Had a Monday that almost made me quit barbering

Last week I had a guy come in for a simple fade and he kept moving his head every 2 seconds while I was on the blend. After fixing it 3 times, I ended up buzzing him down to a 1 all over and he still complained. Then my next client showed up 30 minutes late smelling like cheap cologne and expected a full discount. Made me wonder if other barbers ever get a day that just drains all the joy out of the chair for a bit.

One Tuesday last month I had three guys in a row ask for skin fades with wet hair and then complain about the result. What helped me was keeping a small fan in my station so I could dry hair faster and get a clean blend without the excuses. Man, some days just test your patience but you push through.

Wait, wet hair for a skin fade is actually better though, not worse.
