Mr Flattop

Mr. Flat top
I am known as ClipperGuy. I should not be surprised to learn that there is a Mr Flat top. I know this because I met him at a show recently. I think his real name is Paul. I am not sure and it does not matter. I can not imagine calling him anything else. He IS Mr. Flat top. He wears a flat top. He cuts a lot of flat tops. He cuts them very well He had an album of pictures to prove it. Next time I am in MA I am to make a trip to see him and have him cut a flat top for me. I have his contact info if you want to go see him. Let me know. Please tell him that ClipperGuy sent you. Mr. Flattop @ Barbers Nook II 79 Main Street, Webster, MA

Rodrick Samuels

Rodrick Samuels
“It is time to put your man pants on” This is my favorite quote from Rodrick Samuels. Rodrick owns Profile Barber Institute in Charleston, SC. He trains and mentors to young people coming up in out business. Apparently this is a phrase he uses often to inspire students to step up to their responsibilities to themselves, their craft and their community. I like it. I can see him saying it. Rodrick is a talented and caring instructor. He taped a few educational videos for Andis while we spent time together at a recent industry event. Nearly all the taping was done in single takes. He is a true professional.

I am doing a class/presentation with Roderick next week in Charleston, SC. I am sure we will rock it together.

Check out Roderick's Andis YouTube vid:
