Today was the first haircut and beard trim of the new year. Here are the BEFORE images from this morning...

And here is an introduction to my bearded barber: Jeremy Root-Ferguson, proprietor of East 50 Barber Shop and Shave Parlor in Carson City, Nevada.

This was my third time in Jeremy's chair. He has just moved into a new, larger space and is growing his business by word of mouth. Jeremy is a jewel of a barber, a real treasure who knows how to deal with a big or small beard, listens carefully, and executes his craft with passion and enthusiasm. Here is the evidence of his work, and you can decide for yourselves.

At my request, Jeremy took off two full inches of the lower part of my beard -- I saw it fall onto the cape -- to round it out. I'm pleased as Punch. Thanks, Jeremy!
