I am picky when it comes to my flat top. Infact it has been a long time that a barbers flat top lasted more than a day. I usually have to shave it off when I get home. Its probably been close to two years since I had a good cut. I had to go to Kent to get it. I wont name the failures because thats not what I do, but they all lied and said they could do a flat top. Some even advertise. Helen didnt lie, I am still wearing it. In fact on wednesday I am going back for a shave and clean up. Awesome barber
