Nelson – Barbershop, Hairdresser & Tattoo Salon WordPress Theme Overview
Nelson is a WordPress design with an urban, slightly vintage character, written for barbers, hairdressers, stylists and tattoo artists. The vendor extends it to piercing studios, beard grooming shops, beauty parlours, spa salons and men’s fashion, and notes that the styling also suits bars and taverns.
ThemeREX is the author. Pages are built in Elementor, including headers and footers, with block editor support. The studio’s framework supplies several hundred customizer options, custom post types, widget sets and shortcodes, settings inheritance with overrides and an Ajax search, with boxed or full-width presentation and one-click demo installation.
Two premium plugins come with the package: Slider Revolution for banner areas and QuickCal for appointment scheduling, which matters in a trade that runs on the time slot. WooCommerce templates are included for retail, and the compatible plugin list adds Essential Grid, Contact Form 7 with a date picker, Mailchimp for WordPress and a consent plugin.

Who Nelson – Barbershop, Hairdresser & Tattoo Salon WordPress Theme Is Suitable For
This suits Canadian personal-care shops with a strong look: traditional and modern barbershops, hair salons, beard and shave bars, tattoo studios and piercing shops, and chair-rental collectives where each artist needs a profile. Service menus, pricing, artist galleries and a booking link are the core of such a site.
Nail studios, brow and lash bars and small spa salons work equally well. The shop pages suit pomades, beard oils, styling products, aftercare supplies and gift cards.
Important Notes About Nelson – Barbershop, Hairdresser & Tattoo Salon WordPress Theme
The licence is per site and the preview photography stays with its owners. Layouts rely on Elementor and the bundled plugins. Read the change log before planning a booking flow: the bundled appointment plugin was swapped for a different one in a 2024 release, and a cryptocurrency payment add-on was dropped shortly after.
Personal-care premises in Canada are inspected by local public health, and tattoo and piercing studios carry additional infection prevention and equipment requirements. Age and consent rules for tattooing and piercing differ by province and municipality and should be stated on the site. Aftercare pages are general information, not medical advice, and should say so. Avoid claims about safety, healing or results; laser tattoo removal in particular may be a restricted procedure limited to specific licensed professionals in your province. The vendor also suggests the styling for tobacco shops, a category with its own advertising restrictions. Compliance rests with the shop owner.
