I also quit going there during the pandemic even though I loved my stylist. The owner and others were making fun of a guy’s eyebrows being “out of control” right after he left one time I was there, and it turned me off even more. The prices also changed many times, and I wasn’t sure what they even meant at one point with weird names. I switched to the Hive and have been very happy with them.

The main thing I remember was that because the perpetrator hit people in the head from >1000 feet he must have been a highly trained sniper, probably military. As if you could fire over 1000 shots into a crowd at any distance and not hit people in the head.

I didn't get into an argument about it because I was halfway through a haircut and didn't want to have to get up an leave halfway through, but it was a pretty stupid take and I think he was doing mental gymnastics to steer the conversation toward anything other than "how's it working out to let every nutjob buy 20+ rifles?"

You know the deal, it's too soon, stop trying to take advantage of a tragedy to try and do anything about our gun problem, meanwhile it'll always be too soon to talk about mass shootings because there will always have been one last month.

Edit to add: the standing around with a shotgun about COVID shutdowns didn't surprise me too much. Bummer though because it was a convenient location for where I was living at the time.

Edit 2: on second thought I think the shotgun posing was an Instagram post, separate from the protest that other people have mentioned

Yeah for that one I was stuck in the house for 4 days w the only coffee I had some tiny packet of grounds you had to boil and allow to settle before drinking. Ooooffff. Stopped laughing after that at those people who clean out the grocery store the night before a storm.

Someone posted the law here. If there’s a pedestrian signal and that signal has the stop sign while the drivers have a green light you DONT have the right of way. Read up and educate yourself b4 you type.

Edit: ofc they deleted their lengthy comment that was wrong and downvoted me haha. Fool

I remember when they closed during the pandemic they rallied outside with “make hair cutting great again” signs. I’ve also heard some other things about the owner, that I can’t recall. So I believe he’s not liked, but everyone else at the shop is fantastic.

Edit: it is really expensive there though, but I’ve trusted them with my thinning hair the most.
