What do you do when you get a f***in haircut--and it's f***in awful??

Cadet, many guys here have rhapsodized about the ponytail/ballcap thing. The gym reference? Can't explain that one.

as a man whose motto has always been, "we care about our hair," i sympathize.

that said, what were you thinking by reading a mag while your hair was being ravaged? the mags are there for while you wait. attention must be paid AT ALL TIME when someone's taking the scissors to your hair!!

unless you've got a regular person who does your haircut all the time, we can leave nothing to chance. it's like that "seinfeld" episode. when you have a barber. you hang on for dear life. i've used the same guy for 17 years. in an emergency, away from home for a funeral, i kept my eyes on the woman cutting my hair every step of the way, guiding her as we went.

try not to fret too much. the good thing about hair is that it does grow back. for some of us, anyway.

 

If your wife orders you to get a haircut, just say fine, I'll go get some trim at Trim (and enjoy a brewski while I'm waiting). End of discussion.

 

I've had a few awful haircuts over the years, and they've all come at shitty Supercuts-type places.

Now I pretty much go with the crew cut look, actually a little longer, and I cut it myself half the time.

 

Just have some taken off the top to even out. It'll grow back.

We moved last year and I had to find a new barber. I found an old-time barber shop where they do a good job, but the old guy kind of creeps me out, keeps asking if he should trim my nose hairs and the hairs in my ears. No other hair professional has expressed such an interest in these regions. I swear, one of these days I'm going to say, "NO! And before you ask, you can leave the pubes and asshairs alone, too!"

 

Girl with a hat on low with a good curve to the bill and a ponytail out the back, rrrowwwwrrrrrrrr

 

*Tug, tug on said ponytail is fun too.

I also need to get my f*cking haircut.

 

See, that's always been my default bad-hair-day look or my "I'm working a game and don't want to look prissy if I do my hair" look. Have never considered it sexy.

 

PM me and let's set something up. ;D

For the most part, men are easy to please. We don't need to have you women get all dolled up and look all fancy. We feel bad about messing it all up later.

 

If you want to get it fixed, go to a place with more credentials than Supercuts and explain to the guy - and get a guy - what happened.
If he's worth his salt, he'll be able to fix it and in getting creative, might actually find you a look you like.
I used to go to an inexpensive place and always came out with those exact same feelings.
Upgraded to a place that charges about $22 and walk out feeling great every time. I also tip the guy at least $5.
It's worth it, as I'm sure you realize now.
