Makes the whole experience a lot easier!
In many countries, each barber charges a different price, this lets you choose someone with experience for more money or pay less for inexperience.
Here you pay the same and it seems new and experienced barbers are mixed together.
I had the unlucky fortune of getting an inexperienced barber.
Seems Gould trains people or hires people who can only cut one hairstyle, as displayed in the pictures. Short back and sides with clippers.
The barber I got can't cut longer styles and had very little experience, which he confessed to me. He kept asking me how to cut something then not actually doing. He was being very slow and cautious that I just accepted it as it was. Then combed my hair bizarrely at the end and left it wet ... I thought he was preparing to blow dry it. I was lost for words and didn't want the confrontation, so I paid and left.
He was friendly but you need to be able to cut a range of basic hairstyles at a barbers, I'm not there for the conversation.
I will never return, not just to this but any Gould brand. Clearly they don't vet barbers for experience.
For people who do like short back and sides. I recommend you just buy clippers and do it yourself. First goes will look bad maybe, but it's not a hard haircut to master. Save yourself the $20, don't give these cheap barbers like Gould money.
