How often do you have you hair cut? I used to go every month, but it's so difficult to get an appointment.

WTF. It doesn't grow that much in 3 weeks. I barely notice any difference;

What's funny is that you probabaly work half a day to pay for a haircut that lasts a month.

find a $5 barber in the area and don't be retarded with your money. I can't believe MEN pay so much for a damn "stylist".

I hope you go bald. It will save you so much money.
Brigden is a sucker for overpriced current fashion.

I would be hardup to find a $5 haircut. Though brigden has stated in other thread he pays upwards of $70 for a haircut and style, if I remember correctly.

Dude? A hair appointment?

There are at least 2 oldschool barber shops near my apartment. Just walk in, get a cut and a shave, walk out.

Or you could ask Sealy...

You should have at least 2 top notch hair dressers, with a third mediocre backup.

Same here.

If I need a haircut I can call at the last minute and she'll stay late to fit me in.

Maybe you are a lousy tipper. Or maybe they have loads of appointments open, but not for you. Try calling under an phony name and see how things work out.

Yes, I know I should book when leaving, but this stylist is new to me. I've only had one appointment with him and since he cut my hair differently, I wasn't sure how long to wait between cuts. Now I know monthly is necessary.

This was taken last weekend. I'm on the right.

No, I don't pay $70, I pay $40. I would pay triple that because it's worth it.

What's funny is that you probabaly work half a day to pay for a haircut that lasts a month.

I can afford it, trust me.

you love and crave attention dontcha....

And yes, I like attention. :)

i usually get my hair done every 6 weeks but i am trying to grow it long now though

Fusion Hairstudio.

Let me guess, you spend about $80-100 for the cut?

edit: oops, I'm a dumbass for not reading the entire thread. Still $40 is about 4 times too high.
