Word to this! My old barber would literally rest his junk on my shoulder. I'm talking when I was a little guy, way back in the day. #$@ still bugged methen.
 
- Putting nuts too close to the arm rest

- Giving ice pick sideburns that have been played out since 2000

- Taking a break right before your turn
 
i've only been once in the past 5 years or so..


and it was annoying having to guide him through the process.


i'd rather do it myself.
 
Thinkin they know the length to cut your hair better than you do....hate when boys stop me in the middle and ask if i'm sure i don't want it shorter

- When they straddle your knee to get the front of your edge up

- Nuts on the elbow

- Putting their hands all over my face, like @!#%$ come on now
 
When they got some funky smell on their fingers like what the hell wash your damn fingers after every customer
 
Talkin on the phone

Nuts right by my arm

I think you can agree with me then when I say some barbers plain suck at doing 'fros.
who you telling. back when afros was the *#*@ i had went to go get a shape before going to arkansas. the joint was bomb when i hopped out but wheni got home and washed it. the joint looked like i had slept on the right side of my head for the last 50years
smh.gif
worst part was that i couldnt go the nextmorning and ask dude to fix it because we got on the plane later that night. never again, never again

Ay check this out tho..that is a collection of pet peeves amassed over the years with trying different barbers. Not sayin that's what the one I go to does,though I tried a new one today which inspired this.

My barber always overcrowds his schedule.
He says come at 7, then calls back a 6 45 to say come at 7 30-8'*$$, then i get there at 8 and its still 2 people in front of me
mad.gif

I be ready to cry when i walk in and its 7 people in the shop.
Mind you he owns his own shop and hes the only barber in there.


Cant agree with the 2nd one though.
My barber gets GOD-LIKE with clippers when hes high.
I encourage him to smoke before he lines me up, hell ive paid my man in blunt form before.

My cousin is my barber though so anytime he does anything improper i make it well known that that crap wont fly.
