Originally posted by SYSTEM-J I've had this experience for a long time and through a variety of hairstyles. A dozen different barbers have cut my hair for various prices and to various lengths and the sensation is almost always the same. Sometimes I have just had outright bad haircuts, where they ignored my requests, took off lots more length than I wanted, bulldozed through the lines of the existing cut and left me with a completely different result to what I wanted. When that happens I tend to deliberately wear a daft hat for a day or two to conceal the damage. Today may become one of thos days.

There are only two hairstyles known to this man.

A) Shave it all off
B) Never cut it again

Originally posted by SYSTEM-J Yeah I have one or two guys at my barber shop who regularly cut it. They know what I like and tend to spend a lot of time and attention on it, asking me how I want particular bits. Still, even with those guys there are the few days of hatred for how it looks.

i dunno dude

It's fine as long as you leave it on like a minute or 2 less than it says on the bottle. After the first time you leave it on too long, you never make that mistake again lol. I had great balls of fire for like 3 days after that one.

oops double post

Yeah I've always gotten better haircuts from gay dudes as opposed to straight guys/girls. They seem to pay more attention to making you look good.

LOL they style you to their Fukable Liking!

J, I'm guessing you typically go to barber shops, not salons right? You might want to try washing your hair immediately before going to get your haircut. I don't know if that has anything to do with it, but the place I go to always washes your hair before they cut it, and I've never had a bad haircut there.

I had mine cut on Wednesday for the first time in over 4 months. It was a right mess before, absolutely unstyleable but it's been hat weather for so long that I haven't cared. Now it's back to very short, smart and I'm way happier with it. I've had some bad cuts in my time though, I don't think anyone hasn't, I know which barbers to avoid/goto.

I hate getting my haircut...i'm always happy with the cut, that's not the issue, as i've been going to the same lady for years now...but I like having my hair long. unfortunately, it grows way too thick, so now it's a little bushy. and i need a fuckin haircut. but i don't want

Yeah, I used to try this, because I put product in my hair and figured it could fuck with how they cut it. However, after a while I figured that if you go in with completely flat, unstyled hair they tend to assume that's how you wear it, even if you tell them otherwise. When I go in with bed hair, even with day-old gel flaking out of it, they can see how I style it and cut it accordingly.

I hate the actual part of getting my hair cut... not because I have some odd phobia, just hate spending time on it.

I bought a pair of $20 clippers, shave my head every few days, have never looked back and my hair style never changes.
