Had a client in Austin ask for a full skin fade with a straight razor finish last Friday.

It was the smoothest cut I've done in months, and he tipped $50 on a $35 service. Anyone else seeing more requests for that old-school razor detail lately?

Oh man, that "straight razor finish" is the real deal! I had a guy come in last week asking for the same thing, and you're right, it just looks and feels different. It's like the final touch that takes a good cut to a perfect one. I swear people are starting to really appreciate that level of detail again. It's not just a haircut, it's an experience, and they're willing to pay for it. That's awesome your client showed love with the tip too!

My barber in Chicago says his straight razor appointments are up almost 40% this year.
