it might be, "too colorful"Originally Posted by piczon1983
I see what your saying man. But whats wrong with looking fresh?
qfe. age plays a lot in this.Originally Posted by Im Not You
And for the record...I think these things are foundational. Look at the examples given. Tiger? He's probably never had a shape up. He didn't come up in an environment where shape ups were "essential" to compliment a hair cut. I know people like that NOW. That extra crispness isn't important to them. They cut their hair in length and go on about their business. They don't have the mindset that "now I need this shape up to complete this look". Jesse Jackson? I've seen Jesse with a line before...but you have to understand with his age/hair type he's probably not going to be stressing a shape up all the time as someone like myself would. There's a reason why shape ups have their own price on barber's menus. They're optional.
that's why I wrote "I think."Originally Posted by DCAllAmerican

he just doesn't get a Dominican shapeup where it's super razor sharp and the hairline is pushed back half an inch.

DO most black/white barbers know how to cut the other race's hair? Are they taught that?
I can only comment on what I see and seems as if Black barbers do and either White barbers don't...or black people just aren't comfortablewith getting their hair cut by a white person. When I lived in NOVA...I used to walk by and glance in white barbershops and I never saw a single black personin there. But I can go to Largo...and see more than a few white dudes walk in on a busy day.Originally Posted by DCAllAmerican

But will you have extra clean, razor sharp lines? I agree tho, I won't have the peak either, but by the time I hit 40, I most likelywon't get my line up as sharp.Originally Posted by Im Not You
I don't know why it's associated to something as being urban and for youth.
When I'm 40 I'm not going to be going around rocking a widow's peak
