My hairline has been receding and thinning long enough such that I've just decided to shave my head for the past several months, though not to the extent where I'm left reflectively bald (the clippers I use won't allow for it, either).
It saves me time and money on getting a haircut, shampoo, showering, and getting ready to leave the house; I also rather like it on aesthetic grounds. In other words, I really wish I had hair. |

Totally didn't see that coming. When I tried shaving my head, I really hated it.
a) People were always patting my dome. No, that's my dome, keep your filthy mitts off it.
b) The excess friction on pillows and car head rests annoyed me to no end. |

Yes, but didn't you also notice how the cooler side of the pillow felt that much cooler for a longer period of time? Unfortunately, this also has the consequence of everything else that's cool feeling much cooler, for much longer. I'm sure you noticed that, too. |

Then you get used to it again and it's all good. I can't think of any explanation your mind would do this, but I'm so hung over my brain doesn't want to work. You figure it out. |
No, there have been a few times when I went ot the cheap places to get a hair cut that they cut one side way higher (above my ear) than the other (lower than my ear) and I have to correct it with my own scissors.
Its a nice feeling to go in and say "make me look pretty!" and they do. |

| Lol at you guys. You're complaining about bad hair cuts, yet you're unwilling to spend more than 20 bucks? What do you expect? Just like anything else that's quality in life, you have to pay more for a better job/more skill. So either accept that you'll have to spend more money, or stop complaining about your bad hair. |

Most guys can easily fetch themselves a quality haircut on a budget of 20 dollars, especially if your styling needs/preferences are relatively sparse. It may not be sufficient to capture the scope of what a 40 dollar haircut can do, but the difference between 20 and 40, in most cases, is not the difference between good and bad. In fact, depending upon your type of hair and how much of it you have, investing any more than 20 dollars could even be quite foolish. |

I agree money has very little to do with the quality the haircut (excluding supercuts). Its more about finding a style that suits you. A good barber will steer you in the right direction.
laughing still at "master stylus". |

| When I get my hair cut, it costs $13, and I've only had something I didn't like once, and that was my fault because I was in a rush and instead of having her go back through and trim off a little more I just said that it was fine and left. For guys with shorter hair, it really doesn't make sense to pay any more than $20. You just need to find someone who is good. |

I just realized how hilarious it is that you guys think 40 bucks every 6-8 weeks is expensive. What kind of job do you have? A paper route?
And I still can't figure out why the bald guy here feels like his opinion matters. |

LOL
igk got pwnt
but jenny, you can pay $1000 for a hair cut u dont like...
if you are happy with a $20 hair cut and the stylist does a good job why pay more?
I pay a lot more than that when i get my hair done but sometimes when i dont have the time to spend an hour in the salon with my stylist washing and massaging my hair and giving me all these extra salon products (Which is included in the total bill) i go to this place which does my hair for under $30 and does a fairly good job. |

Spending any money on *your* hair is a waste, seeing as how your head is planted firmly in your own ass.

| I haven't paid for a hair cut in years. I only pay for colour. |
