Nice barbershop canāt complain until I got cut by Wasim.
Listen I tried to refrain from writing this review because Ive had good experiences up until now but when looking at the mirror pisses you off every-time you see it, it gets hard.
I have 4C hair, this means that all kinds of people get scissor-happy when they see your hair. Despite this the barbers of Famous cutz have been respectful and always did a good job, which is why I was a regular. Each time I would say, donāt touch the top and they respect that - for this reason Iāve kept a healthy full head of hair with a strong hairline for years.
I misbooked, and was paired with a new barber Wasim who appeared uncomfortable with my texture. Not wanting to rebook, and after he pled, I stayed. I told him not to touch the top, he said āI just want to remove the fuzzies.ā I told him to stop. By that time the damage was done.

Ā Ā Ā Read moreThis is the only place on earth where I get a hair cut! I always leave feeling better than when I came in - more stylish, younger, and handsome. The only thing that varies, which seems to correlate with the day of the week when I go in, is how good-looking I feel. On Mondays, I'll leave feeling like Cristiano Ronaldo. On Tuesdays, like Chris Hemsworth. On Wednesdays, like Brad Pitt. On Thursdays, like Hugh Jackman. On Fridays, like Idris Elba. Saturdays are a little different, because I'll leave feeling more beautiful than handsome, like Scarlett Johansson. I don't really have a preference for a particular day, it all depends on my mood. But whatever I decide, it's always a...
