First off, I want to say I have an amazing barber, and I absolutely love her.

But, she is traveling. Originally she was supposed to travel tomorrow (Jan 1), so I planned to get my haircut today, but her flight changed.

I have a specific haircut...not "normal" and maybe slightly complicated, or at least it needs to be done well or else it could look like shit. Kind of a mohawk fade (ish).

I will be way overdue by the time she comes back, so looking for a reliable alternative while she's away. I live in Central Harlem but my normal barber is in UES, so I'm open to traveling a reasonable distance if the barber is quality.

Edit: If it wasn't apparent, I have trust issues with barbers...how many people know their barbers' travel schedule? So I am skeptical of walking into a barber shop without knowing more.
