Halfway through a skin fade on a Friday afternoon at my chair in Boise, the guy jerked his head when his phone buzzed and the trimmer caught his ear, so I stopped, cleaned it with a styptic pencil, gave him a free beard trim to make up for it, and now I always tell guys to put their phone face down before I start, does anyone else have a line they say to keep clients still?
