I took my boys to the barbers two days ago, while we were in the car the two of them insisted they wanted hairstyles. It was all they talked about as we drove on and on
They didn’t even ask me if I was on board with the idea.
I didn’t say anything
I was just enjoying their back

And forth
We got to the barber’s shop
I said “We’re here”
The older son said “No Dad, we don’t want to cut our hair with this dude”
I said “What? Why?”
“He is a hard man, Dad, his hand is tough and he always makes me cry when he cuts my hair” explained the younger one
Oh wow!

This was a barber I invested in six months ago when he wanted to set up
I had a lot invested in his success and I always barb my hair with him.
The children had a point though, he barbs as if he was an Apache warrior out to get your scalp
The barber had seen us and he walked

The barber had seen us and he walked
Towards us to say hello
I greeted him and told him I will come around to have a chat with him later
I drove to another barber’s shop and we all had our haircut.
I drove back to see the barber later in the evening
I told him what his customers said
He got on the defensive

Immediately
He said “They are children sir, what do they know? You should have told them to get down from the car sir”
I told him they have a right to a decent service just like I do
I admonished him to adopt a better barbing technique.
He didn’t get the point, he felt I betrayed

Him by taking his business elsewhere
That was all he said over and over
I apologized and left
