[rating:0] Zero stars for this place.
Today was the second time I came to this location. Still in the experimental phase.
The first time I got a simple haircut, not too short, so it’s easy to manage and hide imperfections. However, I felt it was done a bit too quickly to be done right, but I let it go.
Today I went in for a fade, and the barber wanted to close soon. I told him I’d leave and come back another day, but he insisted that I stay, so I complied. I asked if the quality of work would suffer because he wanted to leave, and he said no.
He started working—the quickest fade I have ever received, probably faster than even the military high and tights I used to get. I asked again if he could please make sure everything was clean because it was very fast. He looked and handed me a mirror. What was visible looked okay, so I left.
When I got home and did a more thorough check, I found some large patches of hair behind my ear that were missed. I had requested, politely, for him to double-check, so that was disappointing. How do you miss such a large area?
I blame myself for trying someone new. I should probably stick to my regular barber shop on Jamaica—”Best Barber Shop”—which I have reviewed positively before. Those barbers always take good care of my hair. They are a bit far, so I wanted to try this neighborhood place, which is hidden and not very visible unless you know about it.
Lesson learned the hard way: it’s best to stick with your regular barber. Now I have to use my own clippers to fix up these patches and clean up the areas left uneven.
