Shout out to my bros on 233rd and White Plains rd


Dudes at the old barbershop on tremont...btw homie with the beanie is the one that claims driving in reverse down the cross bronx at 65mph

Dude w. the Henny looks like a dominican Juwan Howard

When I was at St. John's there used to be a barbershop across the street from the school (headquarters, anyone? 

) the worst barber in that joint was a dude named Mouse.  Dude could have been Beanie Sigel's body double....if you looked up the word "unsanitary" in Webster's, you'd probably see his mug.  Dude smelled like a bag of stale funyuns.  If he was cutting ur hair and got the munchies, he'd leave your %@! in the chair while he left and took a 45 minute lunch/snack break.  No joke....the last straw w. the dude was one day he was eating powdered donuts while cutting my boy's hair.  Dude had sugar all over his mitts, licked his fingers and then put his hand back on my boy's head to finish the cut

Straight nasty....his chair was empty 95% of the time we went in there for cuts...and that was for good reason.  "Yo son...u need a cut?...Nah, I'm good" 

*Cuttys on Parsons was where it was at

**If u going to a dominican/PR/columbian barber shop...if that joint says they open at 10am, in reality it's noon.  Dudes need time to sober up after either watching boxing the night before or from hitting the salsa

I've never been there, but I've heard how terrible it is inside

I go to the haircut and get exactly that and leave...I don't see people hanging around at all. People come in with the scheduled appointment get your haircut, pay and then leave. Maybe this is b/c I am white LOL

Everything I read in here rings true lol.

Craziest for me, was growing up my cuzin cut my hair and the shop he worked at Onyx, in New Bruns. NJ, was so big, It had like 40 chairs, and they'd all be fully. Also had like a clothing store in it, and a food spot. Was just crazy.

However the craziest character I've ever seen in a barbershop, was this dude that used to come around this other place i went to when my cuz was locked up. Dude was old and dark always had a Kangol on, and had to perfectuly triangular/pyramind puffs of hair coming out the back of the hat. I never saw dude without the hat on to know if was bald with this afro puffs in the back or what. But this guy would stand and tell stories for hours about nothing. Wild. wish I had a camera phone back then.
