by

YK Osiris says that the barber who claims that he didn’t pay for a $100 haircut is lying for attention. He responded to the viral allegation in a statement provided to XXL. “She got paid,” Osiris told the outlet. “She just want clout. Give her a lil clout lol.”

The hairstylist, who goes by @thalegendofficial on Instagram, leveled their claim in a post on Instagram. “I hate to have to come to the internet with this but I guess I got to,” they said in a video. “Y’all know I cut my first celebrity client, YK Osiris, last week. I charged him $150 for the cut, the cut went up, he paid me $200. He tipped me $50. No complaints but he had hit me up to come line him up last Tuesday.”

They continued: “I charge him $100 for the lineup. This n***a hit me with the, ‘Alright, I’ma Cash App you.’ Instantly I was like… I’m like ‘I don’t think he gonna do me like that.’ It’s just $100 dollars, it’s not $100,000.” They also shared an alleged text exchange between themselves and Osiris in which the rapper appears to promise to send the money he owes via Cash App. The barber claims they never received the money. Fans in the comments section on Instagram shared supportive messages. “So not cool for him to run off on you over $100. You will be rewarded bigger and better smh,” one wrote. Another added: “I’m glad you put it out there, some wouldn’t have the courage to stand on business bc it’s a ‘celebrity’”

The barber is far from the first person to claim Osiris owes them money. Both Drake and Lil Baby, among others, have publicized viral complaints about the rapper not paying up. At the end of 2021, he promised he would be clearing all of his debts in the following year.

Jalen Rose Reveals How Much Men Should Spend On A Haircut

by

If you have ever watched Jalen Rose on TV, you know that he always has an amazing haircut. His hairline has been praised for years, and it feels as though he is getting a new haircut every single day. Overall, Rose has been very forthcoming about his hair regimens. He is someone who always has his barber on call, and he is always ready to shell out a few bucks to keep his hair looking crisp. Although, it makes sense that he would do this when you consider he is on television for ESPN pretty well every single day.

For many, going to the barber can be an anxiety-inducing experience. For instance, there is an expectation that you will have to engage in small talk. If you are socially anxious, this is a no-fly zone. Moreover, there is the risk that the barber goes his own way and gives you something you didn’t ask for. Finally, there is always the chance you just get a wack haircut that you want to cover up with a baseball cap.

Jalen Rose Tells All

Rose is someone who knows these feelings all too well, and recently, he came through with some advice for people looking to have a good experience at the barbershop. However, if you are someone on a budget, then this advice probably won’t work out too well for you. “The minimum you’re supposed to be spending for a quality barber is $100…So many guys & people out there think y’all gon’ show up & get a fly haircut for $35,” Rose said. It’s interesting advice, however, not everyone is going to have that much to spend on their hair every month.

Either way, it is very easy to see how Rose has such immaculate hair. When you have the barber connects, things become easier. For the average person, the message is simple: get your money up. Until then, you will have to hope and pray that the barber you go to won’t mess you up. Or, you can just go bald and avoid the barber for the rest of your life. Let us know what you think of Rose’s advice, in the comments below.
