Training elite barbers. Building real careers.

Changing the game in barber education.

Sharp Top Academy isn’t your typical barber school. We’re built by working barbers who know what it takes to make real money and build a real future in this industry.

Our program focuses on real shop experience, technical mastery, and mindset development. We're not here to just help you pass the test—we're here to help you thrive behind the chair.

Tools for today's barber.

We give students access to shop-tested techniques, industry-standard tools, and client-building strategies. From fading to business fundamentals, every part of the curriculum is designed to help you win in a real barbershop—not just in a classroom.

Advanced Training for Future Barbers

At Sharp Top Academy, we don’t stop at the basics. Our program includes advanced education in fading, scissor work, beard shaping, and client experience. You’ll also gain insight into time management, upselling products, and what it takes to scale your clientele fast. Whether you're fresh out of school or leveling up, we’ve got the roadmap.

Community-Focused. Culture-Driven.

Sharp Top Academy was built in Lynchburg and built for Lynchburg. We’re here to raise the standard—creating jobs, leaders, and a culture of excellence through barbering. Our goal isn’t just to teach haircuts. It’s to empower the next wave of community builders.

I built this academy because I’ve lived the struggle of trying to grow as a barber without guidance. This is the school I wish I had—one that teaches the craft, the mindset, and the business.”
