man sounds insufferable. Most of the joy of having a good barber is being able to gab and catch up and share stuff you’re into. Does he ask you questions or does he just talk? Are you paying him for a cut or a sermon? A good barber knows how to chat. It sounds like this man doesn’t have social skills.
If you’re that in love with his cuts, I would just ask him some probing questions instead of sitting there and having to listen to it or outright disagreeing with him. I did this one time with a Qanon uber driver and it was very satisfying, but have to admit it probably wasn‘t the time or place given I was hostage in his car. “Wait, why is Beyonce eating children? What’s the point?”
That being said I totally get the desire to stay the hell out of it given he’s the one with the sharp objects whirling around your eyes and neck.

Have you ever heard that thing in NYC about barbers? Apparently you shouldn’t share that information with anyone because the next time you go to see them they won't be able to see you. Not 100% sure if that tracks ATM but I love my barber. I get a haircut at least once a week. (if I have the time once every five days) I keep a tight fade and because it’s so short it grows fast. A good haircut and beard trim is hands down one of the best feelings in the world. Fresh haircut right before the weekend? *Pop Smoke voice* I feel invincible

a few weeks ago my barber told me “aye just hang in there man, you got it bruh” and for some reason that shit was so profound.

a study issued last month found that dancing is the most effective way of treating and mitigating depression. Walking, therapy, and yoga also outpaced SSRIs. and if you're saying 'oh this was probably funded by Big Dance', there's no evidence of that and if you're saying 'that's just what a Big Dance shill would say', well honey you're right
