How To Deal With Barber in Lethal Company

The Barber, also known as Clay Surgeon, is an indoor enemy in Lethal Company. Players, or employees as they are called, can find it in factories on different moons. As we mentioned above, it has big scissors pointed at you, and you won’t be able to see it from far away.

The only way to tell if Barber is around is by listening for the trumpet-like sound he makes. When you hear him nearby, move slowly so you don’t run out of stamina and he doesn’t catch you off-guard. Barber usually roams freely, but if he spots a player, he will start chasing them with quick jumps. It’s important to keep a good distance from the Barber. His sharp scissors can cut you in half in a flash.

During the day, he jumps every 2.75 seconds, but at night, it’s faster at 1.25 seconds. Expectedly then, it is easier to deal with him during the day than at night.

You can’t kill Barber in Lethal Company. Shooting him, hitting him with a Shovel, or using the Zap Gun won’t work. To deal with it, you need to lock it in a room because it can’t open doors. A quick heads-up: Employees can temporarily stun him with devices like the Radar Booster. You can also use a Stun Grenade to limit their movement, so make sure to keep such items in your inventory. When fighting them, make sure to listen to their footsteps carefully and keep moving away from where you last saw them.

The Barber is most commonly found on 7-Dine, but he can appear on other moons too. Here's a list of all the moons where he might show up:
