I write this with more disappointment and genuine fear and bewilderment over anger. These guys are thugs. Those tough looking photos on their site? They believe it. To the point: None of the barbers in either of their two locations wore masks on the day I went there.
The Asbury location was where I started. I went in, mask on, sat down and had a friendly chat with Tommy. He started laughing hard and i thought geez he's gonna breathe on m....wait. This guy's not wearing a mask. I turn and NObody in the place is. I ask him why nobody's wearing a mask (which is mandated by the state for hair cutters). He smiles, takes his hands away and says, "it's a free country. You can leave if you want." I was shocked but I just left. I sat in the car and started sharing it on social media. They came out and sat on their motorcycles staring at me. I drove away, waited a while then came back, hoping to get a pic of these morons. Vinny came running out and gave me his best Jersey, "you gotta problem, bro." This guy has a temper; I remember him going AWOL on a customer last summer. He starts giving me the whole "free country, rights, blah blah" I yell at him that a relative just died of this. That's the truth. I also said i know 15 other people who have had it. "Come here, come in, bro" ahhh, no I don't want to. He grabs a thermometer and starts clicking it, "here ya, no what it says? You're an a---." Then Tommy comes out says "crack his head open." (Really?) We start yelling at each other and I realize that i left my own mask in the car, so now we're all yelling at close range, they both egging me with, "come on bro, I'm right here." Yea, right here - IN DOWNTOWN ASBURY, The last place you'd expect to find 1- an extreme ignorance for what isn't even just in this country, it's around the world. I asked them if they thought this whole thing was a hoax. "yea, and you're a sheep." uh huh. So... the whole world is just one big conspiracy. As I said from my own experience, it's real. 2- To basically give me and any customer the finger and impose your politics - and lack of consideration -for health and safety on me. You want to say be ignorant on your own time, that's your right When I'm your customer, paying you, in a public place, you give me the same respect I gave you when I called to tell you I was late. 3- Giving the finger to the state mandate and every other hair salon that abides by the guidelines. Especially when the Gov. opened hair salons to give you thugs a means to earn a living! which brings me to 4 - why would you risk getting fined or closed down in a time when so many people are out of work? What's that gonna prove? I drove by the other location and four barbers in there were also not wearing masks. btw - neither were customers in either location. Obviously, this is some kind of unwritten agreement between these hells angels wanna bes and some customers who also think that because it hasn't happened to THEM, it's all just bunch of fake news.
I'm more disappointed than angry. Idiots like this are the reason why numbers are climbing in NJ again. Imbeciles: it can't all be fake news. The house party in Jackson, the one in Middletown with numerous cases. That's all phony????? I guess when you're big and tatted, that warns off viruses.
No, ya know what? I am angry. Im incensed that these motor cycle thugs would impose their politics on me. Here's an idea: Make your shops a private club. charge a moron membership and have all the fun ya want. While youre operating as a public service, you abide by the rules whether you like them or not. Especially when dealing with a service that requires close contact. EVEN if you respected me enough to wear that bandana around your neck that you keep there in case the cops come, you could have put it on and been considerate of me.
And that's their game, folks. They all wear bandanas in case they need to put them on for the police or anyone who tries to take a picture. I asked them, "If you're so tough and don't care, why are all your guys going next door for lunch wearing their bandanas over their faces? He called me a sheep I called him a coward. A coward who is emboldend to say "I'll do what I want" to customers, the state, the public at large in Asbury, can't even have the strength of his convictions to go else where and wear his dumb bandana. Why? Cause he's a sheep in thug's tattoos.
This mob is a disgrace to the city, the state and the country who are all trying to get our lives back.
Do you selfish, ignorant meatheads think this is fun???? I HaTE wearing a mask. I hate having my life restricted. But I just do it. period. read more
