We just raised some money!
TL;DR
We raised a seed round; We’re hiring!; Back to school with the Washington Football Team.
2021 has been a very exciting year for theCut. We’ve been working hard and are ending the year in stride. We now have over 10,000 barbers actively booking on theCut every month. Nearly 3 million people have downloaded our app over the last few years and they’ve booked just about 30,000,000 appointments. We’re now enabling $500,000,000 worth of haircuts per year.
All that being said, we just closed our official seed round of financing and raised $4,500,000 to help us continue to grow the business. We’ll be hiring engineers while building marketing and growth teams to accelerate our expansion. So if you know any phenomenal Android, iOS, or backend engineers please let us know. Check out our careers page to see all other open positions.
It’s back-to-school season. We love giving back when we can and the barbers on theCut do as well. This year we had two events going on. We partnered with the Washington Football team to bring barbers to their Back to School Fair. 1000 kids in the DMV area pulled up to get school supplies and services for the new year. Barbers offered the kids free haircuts for a little back-to-school confidence boost. We’re also hosting our second annual Back to School event where parents can book free haircuts for their kids in the app. Check out the event here.
Much love,
theCut team
