Thread: Great shave and a cut 20 bucks in a mall.

Thats right i just had the best experience in a barber chair i have ever had. I have been going to this barber for about a year now. He is from egypt and works in monmouth mall in eatontown nj. I used to walk into this place all the time tell them i need a haircut and go to whoever was next. One day brian was there he must had just started and he said sit down il hook you up in the most broken A#@ english i ever heard. I sat down and brian went to work. He gave me a great haircut trimming all around my hairling with a str8. Obviously a disposable. I continued going tio bryan for my haircuts every other week. I have brought some freinds in and now they all use him. A buddy of mine and i were there two weeks ago and he gave us both a quick shave using his disposable and canned edge gel shaving goop. I had already given him a str8 of mine a few months back witch he shaves himself with. In nj its illegal to use conventional str8s. Today i brought in my own cheapy boar hair brush and my c-mon 5/8 wedge just touched up on my escher. He had some realy nice soap that he got from an old turkish barber he said he used to workl for in patterson. Well let me tell you guys something this guy gave me a great shave. Two full passes in every direction possible. He was able to put that razor in plases and angles i would never even dare to try. This guy is good. As a matter of fact his skill level is so high i think its a shame hes in a mall and not a classy shop somewhere. I think he ultimately wants his own gentlemans barber shop but he is young and im sure money is falling out of the trees on him. I really hope this guy ends up in a nice barber shop some day. I will never let anybody cut my hair again. O yea and then to top it off he pulls out thread and starts puytting it in his teeth and then did some crazy a%# thing to my eyebrows to trim around them. I have never seen that before. All this for 20 bucks. WOW!!!! cant wait for 2 weeks from now to go back. Just have to figure out what razor to bring.

for some reason none of the teenagers in beirut shave at home. You can do a full search and would never find a mach 3 4 or 5 (is the 6 out yet???) they all go to the barbers. It was in beirut that i first met the straight razor had never seen one since i grew up in montreal canada. The shave these guys give are amazing. I was converted in a matter of seconds. Although they also use disposables and the thing with the floss string they do that 2 (amazing stuff) i use a disposable sr8 but my keen kutter is on the way will keep u updated. By the way , i'll be joining the facebook group 2
