Specifically, go see Jordan Ashley. Left unchecked, my hair can grow into a terrible nest of fluff and curls. It’s not pretty. Most stylists don’t really know what to do with my hair and come up some pretty bad ideas. I can’t believe tried the faux-hawk so many time before I realized it wasn’t working.

Not so with Jordan. He does a great job every time. I’ve used him for cuts and for chemical relaxing and he does a fantastic job. He also colors my girlfriend’s hair and is truly an artist. Also, super reasonable prices, which is always nice.

Listen, I know what you’re thinking. “The thrift store? Clearly no one as stylish as Mitch gets that way from secondhand clothes!” If my experiences with thrift shopping were still limited to what I saw in places like Santa Cruz and the clothes not even the hippies wanted to wear, I’d be inclined to agree with you.

However, I’ve discovered that when you go to secondhand stores in the wealthy neighborhoods, you tend to find some pretty fantastic discarded clothing.

Yes. I know this place is a makeup store, and that their men’s section is tiny. But they sell this stuff called “Firefighter Plus” that works wonders on razor burned skin. It also apparently makes your beard finer between shaves, which is a bonus.
