Barbershop The amount of times I’ve gone home with a haircut I didn’t like is tragic. I couldn’t get the words out. Mid way through a cut, barber decides to use black enhancement spray on my hairline or sponge my hair. Also times when I knew exactly what haircut style I wanted but resort to showing a picture instead. I’ve changed barbers since then. Granted it wasn’t his fault but not asking me what I want beforehand is not okay. I schedule appointments on days where it’s not busy so 9am-10am on Monday-Friday. It’s been a lot better. Able to communicate with my barber. This is one of the places I want to be free at because it has a small community vibe to it. Lots of funny interesting convos, that I want to join but can’t talk without a block in the way. I’ve managed to have a somewhat smooth conversation with my barber but it went radio silent because of a block. I haven’t been able to overcome a block, so when it happens I personally stop talking.
