It's not that the other barbers couldn't do a decent enough job, although never REALLY quite as good as she did, but most of them took FOREVER, espcially the OWNER of the joint, and I could only put up with the shit that came out of their mouths for so long.

Yup, in and out, and I'm not much of a barber shop talker either.

I always chit chat, it's the polite thing that ordinary people do and it passes the time, but if the person cutting my hair has to stop cutting to talk, I STFU.

I Bic my head three times a week. Going gray, losing 20% of it and not wanting to pay $20 for a haircut pushed me over the edge.

Every 8-12 weeks, costs four minutes worth of electric bill, no gratuity as I do it myself:

If anyone lives in Frederick, Firestone, Erie or Dacono do you self a solid and go see Mr. Todd's barbershop. He shares his business with the scuba shack.

He's the real deal old school barber. Nothing better.

LOL. She's not the most talkative either.

For every one of those we had a person that REALLY appreciated a little non gossipy peace though.

Kind of what I was thinking, although I'm not opposed to road trips if I ever had time.

Went there this afternoon (not sure who cut my hair, forgot to ask, will ask for him specifically next time)....not too bad (haircut looks good), and didn't have to wait, but got the disposable razor treatment instead of the straight razor (always been a little peeve of mine, along with electric razors), and it was still >$20 after tip...

Still wishing I could get the fade even myself, but not a big deal in the grand scheme of things....

This thread almost makes the fact that I'm bald before thirty easier to swallow, almost. I use a Norelco tri head electric razor to shave my head three days a week, it's a lot easier than pulling out the razor and the results look the same.
