We had the good fortune of connecting with Jaden Jackson Aka Cash The Barber and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Jaden, can you tell us about a book that has had a meaningful impact on you?
Rich dad for Dad was a great book. I really liked it because it showed a different mindset than what my mother had during my upbringing . Even though my mother was very successful, went to school and had a good career. It showed me that she had the poor dads mindset . That was was scared to take risk and invest into themselves.

Can you open up a bit about your work and career? We’re big fans and we’d love for our community to learn more about your work.
I feel like what sets me apart as an artist is that I’m always trying to create new styles and new looks. Always trying to get better every day. I am most proud to be a licensedBarber for 9+ years. Owning my own private barber suite . Also being the official Barber for the Detroit Lions for the past two seasons. Really hard work and dedication. Got me to where I am today being consistent on the days where I wasn’t cutting as much as I do today. It was definitely not easy, but this industry is full of ups and downs. At the end of the day, all you can do is put out good work and put your all into every masterpiece. That will keep people coming back to you and respecting your craft. The world needs to know about Cash the Barber because there is a Cash the barber in every city in every state. A kid with so much potential just needs the right platform to broadcast it .

Any places to eat or things to do that you can share with our readers? If they have a friend visiting town, what are some spots they could take them to?
So when you’re in Detroit, there’s so many dope places that you can go to get food or drinks, but one place that I would recommend is district 78 , table number two, or a classic Sweetwaters. Detroit is a city that has three major casinos so there will always be a place to hang out at night.

Who else deserves some credit and recognition?
Shout out to my family for always having my back and keeping me motivated.

Shout out to my friends business partners, and mentors for all the great advice
