Damn there's a lot of love in these comments! I appreciate all the kind words and people wishing me well. For the people curious about my dread journey, I'll be dropping a vid about that soon. Huge shout out to big bro Ken for getting me right with the cut! Love💙💙

I get the impression this young man has gone through something. I hope this cut does what he wants for him, and I wish him success.

The shampoo and scalp massage must have felt like heaven on his scalp. ❤

This young man was at peace with his decision in cut, barber, and life. Well done!

I am a 74 year old woman I don’t look at hair videos but this caught my attention. Wonderful!!! Loved your patience and really caring for this man. Keep doing your best with your gift it’s a blessing. The young man looks much better. Handsome I would say.

That was a therapy session low key 💯 Very satisfying transformation 🔥🔥🔥

He looks a thousand times better and I KNOW his scalp was happy it could breathe again!

He looks good and this was therapy. Best of prayers to this young man.

He is so handsome. Loved the smile at the end. I love the respect you gave to his locks by cutting one at a time. You exhibited patience, gentleness, calmness and professional. Thoroughly enjoyed watching the evolution from locks to new hair style. Amazing job.

Beautifully done and I enjoy your compassion for your client's transition from locked to loose natural hair. Art meets humanity, with sincere intentions to serve one another. Only good fruit can come from that. This is ministry.

I bet that shampoo felt like a baptism! I remember when I cut my hair off after 6 years of having braids. There is nothing like the first scalp scrub.

The look on his face says it all. He looked liberated, free from whatever it was that was holding him down or back. I hope this fresh haircut and start open up many doors for him and he can go out and conquer the world. He looks amazing and that smile says it all! He loved it!

Could not see his gorgeous eyes, and lashes, and face until that awesome haircut. Fantastic job!!

People click with u because u give off good vibes. Just in ur voice u can tell u actually care about people and their hair. This guy looks amazing with the fresh cut. Just because someone does a big chop doesn’t always mean something is wrong. Some people just want a change. 😊

I get this so much. I cut my locs for my birthday too. I didn’t realize that it was a release of what I was going through at the time and I needed that sense of a fresh start. Prayers and blessings to this young man on his new journey.

As an old Scotswoman with thin, “blonde” hair, I was mesmerised by this video. His hair looked so soft and incredibly thick. I wish him nothing but the best for his future. What a huge step to walk in and get your hair cut after seven years. I think his hair was the least of his troubles over the years. He looked fantastic afterwards. ❤

I appreciate that you respect your client’s hair, hair is culture

I like how you actually show you cutting the hair and not just showing a “transformation” that’s cool because I can learn

How a beautiful young man rediscovered himself with your kind and sweet attention to detail. Bravo!

He looks so handsome, younger , clean, professional, confident, all from a hair cut truly amazing.

I love the respect you show each and every client. His smile says it all!

From a sister to a brother. I enjoy watching your hair artistry process. You sculpture all of your client's hair cuts into fine pieces of impeccable craftsmanship. Your eye for precise detail is laser-sharp. Keep up the excellent work. Thanks for sharing.

I would imagine his head feels SO much better with all that heavy hair gone. He looked like he was actually almost dozing off from the good feelings coming from his head. You did good, sweetheart. Really good. This looks wonderful. What a transformation! He was a happy man. Beautiful!!

Thanks bro for helping another young man clean up his image I wish all of them do the same

@the4thKen The respect you show every client sitting in your chair is inspirational to me. I pray that faithfulness is passed on to the members of the academy community. Great Job! 😊😊😊 I'm in Raleigh NC!

this transformation was really poetry in motion. you put the young bull back in the game, great work as always Ken!

Damn he looks good as hell afterwards. Love the cut. He doesn’t need to ever where dreadlocks ever again

The process accompanied by the peaceful music was so caring, melodic & soothing, I don't know how he kept awake. Beautiful, talented & revitalizing experience even for the viewer.

LIFE CHANGING IN SILENCE 😊 WELL DONE, YOUNG MAN !!!!!

This is a great look on this man! The new cut really shows off his beautiful eyes.

He looks amazing!!! I can only imagine the freedom he feels now. Great work! ❤❤

This video really Bless me, because my grandson is a barber. He graduated from boot camp in February now he is a Navy Sailor. He was like that with his clients and your voice is what tells me you are real. You are so passionate, because what you did was touch his soul, that is so important and he looks so handsome and free. I love that I can really see his face, because he is a King and I know he is doing great things. Your business is a ministry. I thank God for you. He is so happy with what you done💙💙🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽

4… not only are you knowledgeable and talented, but you are patient, respectful, thoughtful, and you take your time… never rushing anything. The love you have for what you do really shows 👊🏾. I love your work man… keep going.

That young man needed to go from caterpillar to butterfly his way. He's seen some stuff, and I'm glad he reached out to you and have him get HIMSELF back, at least for now.

The patience and care you have while transforming this man’s life is impressive. I’ve been watching a lot of barber channels and a lot are there just for the clicks and likes. You’re different. Great job on his transformation. His smile at the end says it all…

Im A Barber/Cosmetologist Yes, You Did That! With Such Grace & Love. I Love Your Very Calm Voice & Your Commentary. He's Very Pleased Customer 😀 ❤️

Awesome! Absolutely Awesome! I know he feels so much better! His smile afterwards was everything, just like a weight had just lifted. May God continue to bless your amazing, and blessed gifts and talents!

The look on his face is priceless. I can tell you put your heart and soul into your work. Blessings!!

You can truly tell this is your gift, the love and care you showed this young man is something quite special

Awesome transformation! It's a complete change. He looks great!

Wow, what a transformation! His features, especially his eyes, stand out after the cut. He looks younger, too! Great job!!

Went from "Wtf" to "WTF" Ina good way😂!! Respect!! KeepPushin to the both of yall!!

Out here transforming lives by transforming hair 🙌

So much respect for you. I appreciate your respect for the craft and how you speak respectfully of all hair types. Most barbers would use demoralizing words to describe his hair and those alike. I've noticed it in your other videos as well. Keep it up. You are now setting the bar! You've come a long way

What an artist you are! This new transformation gave this young man a real lift in his life! He looks amazing and it’s thanks to you with your gentleness and your compassion towards this individual! Nice job bro❤

The smile at the end was Amazing. Nice work.

Best barber on KZfaq! You're killing it man! Sky's the limit!

Bless both of your hearts. That young man had some burdens lifted off of him as well. 😌

I am a 60+ lady and your video caught my eye, whilst flicking through KZfaq. This is talent and skill. You are a very good barber. The guy whose hair you designed, knew you would work magic on his head and chose you correctly. Wow! He looks very handsome with his new look. Beautiful work❤

Great job on this young man's hair. Lots of work and patience. You were so gentle and took your time. Great job!

Ur videos are like therapy man💯 congrats on the new community/ online course✌🏾

I subscribed to your channel a while ago. I watch 99% of your videos. This video ranks in the top 5. Congrats on your business progression.........❤ Giving back to help others is one of the keys to success and wealth.😊

Love how happy he was at the end when he saw the new look...that reaction and smile said it all!

I love the respect you show to the hair and the absolute trust this young man has in you. Wonderful job!

He must feel ten tonne lighter in every sense..many blessings to him

satisfying video and fire haircut kenneth.🔥🔥

Fantastic work. Changed his perspective in so many ways. 👏🏾

Wow!!! He looks amazing!!! That smile and those eyes...HANDSOME!!!

I really love the respect & positivity you give your clients. Congratulations

Ride pass all the time in my travels…❤️‍🩹what u are & who u are…May God continue to watch over you…be BLESSED 🙏🏾

Great cut! Hope his friends, family, and co-workers, tell him to "NEVER" go back to that previous look! 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

The respect and care shown through this entire process ❤❤❤

You did an amazing job with this brotha. You are extremely talented🙏🏽

this man does amazing work always has his clients/costumers looking 🔥

Yeah ... there's a lot of pain in those young eyes. I hope the symbolism of having the hair cut (also specific to the 7th year) brings him some relief, so that he can move on (and enjoy his life) and the blessing that he is to humanity as a whole. Will be keeping you in my prayers

I love it when someone takes pride in their work. And it shows. And you young man are as handsome as can be. I wish both of you much success. Keep doing what you are doing ,and never stop. Much love from South Carolina.

What an awesome change. Thank you for what you do.

Idk why people let they hair get to the point where it’s beyond matted?. All types of lice could have been under there.

Now that was some NASTY HAIR just don't understand why anyone wants that mess on their heads. You did this young brother some justice for sure.,right on like always great barber 4thKen you going down in history bro. If you ever in Washington state give me a shout prior to coming.

This channel is so fun to watch. This client looked relieved and happy at the end!

Beautiful young man before and after. What a loving approach to caring for people by how you care for them/their hair. Also his smile at the end! Precious!!

Comment what city you’re in! 👇

Yo, I was second

Aw! Happy for you! Fresh start. It looks like it has to feel better, too. Handsome young man. Lookin’ good!

Really brought out his features with the shaping of his cut. Great job!

Sometimes you have to get rid of the things that are holding you back along with the memories and the trauma associated with it. May you find a new peace..a new strength..and a new way of living your life to the fullest!! Stay Blessed Bishop.

Yessssss, Mr. Barber!!! You set this OFF!!❤🔥🔥 Looks great, young man!

I have never seen a haircut performed like this before. It’s amazing and I am in awe of this Hair Artist. Bravo to you! What a patient man you are!!! Blessings to you. ❤❤❤❤❤

Thank you for sharing. 100% love it!

Trust is everything the respect and kindness you give is a dying breed

I thoroughly enjoyed watching this video, the gentleness in which you handle his hair I was mesmerized. Great job.

I think you are the best barber I’ve ever seen. And, what care and respect you have- whew! This guy, Bishop, clearly made the decision to change something for the better in his life experience. He’s ready! He looks fantastic. What an inspiring video, thank you and God Bless you both! 🌹🌹🌹🙌🤩

Very precise in the execution of this cut! The final look is really nice!

All the best to you Bishop! Happy belated birthday.

Amen! Handsome and Blessed! Thank you for being a Blessing and sharing his testimony ❤

Much love to you for respecting the locks. And such an amazing transformation! ❤

You did such a great job. This is the first video I’ve watched about cutting dreads off. You were so kind and thoughtful. I like that it was gradual, once you respectfully cut off each dread. He looks like an entirely different person. He seemed very happy with his hair. Thanks for posting this video. 👋 hi from Idaho😀

Aaaaw! Him look so haandsooome🥹💇🏾‍♂️! Happy (belated) 21st Life Anniversary, Young King🥳!! This new look is going to open up new doors of opportunities for you... walk there in 🚪🚶🏾‼️ (Big Up to you, King Barber 🫡! Out here changing lives, turning boys to Men👍🏾💪🏾‼️)

Hospitality is key, u made bro feel at home and comfortable 🙌🏽💯 salute

Wonderful job! You are a true artist! 🦋

Bless Ken for the amazing job you did on bro's head man, and you did it with heart in mind. There should be more saints like you man for real. God bless you and the young man😂.

It must’ve felt so liberating shedding that weight. A fresh start (in more ways than one 🥹.) Hair cut as catharsis✨ “The LORD bless you and keep you; The LORD make His face shine on you and be gracious to you; The LORD lift up His face on you a nd give you peace.” ( Numbers 6:24-26)

Recovering from a surgery and this is exactly what I needed but didn't know I needed. Amazingly satisfying artistry and humanity in this video. Thank you.

Bro you’re bless anyone can sit and watch your videos very informative,music,voice over and seeing your skills it’s something to watch

An awesome transformation! Handsome young man for sure. Love watching you and love how you explain as you go. Not everyone is up to the challenge. You rock it!😎😍

This is wonderful work. I could tell the care and trust between the barber and client. Much respect.

💜 Love watching your videos... The transformation left me speechless. The cut looks nice on him, I can tell he loves it 🥰
