Losing Sight of the Basics?

I was getting my haircut at a local barbershop, and a phone call came in. This is what I overheard from my barber-

Yes sir!

Yes, this is a barbershop.

No sir, we just cut hair, just boys and men, we dont do any of that foofey stuff here

That’s when it hit me why I liked coming there. Sure the haircut might not be as nice as the foofey places who charge $35-$75 for a haircut [they charge $16] but that’s why I liked it. It caters to what I was expecting from the experience without any additional fluff.
