What do you think? Do you like the Cedric’s Barber Battle series? Will you tune in for its return?
I’m a barber. Been doing so for 20+ yrs. This show is absolutely horrible. Not realistic as to what barbering truly is. It’s focus is entirely on less than 5% off what we do daily. Designs and ghetto jargon isn’t barbering. Sorry.
I wondered what happened. I liked it!! I do not like who line is it. Cmon cw what’s up?
Ah, that explains why the new WLIIA episodes were moved.
im a barber & i love the barber battle show it’s very entertaining there’s alot talent on the show that most people never seen before so i hope the CW keeps it on
How do you get I touch with them? My son is a barber and I would like to get him on the show.
Why would called the the hart of comedy?
