An older guy up the street, his shop was attached to his house. He has been cutting hair for 40+ years, part time till he retired his full time job, then full time since. He is the type of guy who knows everyone of importance in town, and all the history (not a small town); a really neat guy. I miss him.

I moved 5 years ago, and had a couple of different barbers for a couple of years till I finally shaved it all. I miss going to the barber shop for all the talk, and information you could get there.

Funny this topic came up. NOt 10 minutes ago  I  bumped into my barber that I have gone to for years.  He thought that he had done something to offend me and wondered why I had not been in to see him.  After seeing the shaved dome he was relived.

Also, he thought it looked great.

Wife, then Sport Clips, then me when I realized I could do it myself.  Then curiosity got the best of me, and 5+ years later, I've been slick (and happier).  You older guys might remember the margarine commercials from the 1970's... 'Don't mess with Mother Nature.'  Well, I guess I did by hurrying up the process.
How is that Hopey / Changey thing working for you?

I cut it myself the previous 20 or so years before it started going away. It was really curly (Yeah, the girls were jealous. They all wanted to know where I got my perm, LOL.) and pretty near impossible to screw up.
If I'd known I was gonna live this long, I'd have taken better care of myself.
