Was rockin with my old barber when he was cuttin out the kitchen of his apartment in 2015, paid him $15.
fast forward to present day he is one the top barbers in the city and is chargin $75 a cut and has his own shop. cuts a few NBA/NFL dudes too. Does other services such as eyebrows, facials, all type of stuff.
Seen him go from the kitchen, to barbers school, to working outta someone elses shop, to gettin his own suite, to havin his own shop. Truly motivational/inspirational
With that being said, I am officially priced out and cant afford no $75 cuts man lmao. I got locks anyway and just to get a lineup was $55, last one I got from him was in February. Still my dawg but financially couldnt do it. Aint been back since.
I moved to the burbs so driving 40 mins away to drop $55 wasnt an option no more. On top of gettin a retwist and style I was looking at spending $165 just to get my hair done and it would be a 5 hour process. Drive 40 mins away to get Shampoo retwist for 3 hours, drive 30 mins to barber, get a 45 min cut, then a 40 min drive back home.....Eff that....Got me a new barber, 7 minutes away, charges $18 for a lineup and she is actually decent, but its not as fresh as the old barber but it gets the job done.
Also..forgot to mention...$75 is the price if you are a reoccurring client...If you are a first time client your first cut is $95....after that its $75
