About Barbers Of The Lowcountry

Barbers of the Lowcountry is a family owned and operated barbershop located in the heart of Bluffton, SC. The business was formed after a simple realization, men don’t belong in a beauty salon, they belong in a barbershop!

Lowcountry prides itself in being the area’s premier professional barbershop, providing a professional atmosphere with convenient appointments as well as accepting walk-ins. Lowcountry’s main goal is to provide a first class, full-grooming service including straight razor shaves with pre-shaving oils, rejuvenating hot towels, followed by hot lather and finishing off with a relaxing after-shave soothing lotion.

Brent Nelsen and his father, Lou, started their shop in December of 1997. Because of their passion in men’s hair care and grooming they have worked hard in developing a state-of-the-art premier barbershop. Through the years they both have honed their skills in hair care, razor shaves, the finest of grooming products, and overall grooming look and experience. In 2003 they even added a men’s hair replacement division where they still service men and their hair replacement needs.

Lowcountry’s professional staff is ready to serve each customer from the moment they walk-in with refreshment’s and something cold or hot to drink including local craft beer.  

The shop’s success is largely due to Brent Nelsen, a business minded entrepreneur who saw a gap in the hair care market segment for men very early.  Brent has creative a team work culture among the barbers and staff that make them feel a part of something bigger than themselves and stay on for years.  Brent also understands the challenges of hire talented barbers and has developed a growing system for that as well.

One thing Brent is proud to also be apart of is the willingness of him and his team to give back to the community.  Each shop is in someway involved with giving back to the community.  At our Bluffton location, we host an annual golf tournament to raise money for Bluffton Self Help, a wonderful local organization that provides support to our neighbors in need.

Another major differentiator introduced by Brent is the mobile barber operation. It started out of necessity but the team quickly recognized the demand for a mobile service. It is also an amazing way for us to differentiate Lowcountry in the franchise marketplace. There has been an enormous amount of interest, potential franchise growth, and overall acceptance of Lowcountry as a business and brand.

With the appropriate structure, planning, and defined business models, Lowcountry has the potential to help redefine the barbershop industry segment. The market seems primed for a well-branded, high-quality provider to deliver these services in a brick and mortar or mobile operation, at a price point that an individual with average income can afford.
