Speak for yourself I quit caring about my appearance a long time ago....

We are speaking in general here. There are exceptions to everything in life

Gotta tell your barber from the gate... "don't push my shyt back."



My Puerto Rocks with them razors tho... ... I used to go to a barber that used the razor... had my shyt like a damn Ginsu.

But as others have mentioned, the sharp line is only meant to look desirable toward a certain demographic. the suits in corporate really don't care about that shyt. they don't really even understand it. the corporate women sometimes do, tho.

And I'd argue that a super sharp line with the conked out waves can look threatening in corporate. You'll never see a government official with a super sharp line and the Murray's waves. ... Obamas hair naturally waves at the times, but he's not conking it out with a sharp line ... closest was detroit's old mayor... hope he's doing OK.

The crack boom.

THe late 80s and early 90s had nikkas sharpening up their lines. Then it turned into another monster.

Man I remember one time when I was in high school, we had a barbering school...and one day I needed a cut...(see where this is going?)....so I go to one of the student barbers to get a cut and shape up...and I had got cut a few times before so was thinking it was all good...so one of the football players a lineman or something...big ass dude gives me an even steven...but when we got to the shape up this nikka took it back to Africa...I'm sayin' there was a line sittin' on top of my head in the middle lookin' a line that you use to separate states, towns and cities...needless to say I was rather embarassed and made him give me his scully and rocked around school all day until I got my hair cut close to bald..and you could still see where he fukked up at...

shape up was lookin' like...

I prefer fades with my shape up is all... the lines is cool, sharp and crisp but the fade just finishes it for me...

i haven't got faded for years... i might possibly have to see if they do look better.. i haven't had one since i cut off my box.. i just don't want to be looking like this

Ask for low fade and your box should be safe.

I use to rock Caesars all the time and just got tired of it. I've been rockin a taper fade for a few years now with semi long hair and no shape up to my hairline.
