A barbershop is a place where players are able to alter their character's appearance on Barbershop Chairs. They are able to change everything about the appearance of their race including gender.

Every race and gender has a selection of multiple choices that are race and gender-exclusive options. Hero class characters have a number of options that are exclusive to those classes.

  • Changing your hairstyle will complete the achievement Inv misc comb 02 [Shave and a Haircut].
  • Prior to patch 10.0.0, each change at the barbershop had a price which increased with each level, adding up if multiple features were changed. Level 1 characters can change hairstyles for free, assuming you skip all the starting quests and go straight to the barber. It ranged from a couple silver for a low-level player to above 10 gold for a max-level player depending on the changes.
  • Very few of the hairstyles added in Wrath of the Lich King were actually new. They were taken from and added to different races and genders.
  • Prior to Cataclysm the barber in Stormwind was a goblin Sween Neetod who was replaced by Jelinek Sharpshear a gnome.
  • At least one member of the Blizzard team is rooting for a specific hairstyle. Bornakk wants mohawks for every race, both male and female.[1] He not only wants mohawks, he wants huge mohawks.
  • Prior to Shadowlands Druids changes of hair/skin color changed their bear and cat form color combinations. Moonkin colors were preset and never changed. Post-Shadowlands release, the colors may now be set and saved independently. Legion artifact forms and the Inv staff 99 [Fandral's Flamescythe] were added to the barbershop options too.
  • When at a barbershop, you automatically wear a Inv shirt guildtabard 01 [Barber's Drape].
