TRENTON A Trenton barber was arrested Thursday afternoon after allegedly biting a customers ear in half following a dispute over how long a haircut was taking, police said.
James Dillard, 40, was at work inside the Beauty and the Beast Barber Shop on the 700 block of Chambers Street around 5:30 p.m. In his barber chair was a 24-year-old city man.
Dillard and his client began arguing about how fast Dillard was cutting the hair, and the client decided to get up and leave the shop, police said. The client slammed the barbershops front door behind him, causing the glass in it to shatter.
In response, Dillard rushed outside and confronted the young man, police said. The two began to fight, and during the struggle Dillard bit the 24-year-olds ear nearly in half, police said.

WT_?
Mike Tyson’s a barber?
I live in the Trenton, NJ area and thank God, not a customer of Mr. Dillard.

That’s what I get for taking the time to find a pic!
I guess the customer drew “THe Beast” as his barber du jour.
No worries! :-)
No worries! :-)
You could’ve just rickrolled us, but NOooo....
Barbers have sharp instruments and know how to use them. I make it a point NOT to piss them off when I am in the chair.
At least he didn’t swallow the bitten part.
barber: scissors and razors but he bites off half the ear? no, “whoopsie, I slipped” excuse? putz
That’s why I don’t get my hair cut. lol
If I need my hair cut I trim it myself. Some of my kids want me to cut my hair, say its silly to have hair so long. Lmao...Mainly the 2 sons going bald.
So, the client wanted his “ears lowered,” and the barber accommodated him....
I have been shaved by both Vietnamese and Palestinian barbers. I make it a point to keep my big mouth shut when a potential enemy has a razor anywhere near my jugular vein.
I don’t know; I still have all my hair (kept short, as any member of the vast right-wing conspiracy should), but if I start to lose my hair I’d never do the Ben Franklin “half-skullet”.
I’d probably get hair tattooed on my head, with some nerd/psycho part down the middle to discourage people from laughing at me...
Hmmm good luck with the hair tats. I have seen heads with tats but never ones that were hair. I guess a good artist could do it... My hair is past my butt & I keep it in a braid most of the time. I can’t help it if my sons are losing their hair. I warned them for years to stop wearing baseball caps & put yuky stuff in their hair. They are just jealous mom has better hair. lmao
