretty good on your bathroom shelf. 
​
​You can buy it as part of this pictured set, which includes a badger hair shaving brush, and the stand. We also sell a pack of 100 replaceable blades for $30 - cheaper than a 15 pack of disposable razor blade heads!
​
​It's time to treat yoself and upgrade to sleek, and eco-friendly shaving accessories. Check it out in our barbershop, or hop online and add it to your cart (website link in bio).

A barber shop that's appointment only?
​
​Yeah, that's us. You're probably thinking: "wait, what? But who's going to book appointments? No one's got time."
​
​But the fact is, appointments are a fantastic idea. Why? Because:
​
​💇‍♂️ appointments allow us to spend the right amount of time on your cut and shave, and we're not rushing you out the door for the next customer
​💇‍♂️ no queues! Is there anything else worse than queueing for a haircut?
​💇‍♂️ we're not just about the 'cut' at The Big Beard Cartel. You're here for some time out and self care, and appointments mean we're allowing time for the little things, like that scalp massage, and the hot towels.
​
​While we love walk-in appointments, the fact is, our books are usually full so we can't accept them - so booking ahead is the safer option.
​
​Interested? Why not book an appointment with us and discover what all the fuss is about.
