    PSA: If your barber doesn't listen, when u get out of the chair go and book an appointment with the barber in the chair right next to him...he'll get the message.

    From one student barber to another, I respect what you're doing here man. Your cuts are dope and I hope you keep it up! One question tho, my semester just started and I haven't had much of a clientele here... any tips on how I can build on it and market myself more in the dorms? Thanks bro. You earned a subscriber on YT and follower on IG.

    • @KevvThaw
      @KevvThaw  Před 7 lety +4

      Tsetsenbat Mongol I appreciate that man! And I think the first thing you have to do and never stop doing is focus on the customer. Provide the best service compared to your competition. Secondly have an online presence so people feel like they can reach you easily. Also, business cards are ancient but effect, shows how serious you are. My business built itself because of how serious I am. People want someone who cares a lot about their hair. I'll expound on this in a video.

      I've never heard of a box combover, where I'm from that's not a thing. So I'd say no.

      Thebarberstable oh ok but does the low fade 1 on the bottom going up to a 2 makes sense to a barber or no?

      Yea that definitely should. That's not much of a fade though.

    Ok so is there a huge difference between a taper and a temple fade?

      Nah, it's just the semantics. A taper and a temple fade are pretty much the same thing.
