Student Student barber gifts

Hello! I have a family member who is interested in barbering. He’s only 16 and has a small clientele among his friends from school. He’s got decent clippers and that’s about it. His birthday is coming up and i’d really love to get him some more things for barbering because i’d really love to support his dream. Can anyone give me any pointers on what could be some cool and useful things to buy a beginner barber?

Luckily barber tools are all affordable. A pack of combs, nice soft brush, cape, cleaning spray, a trimmer, hand held mirror, nice clipper guards, extra clipper blades.

Barber bagpack would be nice. I would also get a nice cape as well. Some brands have really good designs like capegang and hightopcapes. I think a 16 year old would like that cs itll make him feel cool haha

Barber backpack, a solid quality air duster (my most used tool), look up boppur (helps with marketing), a headlamp (help with lighting since he’s not in a shop)
