Westchester Barber Academy got its start in 2016 after years of running as an after school program at one of the local Charter Middle Schools in Mount Vernon, NY. The program was founded by then Charter School Director- Mr. Charnay Phaire, as a way to mentor inner city middle school students by teaching them the skill of barbering. The program’s success inspired Mr. Phaire (who was a longtime Barber) to start the Westchester Barber Academy to always equip people with a skilled trade to create jobs and business owners, all while serving the local community.
