Default Barber Shops In Grande Prairie

I'm half black and barbers often find it difficult cutting my hair if they are not familiar cutting black people's hair. I usually get my hair cut at Brotherz Kutz in Calgary but I won't be in Calgary for a few weeks.

Does anyone know if there are any barber shops in Grande Prairie where I'd be able to get a good trim and decent fade?

Try the Central barber shop on 100th street and 100th Ave. They are the only old school barbers that I know of.
Otherwise a place like Tommy Guns might be your best bet.

Glad to hear that place is still open. When I lived there almost 20 years ago that was the place to go.

Either way you know what they say about a bad fade.

Don't worry it'll be gone in a week.

Thanks for the advice, I'll be checking out Central on Sunday.

Hahaha! I might be tempted but I just wouldn't look right while growing it out.
