Enoch’s Barber Center

Do you see a barber with a mullet and say to yourself, «That guy knows a good hairstyle! I should 100% get my haircut by a guy with a flat top on the top and a jheri curl in the back. How could a man with that hairstyle NOT be an excellent judge of hair cutting.»
Then this is your barber shop.

Be careful of Kevin. If your from up North or not from the right ethnic group you will get unexpressed hostillity. I’ve been there maybe 6 or 7 times and always get this cold uneasy sense. He never initiated conversation I realized after awhile. That was My last visit. I thought he is a time bomb ready to explode. WOW this guy is creepy his the long hair and beard even creepier.

For a great flat top ask for the older gentleman. Top notch. Same price I pay back in Canada.

This place is great. If you want a simple cut or if you’re looking for something a little more complicated, they can do it. It reminds me of the barbershops my dad used to take me to when I was a kid. The interior is very neat and very clean and the barbers are extremely nice. Everyone seems to know the customers and the other people here. It’s a very casual and friendly environment.
Finding a place for a good cut is difficult when you move to a new city. This place is the one and only place I have used. Kevin cuts my hair and he does a great job.

The owner, Kevin, is a nice guy unless he doesn’t like you for some reason. While he may have misunderstood what I said one day about the Occupy people demonstrating at a park nearby (I meant no insult!), he is not beyond having some fun, IMO, at the customer’s expense. By that I mean that my last cut after about 8, or so, cuts was by far the worst. I don’t know if he did it on purpose, or if it was just the same kind of poor judgement he demonstrated by not blending in my cowlick anywhere near as well as my former retired barber did over time? I feel sorry for Kevin as he never came across to me as someone who loves his work, again, like my former barber did. I went from a «cheerful time» at my former barber’s shop with fun conversation to someone who is offended way too easily, IMO. For example, I said to Kevin very diplomatically after about 5, or 6, haircuts where it still looked like «a bowl was put on the top of my head» near my cowlick: «Maybe it’s the way I’m combing my hair…» and he cut me off in a «huff», and smiled saying «Yes, it is.» His body language, outside of his smile, said he was offended, even though I tried to blame myself, and then he quickly moved on to cutting my hair. He got offended again the last time I was there when I brushed my hair with my own brush near the end of my haircut. The only reason I did it was to avoid what appears to me to be a plastic «cooties brush». I say it that way because he doesn’t keep the brush in an antiseptic solution, like my former barber in SC did with a comb. He just quickly runs it under cold water as he uses it from one head to the next. While I never got head lice or any other problem from it that I know of, here is what the Mayo Clinic says:
— Brushes are a «less common» way of transmittal, but it can happen. Just watching that brush being used without barbicide on other customers while I waited turned me off, but I didn’t dare say anything to Kevin, or he’d be offended. I’m hoping that Kevin being easily offended is a temporary thing, and that he starts keeping all hair instruments he uses in a «Barbershop Barbicide Fungicide Virucide Glass Jar» =
?
Life is too short to be easily offended about anything,
Peace, Kevin
