Cuttin’ Up adapted by Charles Randolph-Wright
In barbershops across America, more history is taught than in any classroom. Haircuts tell tales—a departing soldier wants to ship out sporting a new fade, young men with dreadlocks brag about women, or a father christens his son with his first trim. The barbershop is a community, and its denizens are the storytellers of their time.
