Went in and saw Russ (older looking barber). Asked if he could help me think of a new hairstyle and he had no suggestions whatsoever!! Showed him a picture of a hairstyle that had unique, slightly messy on the top styling due to products & asked him how I could achieve a similar look. He merely suggested "use gel" rather than telling me the best way to style my hair by comb, blow dry, etc. Doesn't know how to taper properly.
