Image Transcription:
A six-panel comic.
The first panel shows a white-skinned man and his son entering a barbershop where a black-skinned man is shaving the head of his black-skinned patron.
The second panel shows the barber asking the man "Uh... can I help you?" In response, the man hands the barber a piece of paper.
The third panel shows a close-up of the piece of paper with text reading "Hello, I understand this is strange, but my son is autistic & his hyperfixation is black barbershops. It's his dream to get his hair cut in one."
The fourth panel shows the barber looking at the child who's excitedly saying "I see you're using Wahl clippers. That is so cool! my personal favorite is the five - " (the rest is obscured behind the child).
The fifth panel shows the face of the smiling barber as the child continues his infodump saying "The Senior clipper is the best con- [obscured] -ut the baldi- [obscured] -ipper [obscured] -an on- [obscured] used for [obscured]".
The final panel shows the barber shaving the child's hair as he sits quietly in the barber chair, while his father hugs another black-skinned man in the background and says "Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you."
