Hello, I'm Jake. As an Asian American male living in New York, I've noticed that it's nearly impossible to find a good place to get my hair cut.
That's not a knock on the quality of NYC barbers and stylists-- short Asian hair is just impossible to manage. It's thick. It grows in many different directions. It sprouts out and sticks up.
I decided to compile a list of a great places in New York to get a haircut, in the hopes that it helps a fellow Asian dude look clean.
