text: I love getting a shave. Its a personal treat for myself that I try to get once every other month.  I've gone to this V's down the street from me about 4 times for a cut and shave and only twice have walked away happy and those were my first two visits and it just kept getting worse. \n\nTrying to get an appointment on Friday or the weekend is a wasted effort but then again so is trying to make one for any other time. I thought I knew the the drill with this place by now. Close at 6pm no shave appointments past 5pm all of which I can understand for a good cut and shave. \n\nSo today with my girlfriends birthday weekend around the corner I call in and make my appointment at 5pm for a cut and shave knowing full well I had a less than great experience on my last visit. But a boy has a right to dream I guess. I leave work early to be there at 5 mins early only to be told to sit and wait a half hour which sucks but its not the first time they have failed the appointment game for me thus the 5 mins early. But I think I'm getting my shave so I sit and wait my turn.\n\nAfter my wait they get me in the chair and give me the worst speed cut I've ever had. My scalp still stings 2 hours later from the buzzer being dragged through it. After the \"cut\" the barber (if you want to call him that) asks \"Did you want a shave too?\". Is it really that hard for someone to tell you up front they don't have time to give you a shave?\n\nI was kind of at a lost for words which wasn't a problem for him because he filled the silence with \"Cause I can buzz it off and save you a few bucks but we need to close our doors\". Knowing that I have a full schedule till the weekend and thinking it couldn't be worse than me doing it myself I made the terrible mistake of letting him \"buzz it off\" which is the equivalent of letting someone take an electric sander to your face. No oils, no soothing balm, no warm towel just some deep red scratches and a feeling of dejection. \n\nAll of this, my leaving work early 30 mins early, my wasted 30 mins waiting , my blitz of a hair cut and my 'not shave' with scars included cost me $31. Which is a $13 savings compared with my last visit. \n\nAnd that was and will be my last visit to V's Barbershop.
