Inside of Barber Shop

A barber shop (also known as barber's) is an establishment that offer services; primarily in cutting, dressing, grooming, and styling people's hair. A barber shop can be a desirable base in a zombie apocalypse, mainly because few people would think of using the local barber shop as a place of refuge.

Advantages[]

  • A barber shop will likely have solitude, as few people would think of looting a barber shop.
  • Barbers mainly cut hair, shave moustaches and beards, and may also do piercings. Hence, barber shops may contain a lot of sterilizers and other medical supplies.
  • Since barbers cut hair, you're sure to find at least one sharp thing lying around.

Disadvantages[]

  • A barber shop is unlikely to contain food, and if it does, the amount will likely be sparse.
  • Most barber shops don't offer much in living space.
  • A barber shop is usually not very well protected, therefor zombies can easily break in.
  • Barber shops tend to be in populated areas surrounded by other business meaning that outside there will likely be many zombies and the possibility of aggressive survivors looting nearby buildings, possibly seeing you through the windows in the process.
