As a 31 year old Registered Nurse, I took a job in Baltimore, Maryland for nine months as a travelling nurse from Canada. Once I arrived in Baltimore, there was a one bedroom apartment waiting for me and set up by the travelling nurse company. Well, I needed a haircut before I started work. That was my plan to get a haircut in the states. So I basically looked at the Yellow Pages and just recognized that one of these haircut places was on a street that I recognized so I went there. Well, I walk in and I’m the only white person in the shop. Everyone was looking at me everyone I mean everyone it was a little uncomfortable at first but then I thought I just need a haircut. Well, it was the best haircut I’ve ever had in my life these women. This woman took me under her wing and literally I felt like a queen when I left that shop. Literally, the best haircut I’ve ever had even To this day and I’m now 62 never forget that experience I will never forget it
I would agree. But I always preferred black barbers when I wore fades. Problem was I had 3 different black barbers refuse to cut my hair. And several more treat me as if I was out of place by entering their shop. I was taught growing up to ignore skin color. But don’t be amazed at how many racist happen to be black.
@@brandonboykin8349 I doubt the reason for Black Barbers refusing to take you on as a client is because of Racism. The hesitation could of been that they didn't want to be responsible for you not being satisfied with the cut or maybe weren't use to styling straight hair. You didn't specify if the Barbers were old are young because experience does matters assuming your story is true. Some White people who are Racist themselves need a reason to claim Black people are just as Racist towards them as not to be judge ! 🤔
@@patriciawilson155 excuses excuses you hear them every day. Fact is I was turned away. If it had been the other way around it would be an international incident. I had my money out and willing to pay for a service from anyone. No matter of race.
As I white boy I only go to a black barbers over 40 years of hair cuts it’s not coincidence the best hair cuts I’ve ever had came from black men. They are masters of the fade and attention to the details!
It's in our blood research it blacks we're basically the only barbers in America in the late 1800's making really really good money until racism shut that down.
I’m white, and my two sons are mixed. I used to take them to a black barbershop when they were young. One guy was Puerto Rican. All three us would get hooked up. All of them killed it every time. Nobody talked about race, or bullshit . Respect, and skill is a universal language no matter our color.
As a hairstylist who specialized in barber cuts for more than 40 yrs, may I just say, "Awesome job!". Back in the day when I went to school we were taught to do every hair type AND how to use every tool. It does this old heart good to see young barbers as yourself branching out & not pigeon holing yourself. Keep it up & you'll go far. 💖💖💖
Also when you learn how to work with different hair types you tend to learn and pick things up quicker, It's similar to how people that speak different languages find it easier to learn more languages.
I accidentally walked into a black barbershop one time. I was pulling off my motorcycle helmet and my eyes were adjusting to the light - and everyone was staring at me. I said 'what's up?' and they went right back to talking. Got one of the greatest haircuts and shaves I've ever had - actually got several compliments! The only problem with that shop is that it stays so busy - people bring their whole families to get cuts, and it's hard to squeeze in one more person.
My son has always had a black barber… I don’t understand what the big deal is, this guy can cut hair amazingly…. I understand white and ethnic hair is different. But when you love something it shows in your work. ❤ Good job son 💯💯💯♥️
@@starlightrocks7 Eh I think you may be confusing the fact that I think white and black people are both equally guilty of assuming neither one can cut each-others hair type. I think it’s more about that then anyone caring about skin color. If I know a black barber can cut my kids straight hair then I’m totally fine with letting them do so. I could give two shits about their color…it’s how good a person is at cutting hair that matters.
I went to a black Barbers in London, the haircut was fine but honestly it felt like I had just crashed a private party .. Kev, I suspect you are more interested in your craft than the colour of people’s skin, I wish there were more people like you
Dude, I've been a hairstylist for many years, and I think you did an excellent job. I'm white and rivaled my black contemporaries when coming to bald fades. At first people were shocked I could do it. But I can tell you it's a God given talent that everyone doesn't have. As long as your passion is there, and want to do awesome haircuts, AND not mess anyone up, you'll be fine. Also educate the client about their hair. GOOD JOB !!!
Agreed! Amazing job! Back in the 90s I lived in the hood in a small town in Arkansas and a friend of mine and I showed up to a local barber. A nice old guy we knew. Didnt think about it. My friend said, “You go first.” The man turned me opposite the mirror during the whole cut. Then brushed me off and turned me toward the mirror. When the barber was done he said, “Hope you like it. I’ve never cut a white boy’s hair before.” By today’s style it would have been legit. Back in the 90s? When the look was like what you see on the show Friends? I looked like the basketball player Darin Williams. Got so much shade! Haha The man said to my friend, “You next?” And my friend was like, “Nah..I’m good.” Haha
LOL the goal for ANY white person is to "rival" blacks at anything they create to feel superior......see Eminem fans......smh typical. Took you long enough we only started doing current hair haircuts since the 1980's.....(40 years).....lol
His later work is suspect , I see a BIG line no real blend … he needs to stop doing videos and go back to the drawing board.. I’m a real barber , that looks suspect. Anyone can cut hair , but it doesn’t make you a REAL Barber.
Believe me we people of COLOUR can manage white folks hair better than you can handle ours. No offence. How come? Because many of us have your type of hair. White ancestry. 😊
Excellent job! I’ll be 74 on Sunday, and was a hairdresser from my teens, into my 50’s. When you turned the camera on yourself, I was amazed at how young you look. I’m an old white lady that appreciates your talent. God bless you young man. You’re a great role model.
Same story here, only 64! Still addicted to hair. What a great cut. I clipper my husband and son but have never been able to get a real tight fade. Good instructions, thank you!
Mamm your not old because you're still allowing yourself to grow even in a field that you have mastered I say BLESS YOUR OPEN HEART AND MIND ALSO YOUR VERY SPECIAL SPIRIT LOVE AND PEACE TO YOU ALWAYS
But I wish barbers paid attention to different hairstyles for different ethnicities it’s pretty segregated right now and the biggest issue is because this idea that there’s nothing to learn cause “we’re all the same”
@simontilbey I started reading and stop f what you're talking about I can sum it up in 2 words "culture vultures" you're fascinated with us so you want to identify as 1 of us when you coyod never be ! You have no culture of your own you steal everybody else's from haircuts spaghetti tvs in cars all fly clothing styles etc etc if you were to be yourself you'd be just as your skin color BLAND foh go get a mullet and chill
True! My son inherited every single cowlick possible. Plus, it is very curly. Our "black" barber was the only one that could get his hair to look right. She was fantastic.
I love that one of his freinds got a haircut from you and it made him want to come. While adults are fighting over dumb sh*t, these kids are treating each other right. We could learn a thing or two.❤
You can't really blame the adults because they have been programmed by the powers that be you know the leaders of the world everyone thinks governments are against each other but they're all working together in harmony the US Russia China we're all on the same team it's just one big show to keep collecting all of your money just like racism the government creates it because they make trillions and trillions of dollars a year off of it they just watch us fight with each other while we get the crumbs and then they get all the gold and zero accountability
@@UhtredOfBamburgh. Yeah, but a damn good one! It’s hard to find these days. You go to some place, you never know what you’re going to get. It’s a very personal thing, you want your hair to look good! It starts with a good cut!
Don't know why you needed to make "everybody" a racial implication. You would never catch me doing that in a neighborhood full of people that aren't white like I am. Do you know how stupid I would look if I had completely straight hair and went into a barber shop in Greece and tried to subliminally complain that most of the barbers aren't experienced in working with completely straight hair?
@@razztasticreally ? I’m in love with my biracial grandbabies n my son in law is like my own son from another mama. So over these racial issues. God created all of us n last time I checked we all bleed red. Elderly mamaw here. ❤
@@razztastici don't think the OP means it like that. No one complained, it is true that not everyone’s hair the same and there has to be some differences in how you treat hair. For example, hair bumps can happen to folks who are not black, but people with extremely curly hair are more prone to them. I've heard white stylists say this too. The best ones know how to do everyone’s hair and the ones that I've found were recommended to me by other people of color who did have bad experiences with the way their hair was done. No need to be sensitive about race. Just because you want to ignore differences, doesn't mean they aren't there, but mental maturity would call for being able to acknowledge differences and still be ok with them.
When my husband and I were in the military, he went to a specific black barber on base. As did everyone. When that barber got stationed else where, I swear I thought a person died. So many sad faces. My husband griped about how bad his hair looked for a year until he found another old man off base that did an excellent job. He referred his friends and then that mans hole in the wall place got busy. We both left the military and moved away. He quickly found a barber. Talking about Paul this, Paul that. When I finally met Paul, I was shocked to find Paul was white. My white husband preferred black barbers cause he has a messed up cow lick and they did his hair right with that and the fade. It's all about skill but ethnic barbers deal with all types of hair textures which make them exceptional. Loved this video.
@michellec4919 not all barbars deal with all hair types. I'm sorry it is what it is. It's not a race issue. Equally not all female hairdressers deal with all hair types excellent to the ones who does
@@michellec4919that’s not true. Unfortunately I’ve taken my nephews for a haircut to a white barber and they said they don’t/can’t do their hair type. I found it very ignorant.
I loved how you talked us through his haircut. Thank you, I was wishing to find someone to get my haircut.. I've only have found one hair stylist..since then no luck..been cutting it myself. Now I'm 77 and having trouble with shaking hands.
@@ladyboss2383 It can be all about limited training and not having to deal w/ many clients that have a hair type they usually deal w/. I've been turned away from male barber shops for having long hair and they didn't want to deal w/ it. I'm also seeing a lady hairdresser in here admit she only had to do one afro cut in her 30 yr career. She nervously did it anyway and took her time. She was glad they had patience w/ her needing extra time and were happy w/ the results.
Celebrating the rich tapestry of humanity, recognizing that the essence of every person, irrespective of their skin color, contributes to the vibrant diversity that makes our world extraordinary.
I'm a white female, and had been to numerous white hair salons...never satisfied, and the price!! Recently went to a salon and they had a black hair stylist. Was hesitant at first, thinking she could not possibly know how to cut straight hair. Had no choice though and when she was done I could not have been more pleased. She did a fantastic job. Needless to say, I now do my hair with her and no one else. I love the way she does my hair!!
I’m a white female that works stupid hours and had braids for years done in an African salon… I loved their work, super cool ladies, so much fun, but then after three years of braids white women started yelling at me on the street accusing me of being racist, it became really disruptive, so I no longer go to my beloved African salon, they lost me as a client due to absolutely no fault of their own. Still makes me sad.
@@janedoe4471You should have more confidence in yourself and in who you are. They say imitation is the finest form of flattery. I wonder when that went away. The snowflakes are jealous. You lost a precious memory, experience and friends because you listen to others who don't know what they're talking about. Go back to your African salon, with your African friends and hair stylists and enjoy your hairstyle. Ignore the haters. ❤
Loved everything about this, especially the fact that the young man knew what he wanted, and you gave him exactly that!!! Your smiles, the two of you, warmed my heart!!! ❤
My Dad was a barber for 45+ years. He's gone now. You did a great job! Changing different textures & cultures is a hard thing to master. You should be proud. 😊
My bf asks me to cut his hair sometimes. I have a clipper set with the guards... I need to watch this video several times to learn his method of going from 1 to 2 and then blending! His explanation of guidelines was wonderful! It came out great!
Keep up the excellent work, young man.👏🏾 While an undergrad at OSU, I needed my hair done badly, yet knew NOTHING about the area. The only stylist in the shop I stumbled upon was white. Only black stylists had previously done my hair. I almost walked out, but she said she knew how to do black hair. I didn’t believe her & was terrified at the thought of how my hair might turn out… but my hair was in desperate need of service. She hooked my hair 🆙 like nobody’s business‼️🙌🏾
This brought tears to my eyes because 1. You are bringing all kinds of folks together and 2. That young man looked so handsome! Excellent work, my friend! 🥹🥹👍🏾
I’m an almost 50yo white guy. I’ve been going to the black barbershop across the street from my office for about 5 years now. I get the best haircuts I’ve ever gotten from those guys. There was a little bit of a learning curve on my part. I learned to not put pomade/gel in my hair before going and to come in with my hair dry.
Do you think a girl would be welcome there? I need short hair for medical reasons and am always afraid that i would be intruding, or might be judged. I should just go in there and find out, but it feels like i'd be crashing a fort 😂.
We were taught in cosmetology how to cut/color/ highlight different hair textures/ethnicities. It doesnt matter. Create a masterpiece, make someone look and feel better. Great job!❤
I'm a 76 years old white guy...I'm also a drummer. There is not a whit of difference between my art and yours. It's passion. So impressed...I don't care what kind of job you have...if your passionate about how you do it, you are an artist. BTW...when I say drummer, I mean I was a chemical lab technician most of my life and mostly an out of work drummer...the artist couldn't pay the bills but clearly you're gonna deliver the goods.
As a Black woman early Gen Xer, I was very moved by the talent of this young Black barber and the love of his craft and also for anyone who wants his services. I also was moved to see the smile and confidence of the young White teen smile and trust. I hope a friendship grow from that experience along with more customers. ❤❤❤ it all!
Amazing to see you in action. This is more of what the world needs right now. No wars looming. Just watching a young man get an awesome cut. Just chillin'. You are incredibly talented. No wonder he wanted to go to you. Lookin' SHARP!!!
I disagree with the hair is hair. My hair is very thick and curly, my siblings all have very thin hair. It takes forever for me to fix my hair & takes 4 1/2 hours to get it cut and colored. Obviously, my profile pic shows my “Karen” hair that is now right below my waist. My sisters can have their hair colored and fixed by the time I’m just starting to blow dry mine.
Great Job!! I’ve been cutting hair for 28 yrs now and the only thing I do when it comes to shear work is that I part the hair at the crown. I work from back to front. Once it’s at the length you want it cut and crossed referenced any stragglers, I repeat the process and cut the tips at an angle (depending on how defined you want the texture). It hasn’t failed me yet but there are great videos out there on performing texture cuts. Keep up the great work man bro 🙏🏼🤙🏼👊🏼
I have to admit that when you did the area around the neck and above the ear, then faded so far up, I was concerned it wasn't going to look good. However, I was VERY delightfully surprised with the end work! ❤ BTW, your scissor work was perfection! 😊
❤Please understand, not my style, I just happened on you. You knocked it out of the park!!! I am a 70 year old white female, been cutting hair most of my life. No formal training, You did a HELLUVA JOB!!! VERY IMPRESSED. If you can do this good of a job on straight hair, I will be watching future clips. GOD BLESS YOU, YOU TALENTED YOUNG MAN!
as a cosmetologist that loves to fade I have mad respect for this video. I try not to ever put a line into my fade so I dont have to work so hard to get them out and it is much harder on straight hair. Plus this young man has a medium texture that can really show scissor marks and clipper tracks. Awesome job.
I appreciate this video I'm biracial (mom black, dad white) I married a white man . We have two sons, one's hair is straight with a Lil wave to it, the other has curly hair like me. I'd send them both to you with no hesitation after seeing this video! Great Job!
Kids don’t see color or pass judgement. They just want to feel safe with their cut and styling. A haircut makes me feel good as an adult and confident. A new haircut as a kid made me feel invincible and for a moment the happiest person on earth. I’m glad you could feel that love. You are able to give someone confidence and a sense of conquering the world. We come to barbers in our best, and unfortunately worst moments. But we feel peace when we’re in either.
I went to a black hair salon when I was in high school next door to my parents' shop. I had long hair curl wavy past my shoulders I'm Caucasian/ Spanish decent. They did a excellent job all the time. They also used dark hair gel in my hair to slick it back that I've never used before I always used clear gel but it was terrible when it flaked. It looked like dandruff. I used dark gel all the time after that. Now I sell it in my shop 😊 I have a beauty supply shop😊
Hair oils work well for slicking hair back but they have no “ sticking power” .Mizani ( sp?) makes some products I’ve tried that are like a creamy gel and oil mixed together that have liked but I haven’t tried slicking hair back with it but it’s great for curls and controlling frizz that curly hair gets. Chi products make good oils also something Blackseed ciil that is lite creamy gel type product…. Sorry I can’t remember the names exactly…..getting old sucks but check them out if you get a chance
🗣️ Get the black hair gel by ecostyer, it doesn’t stain, flake or cause skin eczema! It’s so good ,you don’t need to use it every day, either. Thank me later! ❤
You are really an artist in your trade. The kid said he wanted more off and not in his face but you knew better than to start with that until he saw it. You can always take a little more off but can't put it back on! You said, " I just..." quite a bit which, I think, shows how humble you are about your skills. That moment of "I just" is where you instinctively know what to do that can't be taught but learned by a LOT of practice and intuition. You definitely have a gift! This doesn't even begin to talk about how much one haircut can do to bridge a gap to create some unity in the community. I don't consider myself old but even 35 or 40 years ago, it didn't even occur to me that I, as a white kid, could go to a black barber. Back in the day when I had hair, it would have been an honor to go to an artist like you. Keep up the great work!
Impressive!! My hubby went to a white barber ONE time. He didn’t get it, but you did!!! You do a great service with expanding your craft to meet the needs of all with short hair. Keep rising Son✨✨
I'm a 65 year old w woman that respected my 2 sons getting their hair cuts & styled for years as they were growing up and around that age. I gotta give you a thumbs up👍you did a great job, his hair looks really good, you did a lot of justice on his hair, and thats coming from a mom that knew how much a decent cut means to her boys... yes men take pride in their appearance as much as females and im proud of them feeling that way and know they take care about their hair. I'm glad to see you got a lot of hit's, keep up the great work and smile. HAPPY NEW YEAR! 🎈
My grandparents were barbers in Washington, D.C. and my mother was a licensed cosmetologist. I grew up watching cuts in my grandparents' shop. I really enjoyed your video. Great job! 💇🏻♂️💈
I’ve been cutting hair since I was 18. I’m 36 now and the day that my client said that her coworker thought her barber was black was the day I could say I would die happy. I literally waited forever for that compliment. I also had a Mexican client who thought that I was a dude and also color because I’m so good😂 awesome. Keep doing what you do and I can tell that you like it and that’s all that you need.
When you see the picture that the young lad had on his phone, it was the same haircut. So the barber was right on point. The Barber gave him what he asked for. 👍
Bro that was the nicest fade I've ever seen done and to do this on a white person's hair you have some very talented hands. I'm a white dude and I know how hard it is to work with because I have fine hair and the way you worked with his hair was amazing. Excellent job!!!!!
I am Caucasian but have African American textured curly hair. I've never enjoyed a cut and style as much as the one I received from a black barber. He was willing to take me right as the pandemic was ending when other shops were not open. I am so picky about my hair but this guy (Trevor) is now my permanent hair tech. I am usually the only white person in the shop and almost always the only female, but all make me feel welcome when I enter. He just about has me talked into a short cut for summer next year. My hair is really long and thick and pulls on my head. We will see but if I do, it will def be Trev!
If he says it's going to look good.... DO IT! He knows your head better than you do, because he can see it from ALL angles. Please stop listening to the voices in your head. That's just your ego being stubborn, trust me.... Mine does it too, but I'm about to go s.h.o.r.t. just as soon as I can find a pretty wig for when I " "miss the mess"!!!😂 Let him work his magic on you!❤
Good job! As a 40 yr hair vet, I watched and you were on point. Love doing fades . The young men will be clients for life and they will keep sending you more! ❤
Great Job! Your An Amazing Artist In Cutting & Styling Hair. May God Bless You! May He Continue To Bless Your Business To Grow. What Really Touched Me Is The Way You Treated This Young Man As A Human Not A Child! He Will Have Love & Respect For You For The Rest Of His Life! I Believe This For A Fact. I Remember All The Adults In My Life That Treated Me Like A Human And Gave Me The Time Of Day Just Like They Did With Adults. The Majority Of Adults Don’t Acknowledge Children As People, Or Even At All! You Did! You Got A Gift. Thanks For Putting A Smile On My Face And Touching My Heart! Take Care
This is not unusual anymore I am African American 🇺🇸 (black) For the last 5 years or more I have got my hair cut by white guys Orientals Indians And Spanish guys and even a woman!! I am so happy that barbers💈 are learning how to cut everyone’s hair instead of putting limits on where you can get a hair cut!!!
@@adamthompson7170 I had to Google fade and now I know what a fade is. Also I didn't know, that barbers cut hair - I thought they only cut beards. We learn every day. Enjoy your great looking fade🤗
@@piaogilvie8463 Have you NEVER 👎🏽 had the hair on your head cut?😲 How on GOD’S EARTH did you think that the barbershop 💈 only cuts facial hair? When you went to the barbershop to trim your beard 🧔🏽♂️ did you NOT see some of the other barbers cutting people’s hair on their heads??🙄
When you have kids seeing other kids great styles and cuts, and they want the same style, you are an artist for sure. You did an amazing job! I bet this had to be the best cut and style this young man has ever had! Thanks for sharing!
I'm a hairstylist 40+ year's, I was taught fades by my husband & his battalion (ARMY ) I still have my good & off days . From what I see, you can go shorter on top if you want, don't be afraid to take it off, you do an exceptional job explaining what you're doing, & the cut looks fanmail 💈✂️💈✂️💈✂️💈 Alot of people aren't aware that Cosmetologist are NOT taught clipper cuts ‼️ We are on our own ‼️
A great barber. Not everyone can cut hair. I have experienced bad haircuts. Nothing like a bad haircut, because you have to wait until it grows out. LOL
That was a great looking haircut and that kid is gonna impress the ladies at school after this! You're a great barber and I bet you'll be getting a lot more clients very soon!
Hairstylist of 22 years. You didn’t disappoint and you understood the assignment 😂 awesome work! I feel like I would have used the thinning shears on the top and sides to take the heaviness out, but that’s just me. This was great to watch.
Wow it's really sall AWESOME TO READ SO MANY POSITIVE MESSAGES IT TRULY INSPIRES HOPE ABOUT THE CONDITION IF MANKIND KEEP YOUR MIND ALWAYS OPEN TO RECEIVE THE TRUTH
Yeah. That’s just you. A person who can’t give a deserved heartfelt comment without adding “I would have done this and that ,but “that’s just me. “. Just can’t really give a deserved compliment. But hey, “that’s just you.”
Looks so good. Love the modern well cut look. I am an older white woman and admire how black men and women take such great care of their hair and skin. I often watch UA-cam videos of black women and girls getting their hair done. Great Job!❤ You have taken his look from a little boy to a young man.
That's odd cause when I went to school back in the late 50s that was one of the 1st things I was taught, even though I already knew how since my step-dad was a barber for many years, why I took up cosmetology.
Right. We didn’t learn men’s hair where I went to cosmetology school either. I had to teach myself and learn from others. Thank god for helpful people.
I used to go to a black salon for hot oil treatments after the salon I went to closed. I'm white as bread. Those ladies were so kind, and the gossip was juicy. lol
I hated cutting straight hair at Barber School. Like you said it could be very unforgiving if you don't watch what you're doing. I'm better these days. Love this young man's result!!! 🔥🔥💈 🔥🔥
You did a great job with his hair. My brother is a barber he has his own business and he has all types of hair that come through the door… Don’t worry about what anyone else says, you do you! Great job 👍🏽👏🏽
Beautiful timeless haircut. An ancient artform-- sculpting hair. Really enjoyed this video. You cut according to texture of hair and form of this young man’s head. Also you are humble as you say you are always learning!
This video should be retitled “Human boy gets haircut by another Human”.. as long as we keep talking ourselves into a divide, it will always remain that way. Aside from that… this man has extraordinary talent, and that boy looks fantastic with his new cut❤️!
Sh!t, I am a white female who is a licensed cosmetologist and I used to go to a black barber shop. They always did an amazing job on my long haircuts. Black or white it is about the craft you can create and there are some amazing stylists out there. All you have to do is just give them a chance!

Also when you learn how to work with different hair types you tend to learn and pick things up quicker, It's similar to how people that speak different languages find it easier to learn more languages.
I accidentally walked into a black barbershop one time. I was pulling off my motorcycle helmet and my eyes were adjusting to the light - and everyone was staring at me. I said 'what's up?' and they went right back to talking. Got one of the greatest haircuts and shaves I've ever had - actually got several compliments! The only problem with that shop is that it stays so busy - people bring their whole families to get cuts, and it's hard to squeeze in one more person.
I like that…”What’s up” 🙂
That phrase alone told them that you were chill. 😎
Right and not uptight 😊
@dakeys3342 I woukd have Said tickle tickle
As a mother with 2 sons. I suggest, make an appointment. Stay with your favorite person. 😊
Beautiful and
My son has always had a black barber… I don’t understand what the big deal is, this guy can cut hair amazingly…. I understand white and ethnic hair is different. But when you love something it shows in your work. ❤ Good job son 💯💯💯♥️
Well, you're one of the few that don't mind.
@@starlightrocks7 Eh I think you may be confusing the fact that I think white and black people are both equally guilty of assuming neither one can cut each-others hair type. I think it’s more about that then anyone caring about skin color. If I know a black barber can cut my kids straight hair then I’m totally fine with letting them do so. I could give two shits about their color…it’s how good a person is at cutting hair that matters.
@@Katya.Shishkyl24 White folks do not go to the barber shops in the hood unless they live in the hood, and that's a very small ratio.
What is "ethnic hair"???
@@BS-zt4xp Not straight hair.
Everyone needs a barber like this. A good cut makes you feel great!
I went to a black Barbers in London, the haircut was fine but honestly it felt like I had just crashed a private party .. Kev, I suspect you are more interested in your craft than the colour of people’s skin, I wish there were more people like you
What are you talking about "crashed a private party"? Do you have a problem because he mentioned white boys?

That's a talented barber!! Took this kids hair growth and what the kid wanted. Looked awesome! That's a professional right there!
Dude, I've been a hairstylist for many years, and I think you did an excellent job. I'm white and rivaled my black contemporaries when coming to bald fades. At first people were shocked I could do it. But I can tell you it's a God given talent that everyone doesn't have. As long as your passion is there, and want to do awesome haircuts, AND not mess anyone up, you'll be fine. Also educate the client about their hair. GOOD JOB !!!
Agreed! Amazing job! Back in the 90s I lived in the hood in a small town in Arkansas and a friend of mine and I showed up to a local barber. A nice old guy we knew. Didnt think about it. My friend said, “You go first.” The man turned me opposite the mirror during the whole cut. Then brushed me off and turned me toward the mirror. When the barber was done he said, “Hope you like it. I’ve never cut a white boy’s hair before.” By today’s style it would have been legit. Back in the 90s? When the look was like what you see on the show Friends? I looked like the basketball player Darin Williams. Got so much shade! Haha The man said to my friend, “You next?” And my friend was like, “Nah..I’m good.” Haha
LOL the goal for ANY white person is to "rival" blacks at anything they create to feel superior......see Eminem fans......smh typical. Took you long enough we only started doing current hair haircuts since the 1980's.....(40 years).....lol
Stop lying to him …. From the start he’s wrong… He went to high from the beginning that haircut is Amateur at best.
His later work is suspect , I see a BIG line no real blend … he needs to stop doing videos and go back to the drawing board.. I’m a real barber , that looks suspect. Anyone can cut hair , but it doesn’t make you a REAL Barber.
Believe me we people of COLOUR can manage white folks hair better than you can handle ours. No offence. How come? Because many of us have your type of hair. White ancestry. 😊
38 years in Cosmetology , excellent job! First time watching.
Excellent job! I’ll be 74 on Sunday, and was a hairdresser from my teens, into my 50’s. When you turned the camera on yourself, I was amazed at how young you look. I’m an old white lady that appreciates your talent. God bless you young man. You’re a great role model.
Happy birthday, Blueiz🎉
Same story here, only 64! Still addicted to hair. What a great cut. I clipper my husband and son but have never been able to get a real tight fade. Good instructions, thank you!
Yes. I’m 62. I was also amazed at seeing this barber was so young. Really talented. Gifted.
Happy birthday 🥳🥳
Mamm your not old because you're still allowing yourself to grow even in a field that you have mastered I say BLESS YOUR OPEN HEART AND MIND ALSO YOUR VERY SPECIAL SPIRIT
LOVE AND PEACE TO YOU ALWAYS
It doesn’t matter what ethnic group you identify with it only matters that you are a great barber!
It does matter be yourself he thinks he's Jason with the cut right situation he turns back into Logan and you go to jail
But I wish barbers paid attention to different hairstyles for different ethnicities it’s pretty segregated right now and the biggest issue is because this idea that there’s nothing to learn cause “we’re all the same”
@simontilbey I started reading and stop f what you're talking about I can sum it up in 2 words "culture vultures" you're fascinated with us so you want to identify as 1 of us when you coyod never be ! You have no culture of your own you steal everybody else's from haircuts spaghetti tvs in cars all fly clothing styles etc etc if you were to be yourself you'd be just as your skin color BLAND foh go get a mullet and chill
True! My son inherited every single cowlick possible. Plus, it is very curly. Our "black" barber was the only one that could get his hair to look right. She was fantastic.
@simontilbey you forgot Brown (me) and Green (Captain Kirk's Alien Honey)
I love that one of his freinds got a haircut from you and it made him want to come. While adults are fighting over dumb sh*t, these kids are treating each other right. We could learn a thing or two.❤
"friends "
You can't really blame the adults because they have been programmed by the powers that be you know the leaders of the world everyone thinks governments are against each other but they're all working together in harmony the US Russia China we're all on the same team it's just one big show to keep collecting all of your money just like racism the government creates it because they make trillions and trillions of dollars a year off of it they just watch us fight with each other while we get the crumbs and then they get all the gold and zero accountability
. MO by
its just a haircut.
@@UhtredOfBamburgh. Yeah, but a damn good one! It’s hard to find these days. You go to some place, you never know what you’re going to get. It’s a very personal thing, you want your hair to look good! It starts with a good cut!
Black barbers are the real masters. They can do everybody’s hair, while “ everybody” can’t do ours.
Don't know why you needed to make "everybody" a racial implication. You would never catch me doing that in a neighborhood full of people that aren't white like I am. Do you know how stupid I would look if I had completely straight hair and went into a barber shop in Greece and tried to subliminally complain that most of the barbers aren't experienced in working with completely straight hair?
You sound like a retard
That’s because your “hair” is probably ridiculous.
@@razztasticreally ? I’m in love with my biracial grandbabies n my son in law is like my own son from another mama. So over these racial issues. God created all of us n last time I checked we all bleed red. Elderly mamaw here. ❤
@@razztastici don't think the OP means it like that. No one complained, it is true that not everyone’s hair the same and there has to be some differences in how you treat hair. For example, hair bumps can happen to folks who are not black, but people with extremely curly hair are more prone to them. I've heard white stylists say this too. The best ones know how to do everyone’s hair and the ones that I've found were recommended to me by other people of color who did have bad experiences with the way their hair was done. No need to be sensitive about race. Just because you want to ignore differences, doesn't mean they aren't there, but mental maturity would call for being able to acknowledge differences and still be ok with them.
This is the result when you are a great barber. No matter who your client is, you always get the job done exactly like the client wanted.
Well, u know how it can be sometimes. I too, have had my hair cut in an all white salon. I know what u mean.
I agree. This guy can cut. Period.
Great job Kev
💖
What's wrong with the lot of you. ? The boy is almost bald. He is left with a moustache on His head.
When my husband and I were in the military, he went to a specific black barber on base. As did everyone. When that barber got stationed else where, I swear I thought a person died. So many sad faces. My husband griped about how bad his hair looked for a year until he found another old man off base that did an excellent job. He referred his friends and then that mans hole in the wall place got busy. We both left the military and moved away. He quickly found a barber. Talking about Paul this, Paul that. When I finally met Paul, I was shocked to find Paul was white. My white husband preferred black barbers cause he has a messed up cow lick and they did his hair right with that and the fade. It's all about skill but ethnic barbers deal with all types of hair textures which make them exceptional. Loved this video.
All of us deal with all different hair types, had nothing to do with being black or white....smh
@michellec4919
not all barbars deal with all hair types. I'm sorry it is what it is. It's not a race issue. Equally not all female hairdressers deal with all hair types excellent to the ones who does
@@michellec4919that’s not true. Unfortunately I’ve taken my nephews for a haircut to a white barber and they said they don’t/can’t do their hair type. I found it very ignorant.
I loved how you talked us through his haircut. Thank you, I was wishing to find someone to get my haircut.. I've only have found one hair stylist..since then no luck..been cutting it myself. Now I'm 77 and having trouble with shaking hands.
@@ladyboss2383 It can be all about limited training and not having to deal w/ many clients that have a hair type they usually deal w/. I've been turned away from male barber shops for having long hair and they didn't want to deal w/ it. I'm also seeing a lady hairdresser in here admit she only had to do one afro cut in her 30 yr career. She nervously did it anyway and took her time. She was glad they had patience w/ her needing extra time and were happy w/ the results.
What an excellent barber, and you made that young man feel confident about his cut. Gifted & talented. God bless you 🙏🏼
Celebrating the rich tapestry of humanity, recognizing that the essence of every person, irrespective of their skin color, contributes to the vibrant diversity that makes our world extraordinary.
I'm a white female, and had been to numerous white hair salons...never satisfied, and the price!!
Recently went to a salon and they had a black hair stylist. Was hesitant at first, thinking she could not possibly know how to cut straight hair. Had no choice though and when she was done I could not have been more pleased. She did a fantastic job. Needless to say, I now do my hair with her and no one else. I love the way she does my hair!!
Of course they are professionals they learn how to cut all types of hair. It doesn't matter what color you are.
Facts
I’m a white female that works stupid hours and had braids for years done in an African salon… I loved their work, super cool ladies, so much fun, but then after three years of braids white women started yelling at me on the street accusing me of being racist, it became really disruptive, so I no longer go to my beloved African salon, they lost me as a client due to absolutely no fault of their own. Still makes me sad.
Crazy thing is. In hair school straight hair is covered more than any other hair texture.
@@janedoe4471You should have more confidence in yourself and in who you are. They say imitation is the finest form of flattery. I wonder when that went away. The snowflakes are jealous. You lost a precious memory, experience and friends because you listen to others who don't know what they're talking about. Go back to your African salon, with your African friends and hair stylists and enjoy your hairstyle. Ignore the haters. ❤
Loved everything about this, especially the fact that the young man knew what he wanted, and you gave him exactly that!!! Your smiles, the two of you, warmed my heart!!! ❤
@Hello there, how are you doing this blessed day?
My Dad was a barber for 45+ years. He's gone now. You did a great job! Changing different textures & cultures is a hard thing to master. You should be proud. 😊
My bf asks me to cut his hair sometimes. I have a clipper set with the guards... I need to watch this video several times to learn his method of going from 1 to 2 and then blending! His explanation of guidelines was wonderful! It came out great!
@@piratessalyx7871. Blend, blend, blend.
@@piratessalyx7871 That’s the hard part, blending.
Keep up the excellent work, young man.👏🏾 While an undergrad at OSU, I needed my hair done badly, yet knew NOTHING about the area. The only stylist in the shop I stumbled upon was white. Only black stylists had previously done my hair. I almost walked out, but she said she knew how to do black hair. I didn’t believe her & was terrified at the thought of how my hair might turn out… but my hair was in desperate need of service. She hooked my hair 🆙 like nobody’s business‼️🙌🏾
This brought tears to my eyes because 1. You are bringing all kinds of folks together and 2. That young man looked so handsome! Excellent work, my friend! 🥹🥹👍🏾
Yes, I see two beautiful people at 8.40.
I love to see stylists that can do a diverse range of hair types. That’s true passion and mastery of one’s craft. Well done, sir!!❤❤
Adorable kid and adorable barber. I’m a grandma, I know adorable! I’m also a retired dog groomer, and I appreciate good scissor work. Great job!
@Hello there, how are you doing this blessed day?
Great job. I know the young boy will not only feel ‘hip’, but also more confident. 🥰
The kid looks great! What an incredible change, just wait till his classmates see him!! The right haircut can give you confidence!!!❤❤❤
I’m an almost 50yo white guy. I’ve been going to the black barbershop across the street from my office for about 5 years now. I get the best haircuts I’ve ever gotten from those guys. There was a little bit of a learning curve on my part. I learned to not put pomade/gel in my hair before going and to come in with my hair dry.
Pretty tight homes slice
Do you think a girl would be welcome there? I need short hair for medical reasons and am always afraid that i would be intruding, or might be judged. I should just go in there and find out, but it feels like i'd be crashing a fort 😂.

Awesome! Approach.
Everyone likes to look good and this young man is at an age where it means a lot. You are a good man and a blessed, talented barber.
The fact that Kev is out here challenging himself and getting better is crazy. Bruh ain't playing no games❤
That cut fits that kid perfect. Great job by the barber.
How did I get here? LOL. I was watching house building then... But I kept watching. You did a really nice job on that young man's hair. Kudos.
We were taught in cosmetology how to cut/color/ highlight different hair textures/ethnicities. It doesnt matter. Create a masterpiece, make someone look and feel better. Great job!❤
I'm a 76 years old white guy...I'm also a drummer. There is not a whit of difference between my art and yours. It's passion. So impressed...I don't care what kind of job you have...if your passionate about how you do it, you are an artist. BTW...when I say drummer, I mean I was a chemical lab technician most of my life and mostly an out of work drummer...the artist couldn't pay the bills but clearly you're gonna deliver the goods.
Im a passionate bummer

As a Black woman early Gen Xer, I was very moved by the talent of this young Black barber and the love of his craft and also for anyone who wants his services. I also was moved to see the smile and confidence of the young White teen smile and trust. I hope a friendship grow from that experience along with more customers. ❤❤❤ it all!
Amazing to see you in action. This is more of what the world needs right now. No wars looming. Just watching a young man get an awesome cut. Just chillin'. You are incredibly talented. No wonder he wanted to go to you. Lookin'

He looks great!
You did a wonderful job.
You could tell the boy was very pleased, which is what matters most.
All black hair isn’t the same. Hair is hair, it’s your skill that makes the difference 👍🏾🔥
Hair is absolutely NOT hair!
@staciagrant4786 hair is absolutely is hair!
Everybody in my immediate family has a different hair grade. Black Americans are a unique mix of everyone in the world. Not many people like us.
All (insert word or phrase) isn't the same. It's the color of the emojis that make the difference. ;)
I disagree with the hair is hair. My hair is very thick and curly, my siblings all have very thin hair. It takes forever for me to fix my hair & takes 4 1/2 hours to get it cut and colored. Obviously, my profile pic shows my “Karen” hair that is now right below my waist. My sisters can have their hair colored and fixed by the time I’m just starting to blow dry mine.
Great Job!! I’ve been cutting hair for 28 yrs now and the only thing I do when it comes to shear work is that I part the hair at the crown. I work from back to front. Once it’s at the length you want it cut and crossed referenced any stragglers, I repeat the process and cut the tips at an angle (depending on how defined you want the texture). It hasn’t failed me yet but there are great videos out there on performing texture cuts. Keep up the great work man bro 🙏🏼🤙🏼👊🏼
I have to admit that when you did the area around the neck and above the ear, then faded so far up, I was concerned it wasn't going to look good. However, I was VERY delightfully surprised with the end work! ❤
BTW, your scissor work was perfection! 😊
Being a woman I usually only watch women's hair videos, but that was interesting to see. Still looks crazy complex so good job.
❤Please understand, not my style, I just happened on you. You knocked it out of the park!!! I am a 70 year old white female, been cutting hair most of my life. No formal training, You did a HELLUVA JOB!!! VERY IMPRESSED. If you can do this good of a job on straight hair, I will be watching future clips. GOD BLESS YOU, YOU TALENTED YOUNG MAN!
Oh My Lord! You are so freaking talented! You are going to be a famous stylist Kev. You already are! Awesome! I Love it! You Rock! 🏆
The stylist looks so young to have mastered that high level of technique. It's a great cut.
as a cosmetologist that loves to fade I have mad respect for this video. I try not to ever put a line into my fade so I dont have to work so hard to get them out and it is much harder on straight hair. Plus this young man has a medium texture that can really show scissor marks and clipper tracks. Awesome job.
My mother was also a cosmetologist. When she went to school you learn how to do all hair. 😅
It's a bad haircut young man looks really nice I hope your parents like it too good job
Good 👍🏾
I appreciate this video I'm biracial (mom black, dad white) I married a white man . We have two sons, one's hair is straight with a Lil wave to it, the other has curly hair like me. I'd send them both to you with no hesitation after seeing this video! Great Job!
Kids don’t see color or pass judgement. They just want to feel safe with their cut and styling. A haircut makes me feel good as an adult and confident. A new haircut as a kid made me feel invincible and for a moment the happiest person on earth. I’m glad you could feel that love. You are able to give someone confidence and a sense of conquering the world. We come to barbers in our best, and unfortunately worst moments. But we feel peace when we’re in either.
AWWWWW HE'S ADORABLE...GLAD HE LIKED HIS HAIR NOW THE WHOLE CREW WILL BE COMING TO YOU
I went to a black hair salon when I was in high school next door to my parents' shop. I had long hair curl wavy past my shoulders I'm Caucasian/ Spanish decent. They did a excellent job all the time. They also used dark hair gel in my hair to slick it back that I've never used before I always used clear gel but it was terrible when it flaked. It looked like dandruff. I used dark gel all the time after that. Now I sell it in my shop 😊 I have a beauty supply shop😊
Wow! That's interesting that now you make a living in that industry. Cool stuff.
What is dark hair gel, who makes it I am stylist in New Mexico and never heard of it but it sounds interesting to me
yea the black hair gel just ruined the pillow case....
Hair oils work well for slicking hair back but they have no “ sticking power” .Mizani ( sp?) makes some products I’ve tried that are like a creamy gel and oil mixed together that have liked but I haven’t tried slicking hair back with it but it’s great for curls and controlling frizz that curly hair gets. Chi products make good oils also something Blackseed ciil that is lite creamy gel type product…. Sorry I can’t remember the names exactly…..getting old sucks but check them out if you get a chance
🗣️ Get the black hair gel by ecostyer, it doesn’t stain, flake or cause skin eczema! It’s so good ,you don’t need to use it every day, either. Thank me later! ❤
You are really an artist in your trade. The kid said he wanted more off and not in his face but you knew better than to start with that until he saw it. You can always take a little more off but can't put it back on! You said, " I just..." quite a bit which, I think, shows how humble you are about your skills. That moment of "I just" is where you instinctively know what to do that can't be taught but learned by a LOT of practice and intuition. You definitely have a gift!
This doesn't even begin to talk about how much one haircut can do to bridge a gap to create some unity in the community. I don't consider myself old but even 35 or 40 years ago, it didn't even occur to me that I, as a white kid, could go to a black barber. Back in the day when I had hair, it would have been an honor to go to an artist like you. Keep up the great work!
Impressive!! My hubby went to a white barber ONE time. He didn’t get it, but you did!!! You do a great service with expanding your craft to meet the needs of all with short hair. Keep rising Son✨✨
I don’t think the color of the person matters people, it’s the skill of the craft. You could be solid gold and cut like poo. This guy is great
I'm a 65 year old w woman that respected my 2 sons getting their hair cuts & styled for years as they were growing up and around that age. I gotta give you a thumbs up👍you did a great job, his hair looks really good, you did a lot of justice on his hair, and thats coming from a mom that knew how much a decent cut means to her boys... yes men take pride in their appearance as much as females and im proud of them feeling that way and know they take care about their hair. I'm glad to see you got a lot of hit's, keep up the great work and smile. HAPPY NEW YEAR! 🎈
My grandparents were barbers in Washington, D.C. and my mother was a licensed cosmetologist. I grew up watching cuts in my grandparents' shop. I really enjoyed your video. Great job! 💇🏻♂️💈
I’ve been cutting hair since I was 18. I’m 36 now and the day that my client said that her coworker thought her barber was black was the day I could say I would die happy. I literally waited forever for that compliment. I also had a Mexican client who thought that I was a dude and also color because I’m so good😂 awesome. Keep doing what you do and I can tell that you like it and that’s all that you need.
thought you were colored??? yeah, keep your comments to yourself probably.🤣
Sweet. Stick to cutting hair because forming sentences might not be your “thing”.
When you see the picture that the young lad had on his phone, it was the same haircut. So the barber was right on point. The Barber gave him what he asked for. 👍
Bro that was the nicest fade I've ever seen done and to do this on a white person's hair you have some very talented hands. I'm a white dude and I know how hard it is to work with because I have fine hair and the way you worked with his hair was amazing. Excellent job!!!!!
all of the barber schools have white mannequins to work on. it's not that wild.
bro stop lying. its only white ppl in these comments and they never get edge ups 😂 so ofc they think this shit is okay
I am Caucasian but have African American textured curly hair. I've never enjoyed a cut and style as much as the one I received from a black barber. He was willing to take me right as the pandemic was ending when other shops were not open. I am so picky about my hair but this guy (Trevor) is now my permanent hair tech. I am usually the only white person in the shop and almost always the only female, but all make me feel welcome when I enter. He just about has me talked into a short cut for summer next year. My hair is really long and thick and pulls on my head. We will see but if I do, it will def be Trev!
If he says it's going to look good.... DO IT! He knows your head better than you do, because he can see it from ALL angles. Please stop listening to the voices in your head. That's just your ego being stubborn, trust me.... Mine does it too, but I'm about to go s.h.o.r.t. just as soon as I can find a pretty wig for when I " "miss the mess"!!!😂 Let him work his magic on you!❤

This is not unusual anymore I am African American 🇺🇸 (black) For the last 5 years or more I have got my hair cut by white guys Orientals Indians And Spanish guys and even a woman!!

A great barber. Not everyone can cut hair. I have experienced bad haircuts. Nothing like a bad haircut, because you have to wait until it grows out. LOL
The cut came out nearly identical to what he wanted. Plus, the way you styled it gives him the option to do what he wants with it in the mornings.
*I was thinking he did even better than the picture; less formal.*
That was a great looking haircut and that kid is gonna impress the ladies at school after this! You're a great barber and I bet you'll be getting a lot more clients very soon!

You hooked little DUDE up! Great Job!! 👏🏽 💙🔥💯💯💯
Looks so good. Love the modern well cut look. I am an older white woman and admire how black men and women take such great care of their hair and skin. I often watch UA-cam videos of black women and girls getting their hair done. Great Job!❤ You have taken his look from a little boy to a young man.
As a person with non afro hair I was intrigued to watch and really enjoyed it! Cool haircut from an excellent hairdresser. Great Job Mate! 💯
He made this young man look amazing 👏 wow
This Barber is meticulous with his hair cut making it look so awesome and smooth. I am enjoying the styling technique!! Cool!
A good barber knows what he's talking about... Guideline, blend in, etc repetitions allow you to create the best hair cut.
God bless you abundantly.
You seem like a genuine, nice, personable, talented young man...good vibes in your career!!
I’m a licensed cosmetologist. When I went to school we didn’t learn any barbering. I had to learn on the job. Much respect!! Excellent work!!
That's odd cause when I went to school back in the late 50s that was one of the 1st things I was taught, even though I already knew how since my step-dad was a barber for many years, why I took up cosmetology.
Right. We didn’t learn men’s hair where I went to cosmetology school either. I had to teach myself and learn from others. Thank god for helpful people.
I used to go to a black salon for hot oil treatments after the salon I went to closed. I'm white as bread. Those ladies were so kind, and the gossip was juicy. lol
I hated cutting straight hair at Barber School. Like you said it could be very unforgiving if you don't watch what you're doing. I'm better these days. Love this young man's result!!! 🔥🔥💈 🔥🔥
@Melissa-dd8uo Me too... 😳
You did a great job with his hair. My brother is a barber he has his own business and he has all types of hair that come through the door… Don’t worry about what anyone else says, you do you! Great job 👍🏽👏🏽
Now thats what you call a brilliant barber. This was so therapeutic to watch.

Beautiful timeless haircut. An ancient artform-- sculpting hair. Really enjoyed this video. You cut according to texture of hair and form of this young man’s head. Also you are humble as you say you are always learning!
what a wonderful world this would be if we all lived as one! Elevating and empowering each other all the time! One love!🥰
That cut was perfect. The way you textured the top made it look even better than the picture. Great job.
This video should be retitled “Human boy gets haircut by another Human”.. as long as we keep talking ourselves into a divide, it will always remain that way. Aside from that… this man has extraordinary talent, and that boy looks fantastic with his new cut❤️!
IKR! It's been a tired trend to mention "the race" of a person. Let it go!
It's time for me to broaden my horizon, Black Barber it is..Thanks for sharing, job well done.....
You're an artisan of your craft. This was a joy to watch
What an excellent cut for this young man……and what a talent this barber possesses to put together such amazing hair styles. LOVE this look!
That little boy is a brotha ❤✊🏾. Looking good, man!
He looks like hell date us blk women when he's older ❤
I’m guessing you’ve just got another loyal customer to add to the books 👊🏽
Proud of you Kev never mind the haters bro you doing your thing
Sh!t, I am a white female who is a licensed cosmetologist and I used to go to a black barber shop. They always did an amazing job on my long haircuts. Black or white it is about the craft you can create and there are some amazing stylists out there. All you have to do is just give them a chance!
I sat down at my husband's barber too. That old man impressed the heck out of me!
@@paulygirl7748wat, he made you look the same as your husband
Old white woman here, love this kids hair cut. U are very talented, God bless you. Work of art.
