Hector is a modern and clean Elementor Template Kit specifically designed for barbershops, hair salons, and male grooming studios. Developed by onecontributor and frequently updated (v1.0.x through late 2025), it offers a masculine, high-contrast aesthetic that balances traditional barbering elements with contemporary web design.
As a Template Kit, it is not a full WordPress theme but a collection of pre-designed page layouts that you import into an existing WordPress site using the Elementor page builder.
16+ Professionally Crafted Templates: Includes a comprehensive set of pages to launch a full-scale website in minutes.
Service Management: Dedicated layouts for showcasing different grooming services like "Haircuts," "Beard Trims," and "Shaving" with detailed descriptions.
Pricing Tables: Clean, easy-to-read pricing menus that allow clients to compare service packages quickly.
Integrated Booking Support: Styled sections ready to connect with appointment scheduling systems via MetForm.
Team Showcase: "Meet the Barbers" sections designed to highlight individual staff members and their expertise.
Portfolio Gallery: High-quality grid layouts to display before-and-after photos or style lookbooks.

Pros:
No Coding Required: Entirely drag-and-drop; you can change colors, fonts, and images without touching a line of code.
Mobile-First Design: Optimized for mobile users, which is crucial as most barber appointments are booked via smartphone.
Lightweight: Because it is a kit rather than a heavy theme, it is generally faster and better for SEO (Core Web Vitals).
Cons:
Elementor Pro Recommendation: While many pages work with the free version, you typically need Elementor Pro to use the Theme Builder for the Header and Footer templates.
Image Licensing: The kit uses demo images from Envato Elements; you must replace these with your own licensed photos or shop photography.
Design Tip for 2026: Use the "Jeg Elementor Kit" features included in Hector to add a subtle "Sticky Header" effect. This keeps your "Book Now" button visible at all times, even as customers scroll through your list of services.
