I have been growing a beard for awhile. This is the first time I have ever done this. There have been times when I don't shave for awhile but never have I really let it grow out. Mainly for the reason my employer had a no facial hair policy.
Well I made the decision to do it a few months ago. Since I've never had facial hair I wasn't to sure how to shape or trim it. I kept my neck clean and shaped the face part some. I just let it grow long. I eventually used a trimmer because it was getting real long. only me being a rookie it became clumpy in spots. I then decided that I needed to find a barber who did beards. Well in this day and age there are not a lot of barbers around.
Before I went on my GR trip I had mentioned to Megan that I was looking for a barber.
The day before we left she told me that she knew of a barber shop in GR but that it was in the hood. She asked me if I would be afraid to go to it. No I wouldn't be afraid I told her. When her and I got to GR she did a little clothes shopping and then she took me to the barbershop. I loved the place.
It was all brothers up in there. I haven't patrond to many black owned business'.
It was awesome. I got a real shave in the hood.
The only thing I was uncomfortable with was when the barber was using the straight razor on me. I think the name of the place was razor sharp. Next time I go to GR I'm going back. The shave was only $5. I like inexpensive.
