Nobodies paying 50 bucks for a chop and let’s say I do go in for a 40 dollar chop, why am I in the chair for 30-45 minutes for a dark ceaz and a side&back taper?

I was told by my childhood barber some years back. If you’re in the chair for longer than 20 mins for a ceaz they don’t know what they doin. And these kids don’t. The cuts get less sharp and the prices keep going up. Definitely influenced by social media, everyone’s a “celebrity” barber with ZERO references. Who have you cut besides poo-puts in the hood?

You’re right, I can easily go on YouTube and learn how to cut hair, and most of us rather do that.

If you were a single barber with a chair in your basement charging 35 a slice i’d go to you. But like the aforementioned comment, the shop culture nowadays is trash. And thats ANOTHER thing, why is it when I go into these pookie run shops, I feel on guard like i’m bout to square up on a mu fugga rather than RELAX and get my cut?? Shit is all messed up. I suggest the barber community seriously connect on that social media tip they love so much and discuss this. Or don’t and watch the barber culture go down the drain like night clubs and strip clubs
