His day starts off badly, and things get even worse at the barbershop. His barber explains that he is sick, which in itself poses a serious problem. However, he decided to continue with the haircut. His hair was full of curls and he sat down for a cut and immediately knew something was wrong. Within minutes, noticeable chunks of his hair fell to the ground. The barber doesn’t seem to notice his mistake and continues cutting. The last time he saw himself, his uneven haircut was unmistakable, with one side much shorter than the other.
“I don’t know, don’t worry, I’ll figure it out. Okay,” he said, repeating the barber’s words. “So he’s going to keep fixing it. This side gets shorter, this side gets shorter.”
The barber tries to “fix” her hair, but the situation escalates further, and she ends up with a mohawk. Frustrated and disappointed, @rudeboyfit demanded that everything be shaved. Adding insult to injury is the barber’s reaction. Instead of admitting his mistake, the barber blamed him for coming in with curly hair and his “sleepiness.” Now that he has become a gaslit, he is surprised and wonders: my hair is curly. What are you talking about, brother? ”

Despite feeling wronged, he paid $50 for the cut, decided never to go back, and asked for a referral to a new barber in Miami.
“Guys, I’ve been experiencing fades for years and I don’t care about it. It’s because I lack professionalism,” he says in response to some comments.
“No,” one commenter said. “No excuses. Time for a new barber. A sacred relationship is broken.” “He tried to warn me that he was ‘sick,'” one person joked. “And I’m tired of him,” he replied.
Another commenter wanted to stay on the issue. “Everyone is saying, but Cut looks great. That’s not the point. He definitely needs to be dumped. Trust your instincts.”
