Tributes To Jay Da Barber
Below are some of the statements shared across social media users’ timelines on the death of Jay Da Barber.
I text this post with a very heavy heart. Milwaukee lost one of the top barbers in the city, but more than that, a friend was taken from us, a son, a brother, a soon to be father, a down right GOOD BROTHA! Yosef J Timms, better known as Jay Da Barber spent a large portion of his barbering career at Gee’s Clippers, until he opened his own barbershop more than 5 years ago. He was definitely one of my more talented barbers, he was full of energy, he loved to laugh, he loved to dress, he loved nice cars. He was taken from us earlier today by gun violence… a senseless act of violence. Why?!?! We must do better as a people Family! Too many of us are leaving here too young, too soon!
Many months ago we met. He had just bought his new Shelby Mustang. Proud. Meticulous. 3 time per week customer at Metro Car Wash & Detailing Centre. I thought about him today as I haven’t seen him in a short while. Today I find out Jay Da Barber was taken from us too soon due to gun violence. Another life lost. Another senseless tragedy. Milwaukee. Do better. RIP young man.
Love don’t love nobody
MAN THIS ONE HURTS…..Rest In Heaven Jay Da Barber They shot him right outside his barbershop. I’ve known him a long time. Always been cool, always been real. He used to come in sometime at the first shop I worked at Q & A Salon… man he was always cool to be around and talk stuff he kept people cracking up. I remember one time he came when he first got this mustang and he put the halo lights in it I came outside he was like look. I was like ooooooh you snapped. It’s so crazy how people are here then gone. It’s best to give people their flowers while they’re here as my Brest friend says. Rest In Heaven. Now he’s one I’m pretty sure made it to the Gate #StopTheViolence man. I’m down about this one smh this city really disgusts me at times.
If you knew me and was around when I first started at Gees, you know that Jay Da Barber and I had a competitive relationship. We disagreed on many things but we also worked along side one another for the same cause so that made us brothers. He thought he had wheels but mine were faster. Lol (I have video evidence) The one thing I truly admired about him was his gift of cutting hair. He’s responsible for my fade game being what it is today. I learned from him, one of the best in the industry. He will be missed by many. He will most certainly be missed by me. He left here entirely too soon and I pray his family finds peace. Rest up bro!
Smh tired of hearing bad news. If anybody know anything about my brother Royal Tee if Maddie ain’t available to braid his hair he bumming it & if Jay Da Barber ain’t available to cut his hair he bumming it. I be asking my brother why yo head look like that and he’ll say my braided booked or my barber booked. My son would get his hair cut by one of the barbers at this shop since he was in middle school and they were always respectful and cordial if I went in that shop smh……..
