Tripps Barbershop

"This was not a great experience but it’s complicated. I was a walk-in around 10:30 on Saturday. They had a new, young barber cut my hair and he was clearly nervous and inexperienced. I’m all for helping someone learn and I’m fairly patient to allow them time to figure things out but this cut went on for 2.5 hours. I asked for a mid fade and a faux hawk on top about 1-1/2” long. Not once during the entire cut did he blow off the cut hair so I have hair all over the place. Many of the other barbers were watching him struggle and ultimately fail. I feel bad, I know he was trying and one of the barbers even walked over to help talk him through the process but it didn’t help. The top is uneven, choppy and nothing what I asked for. He only asked for $20 as he could see I wasn’t happy. I think the cuts typically go for around $40-50. I gave him $40 as he did spend multiple hours on my head so the effort was there, but he needs to learn to ask for help and definitely spend more time working on his craft. Some of the other cuts I saw walk out looked great though. Which is why I knocked it up a star."
