My new coloring book is live! My love of Coogi sweaters inspires it. Also inspired by my days in the psych ward, where coloring is a therapeutic practice. NOT THERAPY. Therapeutic. Important to make that distinction

Short hair can be expensive for women as well.

I feel these prices are for making up for inconsistent customers or poor marketing/location.

Lets say on average they do ten cuts a day at $55 this is $143k a year before tips on a five day work week. (May need to check my maths im tired)

Wow...
I used to get my hair cut at the barbershop because it was less expensive and higher quality cuts for a Black woman.
These costs are wild.
I haven't been to a Black barbershop since 2022 when I started my locs. Locally, I could get a cut and tip 100 percent for that. As I did.

Obama committed possible war crimes, and folks elected his vice president as president. Yet, somehow, Kamala Harris has to eat shit for Biden's support of Israel...
