  Haha, great article! I reposted it on FB with a personal note to all those who doubted me when I started shaving almost 15 years ago.
  On the barber front, though, I have spoken to two barbers who told me that the only way they can legally shave a head in the good ol' U. S. of A. is if they meet the shavee away from their shop so as to avoid detection by the big-brother head shaving police, also known as the health department, because there are so many laws regulating them that they don't know whether to $h!t or go blind on the topic of headshaving. I have never understood this because if there's one place that I would figure has got the upper hand in sterilizing tools it's the barber shop. I guess big brother sees it differently.

  Well thats not a bad law , but even cut throats have disposable blades etc i have noticed with interest in the Uk an increase in barber offering wet shaves so yes a head shave is more work and should be reflected in the price of a head shave to cover disposables and time
