Local Craft, Coastal Character
A traditional barbershop and full-service salon on Long Beach Road, serving Southport and the Brunswick County coast.
Who we are
One Shop, Two Sides, One Standard
Long Beach Barber is a locally owned traditional barbershop and beauty salon in Southport, North Carolina, led by owner and master barber Weston "Wes" Hood. It's the kind of shop reviewers describe as clean, welcoming, and worth the drive — "I live in Raleigh but will only get my haircut when I'm down there."
The barbershop side is home to Wes, Cory Sexton, and Cody Peele. The salon side — Long Beach Upstyle, with Gianna and co-owner Olivia Hood — handles color and styling. Two menus, one roof, one standard of care.
What We Believe
The chair is a room you belong in
Good music, complimentary refreshments, and a lobby that's easy to wait in — with a spot for the kids.
Take your time in the chair
Reviewers say it best: "they take their time when someone is in the chair — which is what you want."
Details make the cut
Necklines, edges, and beard lines finished by hand. Wes is known for the area's best beard lineups.
Local, always
We're a small business on the Brunswick County coast, and proud to be Southport's regular chair.
