In this episode of the Coming Out Late podcast Robin and Chris invite two very special guests, barbers Wallace and Jess. Wallace & Jess are romantic partners, business partners and Owners of Locket Barber Shop in the Olde Kenzo part Philadelphia, PA.

In this episode you will learn . . . 

• How did Jess & Wallace meet? And, how did they get into barbering?
• What has surprised you most about running a business while also being together as a couple?
• Has being queer has helped or hindered their business? 
• What is a queer-affirming haircut? And are there distinguishable nuances between a femme versus masc cut?
• What’s the difference between a Barbershop and a Salon? 
• Wanna support our “Coming Out Late” podcast? Then please consider buying Robin a “virtual” coffee as a sign of your appreciation.  Any and all donations are deeply, deeply appreciated!!  Go to: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/RobinDouglass
