What Happens When You Get a Haircut From the Barber With the Worst Online Reviews?

Would you ever patronizing a local business with some of Yelp’s worst ratings? Certainly not. And neither would we. But one guy took a risk went to Alex the barber.

And Alex had one of the lowest rating of all the barbers in New York City…

A Typical Guy

Most guys don’t take enough time to pamper themselves, but Taji was in desperate need of a haircut. His eyebrows and beard definitely needed some TLC too. But instead of going to a total pro, he went looking for help in the most unusual place ever.

Taji hadn’t had a haircut in three months, so his hair and beard had become quite unruly. He claimed his eyebrows were growing a little crazy too. So he needed to get everything done.

Doing the Research

Before Taji went to Alex Barber, a father/son barbershop in New York, he read the shop’s online reviews. One of the comments stated they had shaved a little boy’s entire hair off when all the parent wanted was a standard cut. And it only got worse from there.

Mom-Unfriendly

One reviewer claimed that the owner of the barbershop had seen her come in with the stroller, but didn’t offer her any help at the stairs. To make things worse, he was also pretty rude. So Taji wasn’t sure what to expect.
