Fresh off the clippers
“Dex gave me the cleanest fade I’ve had in ten years and somehow it still looks right two weeks later.”
“The hot towel shave is the best forty-five minutes of my month. Sal talks baseball, I fall asleep.”
“Booked online at 8am, in the chair by 9. My son gets his first cuts here now too.”
