    Came in with no appointment and got sat down with Gabriel. This guy is magic with the clippers, seriously. The haircut was great, but also what was super impressive was how fast and easy it seemed for him. We were halfway through the cut in 10 minutes it felt like, which is just proof of his talent. Beard, taper and trim on top. Gabriel got me right. 🫡
