This was an opportunity that can only be described as "GOLD"!!!!!

MODERN was visiting the BaBylissPRObooth at a recent trade show to catch up with superstar @StayGold31. We asked her to grab her favorite tools and demo a taper. Walking by was the famed and fabulous @RobTheOriginal who was sporting a shockingly simple cut. The barber-ess accepted the challenge and Rob felt good (actually GREAT) about having StayGold31 demo a super clean and precise taper.
