The creeping return of the insidious comb-over

(1/3) > >>

Semi-Sly:
hi guys, I am a barber and I still work two days a week and what I have noticed lately is the proportion of my customers who are sporting coworkers. I mean some of these guys are parting their hair from the top of their ear and combing it completely over their heads!   there?s more and more and more of them lately. It?s like they?re in a time  warp!

I cut one guy here yesterday and I kid you not. The comb overs were almost 9 inches long.!

Have you guys  been noticing more comb overs lately.

slybeard:
I have not noticed any increase here, but there are some in the 75+ crowd that have had the combovers for the past 30 or 40 yeas and refuse to give up on them.

Semi-Sly:
I did see one guy on YouTube who sports a come over on purpose. He shaves out the middle of his head and then comb the long hair from above his ear completely over it just like a natural comb over and he?s been doing it for quite some time, it?s actually kind of a fun look to see on such a young guy.

jason_greets:
Oh, dear. If I start balding for reals, I rather laser the rest of my hair off than to so with a combover. That just looks a desperate attempt to hide the near inevitable.

DoberDaddy:
To each his own...
