Number 1 Barbers in Aberdeen
Number 1 Barbers
Disgusting experience as I attended this hairdressers as I have done dozens of times in the past few years. Only this time I wasn't the one getting my haircut, my transgendee friend was and upon my friend stating this he was REFUSED a haircut with Barber stating it was because of the style of his hair (a mohawk she said). Even though he was being ushered to chair with the barber robe in hand talking to him about how he looked like someone who used to get their hair cut there by Sharon (female barber/ hairdressers) it was then my friend mentioned that yes it was him and that he was half way through his transition treatment at the moment, it was at this point the Barber decided that she wasn't going to cut his hair, blaming the style of his hair when it was clear as day that until the point of mentioning his PRIVATE life she was happily going to cut his hair, and from there for her then to tell him that him that HE WAS FEMALE not male was disgusting behaviour and completely uncalled for not to mention irrelevant to why she had turned him away!!
Needless to say that my friend was upset to say the least and never been treated in such a way, I was speechless and shocked as haven used this barbers many times never in my life had I expected this sort prehistoric attitude. Will be the last time I attend here and will never recommended them to others again. I only hope nobody else has to be humiliated in public in this way, the damage caused by this bigotry to people's lives can not be underestimated and I only hope I've saved someone else from this treatment.
