How does the game fit the theme?
The trust people put in their barbers is often unfounded, especially when the barber in question is drunk.

this was great! so well polished, i loved the style. i think i could be a professional barber tbh
What a awesome expedience. The game feels really chill but when the girl with the 3 eyes appear I was constantly expecting something scary to happen! and the calm music did not made it better, haha :D
The game is so clean and well crafted. The mechanic with the hair cut is simple and fun. I like also that there is no fail state, which lead me to play it again just to mess people up :D
Would be cool if the guest made a comment about the result.
The art and music are also excellent! 10/10
this is the winner right here, my winner at least, I enjoyed this so much its so well executed, SO GOOD
Incredibly well made and I could definitely see this turn into a full game once it gets an ending.
That being said, I was giving a haircut to look like the saxophone guy and then the game crashed. This was my 4th client.
i think this is my favorite use of the theme by far! it prays on my real fear of barbers messing up
great game! i think all my customers are going to sue me now
The pixel art is perfect and the game play is fun
cool game
the 3 eyes realy surprise me hahahah
Maybe I missed it but some feedback on how close I got with the haircuts ,despite the generic descriptions, would have been nice. Also the ability to see the haircuts after the game would have been a good addition.
Other then these 2 tiny things the game was perfect! It's really charming and has a nice vibe. I liked it a lot. Nice little details everywhere that just add up.
Good job!
Absolutely killer. I was trying to look for something to complain about and legitimately struggled. I was going to say something about not being able to target the back hair, but then I read the description and realized I could not right click on mobile! I’ll download this later and give it another go. No notes! Can’t wait to see where it goes.
Fun game and funny interactions! I felt a little bad for some of their cuts but that's probably pretty accurate to how I'd be as a real barber tbh. The monochrome art was great; it gives it a classy vibe which contrasts nicely with the wackiness of the game
I love this tipsy little vibe — after playing, I felt like I'd gotten drunk too XD
This game is a vibe, impressive for sure. Really goes for the true barber experience where I can butcher peoples haircuts. Controls feel responsive and the attention to detail is nice, I particularly enjoyed the tv interaction with the saxophone guy hair request. Visuals are great and pair well with the satisfying sfx. Music is also really nice to have in the background and fits the aesthetic so well
I love this idea and how nice and responsive the game feels! Very impressive that only two people worked on this too!
That Game Boy green palette and the little barbershop set are so charming - I gave her a haircut she absolutely did not ask for.
i really like the concept and the fact that i can relate to barbers giving bad haircuts reflects the theme. the sounds, the music and visuals are so satisfying. i really enjoyed cutting and buzzing to create the most horrendous amazing haircut you will ever see.

look how he loves that haircut!!!
