BARBER PAT / SOUTHWEST DC
Your neighborhood.
Your barber.
Barber 202 is a place to put your next cut into words. Find Pat at 8 Elmira Street SW, bring your reference, and talk through what feels right for you.
Make yourself at home in the conversation.
Some visits are about keeping a familiar cut. Others start with a new idea. Tell Pat what you liked about your last haircut, what you would change, and how you wear your hair day to day. The details matter: the length you want to keep, the shape around your temples, the finish at the neckline, and the way your beard connects to the cut.
See the work. Bring your own point of view.
Visit Pat’s Instagram to explore his work, then bring a reference that helps explain your own preferences. The gallery brings together photos from Pat’s theCut portfolio. Save a favorite and bring it to your consultation. Your consultation is where an idea becomes a plan for your hair.

Browse before your visit, follow a source that interests you, or start with a practical guide to describing the cut you want.
