I need to post more barber content.

Watching your parents grow older changes something in you. One day you’re watching them build a life, and the next you’re watching them talk about retirement, downsizing, relocating, slowing down, and closing chapters they spent decades writing.

They approved a 2-year rent freeze in NYC! I love this for them!

You want to know how you can help protect someone’s happiness? By helping them protect their peace. Be honest with them, communicate with them, choose consistency over confusion, and never make them question where they stand with you. It develops where trust, respect, and emotional safety exist.

Brazil, Dominican Republic, NYC, Orlando, Tokyo, New Orleans, Houston, and Hawaii all in the next 5 months.

One of the greatest indicators of emotional maturity is consistency. Grand moments may capture attention, but it is steady presence, intentional effort, and reliable character that cultivate trust over time.

It’s the fact that 2020 came in and literally wrecked everything…

My hot take… #RHORI will replace #RHONJ

These people out here smelling like Underground Railroad trashcans.

Surround yourself with people who don’t sympathize with your pain, but who have the wisdom to encourage your heart, the faith to pray when yours feels weak, and the courage to stand with you until what once overwhelmed you no longer has the final word.

Hey Siri, play “No one Mourns the Wicked”

We are rejoicing with exceeding gladness. We are one step close to that POS presidents number getting called.

So, now that Clive Davis is dead I only have one question… Brandy Rayana Norwood, what was on the note? 👀

Not every issue needs another opinion. If you’re not helping move it toward a solution, you’re only adding to the noise. Less talk. More action. Happy Monday

Stop confusing directness with disrespect. Assertiveness isn’t about making people do what you want. It’s about communicating your needs, your boundaries, and your intentions with confidence, then letting their response tell you everything you need to know.

Nadie va a venir a rescatarte. El heroe de tu historia eres tú. Deja de esperar que alguien te salve y empieza a salvarte tú mismo. Ya es hora de salvar el día.

Understated. On purpose.

Top Tier!

Happy Fathers Day

Moved away. 1,893 miles away to be exact. Went from the city of beignets, jazz, gumbo, second lines, and pralines to the City of Angels.

Ariana Grande concert tonight. 🔥

It’s amazing what happens when interest is mutual and effort is intentional. Today’s plans were an easy yes. 🌊

Started at 9:00 AM directly after a 5 1/2 hour flight from Orlando, and a shower, did 14 cuts and working on 2 braids and a loc re-twist next before I call it a night! Ya boy is beat, but it was so worth it! I love what I do. 💪🏽💈🔥 Tomorrow, I rest at the beach!

Duh. That's why it's illogical to vote for any Conservative/Republican/MAGA. Even the right's golden god admitted it.

💪🏽💈🔥

I love when my flights across country are nonstop! I may or may not have told the pilot upon boarding “Hit the gas!”

Tomorrow is Juneteenth. Corporate Chris is off. Barber Chris? Clocked in. The shops are open, and every client who booked tomorrow is getting a free haircut. Sometimes the best way to celebrate is by pouring back into the people who’ve poured into you. That’s the kind of business I believe in.

Know your role, play it well, and stop trying to make yourself bigger than the moment. Confidence is quiet. Insecurity overcompensates. Nine times out of ten, it ain’t that deep.

Welcome to NYC

What a day that will be! 🎉

Business trips are fun at all, but I’m so ready to be back in Los Angeles. Homesick is an understatement.

Leaving the gym after a good late night workout is so refreshing. Time for a shower, and bed.

There was a time I questioned whether I’d ever make something of my life. Then there are days like this. Grateful is an understatement. 🙏🏽🥹🙌🏽

And the song says… 🎶 “Every single cell inside of my body, every single cell is happy and well” 🎶 Go regulate yourself… NOW!

Stop listening to what people say and start watching what they do. Watch how they treat you when you’re struggling, how they react when you’re succeeding, and whether your private conversations stay private. Words create impressions. Character confirms them.

THIS IS WHY IF YOU SEE SOMEONE STEALING FOOD OR DIAPERS, NO TF YOU DIDN'T.

Honestly? I don’t think any social media platform is genuinely safe. Every app has its own culture, algorithm, and people who can make it either a positive or toxic experience. 👇🏽(continue to read below)

Too bad.

There comes a point where every headline starts to feel the same. Another Black life. Another family shattered. You don’t become heartless, you become exhausted. Constantly watching people who look like you become statistics has a way of numbing the soul. And that’s a tragedy all its own.

Say his name… Kohen Wiley

Florida sun and Los Angeles sun are two different suns!

I guess as an AftoLatino is can answer this. I love our resilience. We have an unmatched ability to create beauty, joy, innovation, culture, and community even in places that were never designed for us to thrive. That’s something I’ll always carry with pride.

I love all my followers, and those I follow. Even the ones who don’t follow me back, or we don’t get to engage often. I love their content, opinions, wit, thoughts, and seeing life through their eyes.

Whitney Houston. There’s no comparison.

Any home improvement projects. I love creating and enhancing this beautiful home God has blessed me to have.
