Thoughts on the most reliable barbershop to get a fade on a Sunday?

House of Fades in Corpus right next to Chapala Grill is where I typically go. Theres a few good spots in Kingsville, but the House of Fades here has messed up my cut more than Id like to mention

hmm. truth be told most of the time I was in K vegas we were under HPCONC-, so I either just had really long hair or I went to the on base barber José, who actually did a pretty decent job. Not open sundays though i dont think.

Gulfway barbershop, king's barber, or platinum cuts (I think? just off of yorktown) in Corpus all do a decent job. The fade at king's is excellent but they're not great at cutting the rest of it. great people though. 2 of the 3 former Marines.

Holy balls, 70 5’s in 12 flights? Or are you including all Sims? ?

lol nah. all of contacts. that being said just doing a good brief and having your knowledge down will usually bring in 2-3 5s per flight. If i got less than 2 5s a flight I was usually pretty annoyed at myself. You can also make some great money instruments. a well flown approach is unambiguously a well-flown approach.

I'd like to know what percentage of your class got jets.
Thank you.

I dunno why you would drive all the way to Corpus for a fade

I go to Just a Cut right outside the main gate, military discounts on Tuesdays, ( I go Tuesdays but they are open Sundays) never a line, and they never messed me up.

Here to plug for José, too. Decent cut and for the price you can’t beat it

This is an age old debate. You’re not supposed to worry about grades but everyone does. In primary my onwing kept telling me I was doing well and I felt pretty good about how I was performing. At the end of contacts I compared grades with my roommates and realized I was not at all on track to select what I wanted. I worked a lot harder and by crushing instrument sims I wound up with jet grades.

You’re supposed to always give 100% but it’s not that realistic. It’s human nature to wonder how you’re doing compared to others in a competitive environment.

Did you end up selecting jets
