Not sure what I was expecting as a black man in Seattle, but Rudy's Cap Hill location is not the place to go if you have black hair and need a buzz cut and a shape-up. The staff was really friendly, but I can't recommended their services.

My guy went over my head ONE time, leaving patches all over. I had to ask him to go over it again to get out some patches, which he was so kind to do, but there are still patches, which I will have to get out myself.

The shape-up was terrible, which I will have to do myself as well. See photo.

On top of that, my guy didn't have time to buzz my beard. When I booked my appointment online, the website said "whole head, one length". Apparently the bottom half of your head doesn't count. It only takes 5 minutes to buzz a beard if it's all one length with no fade. The website did have a beard trim option for $10 extra but it said that was with scissors (not what I'm looking for).

Bad experience, although I was really hopeful because everything about the business screams of inclusion and positively. I guess it's a vicious cycle: they don't have much experience cutting black customers' hair, which leads to us getting bad cuts there, which makes us not go back, and the cycle repeats.
