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. 😉

I married my barber.
If she gets tired of cutting hair, she could probably get a job at IHOP.
You are soooo goin' to hell...
000 blade on old Racine Champion clippers.
If you are asking about my barber, no her name is Connie.

My wife does.
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!
Robocut mine for the last 10 years. Like a Flo-bee.
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.
Great Clips $17
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
Many years my wife has done mine.
Where is the box to check, "Are ye daft man?" ?
At my age a haircut isn't much of an issue any longer.
What????......and lose my China Virus mullet????
My wife says......definitely......YES!!!
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.

You cut your hair with colander on or off??
You get a promote for that!!! 🤣

LOL, thanks
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+.

My wife cuts my hair about twice a year on average. She just uses scissors and then shaves the back of my neck.
My hair grows out in the back and sides very curly and my frontal hairline is advancing north. Her hands are suffering badly with arthritis but she still perseveres to remind me that it is time. For a month or two after a haircut, I look like an old conservative salesman\farmer\nobody depending upon my dress. After that, I occasionally get folks waving me a peace sign or wanting to know what the Hippy era was like! 😲
Started going to my barber when I was eighteen years old. We are down to Monday and Wednesday fifty years later. I like the new kid he sold the shop to.
I'm back from the barber. The difference is clear and I think the result was worth the cost.
I'm sure you all agree. 😂

Oh yeah !!!
I have never been to a barber. My mom cut my hair until I got married. My wife didn't want to cut it so I have been cutting it myself for a long time. I cut it 4 times a year; no guard. I wear a ball cap most of the time; always have. So what my hair looks like is not a big deal. My cutters are over 20 years old and still work fine. My sister-in-law had a hair salon for 35 years but I never went there.
FLOWBEE!!!!!!!!!!!!
Ya'll lighten up about the hair.
My mother and grandmother had me in a semi burr/flat-top style until I reached the 9th grade. Then......within 5 years of having hair that would actually need a comb........my crowning glory started its never-ending thinning process.
These days my biggest concern is the sinus hair that seems to be trying to migrate its way through my skull.........and out my ears!!!🤪
On top of all that......my lovely wife says that it won't be long before my greatest distinction will be the uncanny resemblance to........Andy Rooney!! 😎🤯
Every time I go in they always ask "A shave or Shine"🤨
I used to cut my own hair. Quit worrying about it during the pandemic.........now its long.....and I look like a hippie.
My wife's been cutting my hair for over 40 years. Fortunately for her there's less and less to cut every year.
I use a skull shaver every day. I keep my head clean. I can grow hair, but have been shaving my head since I was in HS, for football season. I let it grow for our wedding, and shaved it off right after the honeymoon. Low maintenance.
