Get Clipped, Trimmed, and Nashed at Curriculum for Next-Level Grooming

Ditched the chain salons for Nash Thornley at Curriculum and wow—it looks great. No more subtle critiques about my haircut from my wife, either. That last part alone is worth another $10-20 bucks a month right there.

Nash nails the perfect cut and even the beard trim, blending artistry with precision. If you want to stand out at a wedding or any significant event, make your way to Curriculum. It’s an investment in looking and feeling great that I didn’t think I was ready to make, until I did.

And if you think Nash Thornley sounds like a character that stepped right out of a Chuck Palahniuk novel–– a barber who doesn’t just cut hair but slices through the mundane with the edge of his razor, crafting stories one haircut at a time––you wouldn’t be very far off the mark.

My dad LOVED Marcus. He’s amazing, professional, and fun to talk to!
Aside from being a really nice barber shop (beards, cuts, you name it!), they have some gorgeous gifts you can buy — journals, candles, of course beauty products, incense, and so much more!

This is the best barbershop in town. I’ve specifically been getting my haircuts by Nate Jones for a year and a half now and he does an incredible job. He takes his time, is very detail oriented and the results speak for themselves. The front of house staff are very kind and helpful. The products that they offer are high quality and well stocked. If you’re looking for a great haircut this is the place to go, you won’t be disappointed.

I do not write reviews, but Fletch’s services deserve a lot of recognition. I have been going to Him for over a year now and have never had a bad haircut. Every time I see him, he remembers exactly what He did to my hair and can bring my difficult requests to life that no other barbers can. He gives the best information concerning what product is best for you and styling techniques would best accomplish the look you want and all while maintaining healthy hair. I have never had a barber pay so much detail to my style requests, hair, and myself. Fletch loves what he does and it’s shown through his craftsmanship. He is such a great barber and person and I could not recommend him enough.

Bottom line: Book with Fletch if you want the best haircut, best service, and best experience

I love the vibes of the shop! There is free parking that is plentiful which is a nice change from my previous downtown barber. I booked with Fletch and had a great experience! He is very intelligent on the technical components of barbering. After my wash, he put a lot of time into shear work to get my hair to the style I showed him on an example image. My fade looks great. I’m happy, I’m definitely rebooking with him again!

Megan Porter hands down amazing Barber. Google won't let me rate what she deserves ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
I was lucky enough to walk in and wait a little bit since I didn't schedule on-line, she had a cancellation.
She listened to what I wanted, was very meticulous about the bald fade. She did perfect!! I've never BEFORE had a cut I was happy with when they turned the chair around. Couldn't be happier. She is easy going, laid back and really cares about her clients. She got a customer for life. Thanks again!! The wife loves it too, told me the next morning after I styled it I was lookin' hot!
Very high end Barber Shop makes you feel at home. Definitely recommend getting your hair cut here. Ask for Megan Porter when you schedule, you won't be disappointed. I'm

Best barber shop I've been to. Great vibe, and they have some great products. Logan has been cutting my hair for about a year now and never disappoints. He is very attentive to detail and is a genuinely nice guy. Chad, the owner, is awesome and ensures you're provided with top notch service. I highly recommend this place, you won't regret it.

Such a cool shop. Yet to receive a cut from curriculum but their retail shop is thoughtfully laid out. Very helpful staff. Please support this local gem.

I've been getting my hair cut by Mikaela for over a year now and she is honestly the best barber I've ever had. My hair is super straight and fine so it takes some skill to make it look good and she kills it every time:D Do yourself and your hair game a favor and schedule an appointment with her. The atmosphere in the shop is nice too.

Fletch is hands-down the best barber that has ever graced my hair. I’ve spent time at a lot of the higher-quality shops around SLC, and Fletch was the first barber EVER to take time to explain to me the type of hair I have, the best way to cut it, products best suited for the curls and thickness. Sitting in his chair is an educational experience that rivals PBS (without fearing nodding off in boredom). He’s hilarious and caring, and wields combs like a James Beard Chef wields ingredients. On the real, he is a phenomenal barber, and you should check him out.

Went to this barber shop for the first time yesterday and it was great. I have been to quite a few different places throughout Salt Lake and I have to say that Curriculum may be one of my favorites. Parker got me cleaned up real nice. He took his time and paid real close attention to detail. I really love the haircut he gave me. Not only was the haircut great, so was the feeling in the shop. Very modern and sleek. I will definitely be back.

Superb. The atmosphere is excellent! I had Logan cut my hair and he was top notch. He listened to everything I asked for and gave me a fantastic cut. They have a huge selection of products and I am so excited to try the new pomade I got! From beginning to end this place was wonderful. Worth the money for a great cut and a great experience.

After trying several different barbers in the greater Salt Lake area. This is the only barber shop I go to now. The staff is friendly, the atmosphere is super chill, the items for sale are unique and help pass the time while I wait for my appointment. They have several different barbers, but I always ask for Conlin. He is typically booked out a week or two, so be sure to call in advance. I like his professionalism and my hair always comes out looking tip top! I highly recommend this place!

My favorite barber shop ever! I’m constantly in search for a quality hair cut and I’ve gone to some of the most highly recommended barbers in Utah but honestly I’ve always enjoyed my experience here more than any other place and the prices are very reasonable. My barber is Nate Jones and he gives a stellar cut. I went to scissor and bones once because I had heard they were the best and their prices were also much higher so I figured it be a crazy good quality cut but honestly I got a much better cut from curriculum for a fair price which was half of what scissor and bones offer. The shop inside the barber shop is also super awesome, with curated goods and grooming products.

Probably the best damn barber shop in town. This place has been curated to give the client an exceptional experience. All the barbers are capable to give you an incredible cut, and I think that’s unique for a spot. You do have the ability however to develop meaningful relationships with the barbers, and I have had some wonderful conversations about all things music, food, life. Try it out for yourself.

This is a very unique place. A high-end men's grooming experience with amazing products you wouldn't find anywhere but here. They also dabble in the new non alcoholic cocktail craze that is happening nationwide and have a good selection of non alcoholic beer and "spirits". Do check this place out, so unique it's almost hard to describe. I will be back!

My favorite barbershop in the valley. Great modern, and comfortable atmosphere. And every barber here is amazing. One of the things I love most is how they don't play on the whole macho man barber thing. It's very inclusive to every type of person. Also, very competitive prices, at least for barbershops around the downtown area. Perfect.

This is the best barber shop in Salt Lake City. I've tried about a Dozen, and these guys take the cake. I've had several barbers here too, and never a bad cut. These guys don't just give you exactly what you ask for per say, they hear what you mean, not what you say. Custom haircuts at a great price. I'll be back every time I'm back in the state.

A few years ago I made a spur of the moment booking with Fletch and I’ve gone to see him once a month ever since. I’ll never go anywhere else.
Seeing a barber like Fletch at Curriculum is gratifying, relaxing, and extremely educational. It’s an essential experience I feel every guy should have on a regular basis.
I’ve learned from Fletch to properly groom and style in a way that’s tailored just for me and my hair. I feel amazing every time I go. It’s become one of those very rare “me time” things I do for myself that I couldn’t do without now.
Curriculum is an unbelievable space, very laid back, and everyone there is extremely professional. Love it. Go see Fletch, amazing experience every time for years now.

Curriculum is absolutely amazing. The staff are always alert and happy to assist. The interior of the shop is clean and professional. It honestly feels like a upscale spa experience everytime I go. The barbers are all experienced and they only use high quality products on your hair. Price might be steep for some as a haircut starts at $25, but as long as you're willing to explain what you want, the barbers will work with you to get your hair exactly the way you want it.
