EDRICH MAKABALI

Founder

Founder of The Modern Man Barbershop and a licensed barber with over 15 years of experience in the industry. What started as a passion for the craft has grown into a career dedicated not only to delivering high-level haircuts, but also to building a space where both clients and barbers can thrive. My focus is on precision, consistency, and creating an experience that goes beyond the chair. To me, barbering is about confidence, it’s about how you feel when you leave just as much as how you look. Every client who sits in my chair can expect attention to detail, professionalism, and a standard that reflects years of experience. My goal is to maintain a culture of growth, respect, and top-tier service. The Modern Man isn’t just a barbershop, it’s a place where quality, community, and craft come together.

I’m a barber driven by my passion for fashion, music, and community. I enjoy working with all hair types and styles—it’s more than a craft to me, it’s how I connect, stay creative, and uplift people.
