What happened to your barber? That's too bad he's not going to be around. You seemed to like him and never mentioned getting a bad haircut.
It's the barbershop itself more than anything else. The place is a high end style shop where they do hot towels and I've even gotten a face massive with a small hand held machine once. You get a small card where after about 6 haircuts you get 1 free. I do tip them whenever i can (especially when I'm eligible for the free haircut). It's run by some Russian Jews and I've even had a shot of vodka in there one Christmas (the good kind too).
I've mentioned on the thread that i liked overall how the guys in the shop cut hair, so i let anyone in there cut my hair. I'm the type you just cut my hair...I'll chit-chat but not a whole lot. They know this is how i roll, as I've been going there for a few years now. So the guy i got yesterday usually likes to do some shortcut stuff. My hair is very simple and easy to do.
So what happened yesterday i didn't like? The dude tried to hustle me for a tip, when what he really did wasn't tip worthy at all. In fact, in all the people who cut my hair in there, the guy i got is the one i like the least.
So i did give him the tip...and I'll never go back there again.
I was thinking about not going back before yesterday as since they're in the Village, they've raised their rates a few times and have become unaffordable. It's interesting because i remember seeing them pretty busy and when i went in there it was very dead...for a Saturday night.
