Fucking shit barbers opposite The Lane I was in town and spotted this barber shop when I was walking past 'End' today and thought i'd give it a try since time was getting on and I was pushing my chances of getting into eldon barbers. It was the absolute worst attempt at cutting someones (my) hair that I've ever seen. Maybe they only get charvs and old people wanting bare blades all day long but this chappy, called Stephen, who was slightly camp and middle aged with a look of confusion about him who by the standards of my shit luck, just happened to stand up and offer to cut my hair. First off he gave me a number 3 around the back and sides but he seemed to use the razor like a fucking paint brush.. as if he needed to use as much of the paint as possible on the biggest area he could. I thought my hair was going to end up in a cone. This turned out ok really, considering. Next he cut down one side of my hair with the scissors after I told him I want it 'cut about 1.5cm shorter and that I like it choppy/messed up'. Maybe he though 'Ok, this motherfucker wants me to mess him up'. He started cutting down one side, in horizontal cuts.. hair still quite dry and put it this way, if it wer 100 candles on a birthday cake, this breathless bastard only managed to hit 10. Next, he did about 3 vertical cuts down the otherside! Moving on he decided he wasn't quite done with the back and sides so he used the razor again to do absolutely nothing else for 5mins. "Is this short enough?" From here I had to practically tell him where to cut, in which direction, how much and whether or not to wet my hair (I'd said a few times 'you'll need to wet the whole lot). As soon as I seen it was kinda ok I stopped him in fear that he was going to gring my head into a post. What a cunt!! Don't go there.
So basically, you meant this as a warning, which is laudable, but it's actually just a testament to how shit you look now??? Good stuff
Re: Fucking shit barbers opposite The Lane Why did you not stop/advise him when he was cutting? were the mirrors not working???
Haha that's dangerously close to my work, I walk past there quite often and half the time most of them are just stood outside looking bored with one terrified looking customer inside.
A guy I used to play rugby with dads own its, proper shady as fuck!! Its nearly as bad as the barbers in jesmond, 2 fucking fish wives talk more than cutting hair, took me about 50 mins for a trim!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Crown (best in Newcastle imo) is right next door to it, yet you chose this dodgy establishment? Is there something wrong with you?
It was a case of 'yay theres a barbers.. lets go in otherwise everywhere is going to close'. I never go down the big market and don't know of anywhere tbh. ps. to the clown asking why I didn't advise/stop him. - Would you walk out of a barbers with a head of hair that was half cut? As for advising him.. read my post you stool sample. pps. I think i did walk out with a head of hair that was half cut/vandalised. I suppose it was a dead giveaway with the sign saying 'haircut £6'
i pay 6 quid and always get a decent job done of it. that barbers is the best ever by the sounds of it
You'd expect a bit of a haircut though would you not? :fart: My local barbers is only £6 and they're fine.
