Think of it like the Olympics for those who cut, shave and trim. At Norcal’s 2nd Annual Barber Battle at Ace of Spades, professionals and amateurs alike compete in five distinct categories: combover, low fade, low taper, freestyle/design and beard. Look for local “celebrity contestants” such as Anthony Giannotti of Anthony’s Barbershop and Justin Thomas of the hair salon Black Black. 1417 R Street.
