That's about 50k a year if he was paid weekly. I've never heard of anyone being paid weekly though, so...

sounds a lot like this to me:

OP: "damn there are a lot of investors getting cuts at my GF's place, i must maintain my stance by pretending they are liars.

Great news, I finally caught ONE of them lying, they must all be lying."

Wow this needs a pole: Do you want your barber/hair stylist to stfu or talk to you?

depends. I used to go to this one barbershop run by two brothers in their 50's. I used to love talking to them about anything and everything - cars, chicks, school, movies, etc. I moved to another area now and go to another barbershop staffed with mostly young hispanic guys. Even though the newer guys are closer to my age, I just dont seem to click with them...maybe I don't know them well enough yet, but most probably because they talk in spanish amongst each other and I can't understand them. They cut hair just as well, but i prefer a silent haircut in the new salon

This!

I honestly do not care about my hair, and as such I get it cut at Great Clips . Every time I go in the stylist always wants to chat me up and it ends up being an awkward silence. Just cut my damn hair, lady. I'd tip them extra to not say a word except "How would you like your hair cut?"

lol j/k, I've been cutting my own hair with clippers for 20+ years now. Short hair = win.

I do that too. Just tough to get the back of neck looking good.

Do you attempt to fade the hair around your ears/back of neck? If so, how do you do it accurately?

I use #3 for the front/top of head, #2 for fading the top into the sides/back, and #1 for tapering around ears and hairline in the rear.

When tapering the top/sides it's all about holding the angle correctly. For the hairline I hold the razor perpendicular and rotate the razor about an axis, it's all about the supination. Wrist movement and not arm movement is your friend when doing the hairline.

i doubt it. but even if they are, I couldn't care less as long as the haircut is good

I don't. I have a brother that speaks spanish fluently, it is extremely common for spanish speakers to make fun of non-spanish speakers in spanish.

(However, strangely enough they love you even when you spout out the most basic of spanish sentences. 'Tengo el gato en mis pantalones.')

I think my problem is my left hand is gimp. I can do my right side ok but when I switch the clipper over to my left hand it's disaster. Especially trying to control my left hand while watching it in the mirror. Feels like I am trying to control the grabber in one of those amusement park prize boxes. Are you ambidextrous or something?

Whenever a barber asks me what I do for a living, I tell him I sell couch insurance....

lol, sort of. I've had five operations on my right shoulder so I got pretty good at using my left hand. In fact, it was back in the early 90's when I was learning autocad and had to use the mouse with my left hand. To this day I use the mouse with my left hand even though I am right handed.

P.S. It sure comes in handy when IV's need to be started in awkward positions and I need to use my left hand.

i get paid weekly.


i dont generally lie about what i make, its not the greatest salary but it works for me. i dont discuss money with people tho, so that part never is an issue. i have a friend that is a hair dresser, she has all kinds of regulars that come in with brag stories. she also has a few freaky weird dudes that bug her. she brings it all herself tho, she has huge titties and wears cleavage shirts/ dresses all the time. it gets her more tips.

i dont care if they talk, ive found that if they are totally silent it is unnerving. makes me feel like they are having a bad day and shouldnt be putting sharp instruments near my head.

I prefer not to talk about my profession very often, especially with my hairdresser, partly because a) much of what I do could very well come across as significantly boring to most people, and b) as soon as the word "psychology" comes out, all sorts of potential liability issues and/or over-disclosures usually occur.

The hairdresser trying to have a conversation with you isn't nearly as bad as when the dental hygienist tries to.
