    My barber is a lovely woman that lost a leg to cancer. I've been going to her for years, and she does a great job and is a ray of sunshine. I always give her a big tip and she always tries to give it back, but I can outrun her. 😉

    If she gets tired of cutting hair, she could probably get a job at IHOP.

    My old barber was great. He was a rockstar

    Sadly, he has gone off to

    The Great Gig In The Sky

    I married my barber.

    Same here but the tips for the haircut are costing me big time.

    Yep. My $5 clippers have been going strong for the last 32 years. Just the blade (no guard) for me. I calculate that it has saved me at least $13,000. That’s value!

    No, when looking in the mirror everything is to backwards for me. When I was younger my mom tried to cut my hair, and when she was done, well; that’s where the Moe in Walter comes from.

    I had the same barber for almost 30 years. She was located right across the street from my office, she was a good old scissor cut barber. I moved away almost 10 years ago, I still have not found a decent one. I went to a recent one twice. I gave up on him once I discovered he knew how to do one haircut, using clippers, it was short on the sides and a little longer on top. Same haircut for everyone..... I asked him to leave it a little longer the 2nd time, he seemed confused !!

    I am back shopping for a barber.....

    I cut my own hair... I even could keep up on a shorter hair style and I color my own hair and my mom's.

    As a young kid my mom cut our hair and many family and neighbors

    At 15 I stopped cutting my hair until I was 21

    I went to a local hair stylist ? A couple times when I first had it cut

    She was a looker and parts of her came into contact with me long before she could get close to cut hair

    Then many girlfriends over the years wanted to cut my hair over the years so have at it

    When I met my wife to be she took over the duty and cut it for at least 20 yrs

    Then got mad at me one day and added in you can cut your own #^%$ hair from now on

    So I have that was getting close to 20 yrs ago

    So ever two or three weeks I hack it I mean cut it don't see any thing changing

    My youngest son and his wife own a hair and nails salon she is very good at it but I have never ask her or had her cut my hair

    Good news lol ever year cutting my hair takes less time basic less hair

    Yep.

    Can't even remember the last time I went to a Barber. 🤔

    Gravitate from no guard to a #2 guard, depending on my mood. (I'd shave it, but I have a few scars. It would be a bloody mess.)

    When I 1st started, I was using my Sister's Poodle trimming shears. They finally wore out. I've been buying apprx. $30 electric shears for years now, whenever a pair wears out.

    I sport a goatee, or a beard (like now.) I've been told I "look like a Biker Dude you don't wanna mess with." That works for me. 👍😁

    Just stand with your back to the mirror. 🙃

    Tomorrow I’m going to a barber for the first time in years. I usually just go with the clippers. 2 on the side, 6 on the top, wife blends the places I missed.

    The colander helps keep everything even.

    Same here. $25.00, 25+ years ago.

    50 haircuts per year = 1,250 haircuts. Biggest savings is time. 5 minutes vs. 30+.
