Behind the numbers
How the wait estimate works
The “current wait” on this site is an illustrative estimate, not a live queue. It is worked out in your browser from three things:
- Whether the shop is open right now, in Chicago time.
- How many barbers are scheduled in the chair this hour.
- A typical walk-in traffic curve for this day of the week and hour.
It is a good guide to busy and quiet times (Saturday mornings and weekday evenings are busiest), but for an exact wait, call the shop: (773) 555-0142 for Logan Square or (312) 555-0187 for Pilsen.
