The floor of the San Carlos barbershop was covered in hair two inches deep — a sign of a successful reopening Thursday after three months of COVID-19-forced shutdown.

“I’ve been here for about four hours and I’ve taken about five or six people,” barber Kristoffer Garcia, 29, said at I’m Faded after taking a break to sweep up. “It’s been a few months without work. I have two kids, so it’s been hard. It’s good to finally be back at work. Every barber has to take 10 months of training and to see that hard work thrown down the drain, it was really difficult. We’re self-employed; we don’t get paid time off.”
