PHRESH CUTZ, a monthly Brooklyn queer pop-up barber shop housed inside the Hair Force One dance party, is back for their first event of 2013 this Saturday, January 19th. And, whether you’re shaping up that queer-cut, getting your first alternative lifestyle asymmetrical, cruising for hot dapperQs, or stalking your ex dapperQ, there’s something for you. And, on the cheap too: $10 for a cut, $5 without + snacks (vegan and non-vegan) + drank specials! Here are the deets straight from PHRESH CUTZ (click here to RSVP):
WHO
Us: Hair Force One is the little queer haircutting collective that could. Based in BedStuy, BK, we are an ever-expanding group of friends working hard to give you the best times and the hottest looks. What originally started as a small party of five is now growing into a collective of amateur barbers, DJs, photographers, bartenders, and other supporting staff. We’re touched and excited to watch this little big thing grow, and we’re expanding our staff and grinding daily for you, baby.

You: Folks of all ages, genders, sexualities, etc are welcome. We will be checking IDs at the door for those who plan on drankin’. This is a SAFE SPACE, which means we expect you to respect the shit out of each other, because that’s how we feel about you.
