Bad Hair cuts what are the risk?

[hoosierdaddy1976]

Other than my yearly St. Baldricks event, I've not went somewhere to get my hair cut since before my wedding, which coincidentally enough will be 20 years ago in October. A set of clippers is no more than a haircut or two at most, and lasts for years.

My wife cuts my hair and does a great job.

She got tired of me paying $20 bucks to have some 20 something with big boobs cut it...….

I had the same barber for 49 years. Gave me my first non-home haircut when I was 3-4 yo and he retired a little over a year ago when the shop changed hands and went more upscale. I stayed there and got used to barber #2 who soon opened his own shop. Kind of a fancy manly place with two chairs, coffee and soon bourbon. The haircut is now a welcome splurge. Every three weeks it's a full haircut, beard trim, and shave with hot towel, straight razor finish, the works. It is insanely relaxing and worth every penny of the $35 plus tip.

Prior to all the Hoopla we took my son to Great Clips every Sunday as well. MJJROTC they offered $2.00 discount for ROTC still it added up quickly. But I was not going to cheap out with him Teenagers have a lot going on and Certainly was not going to add a bad haircut to the list of things he needed to worry about.

Yep, I had two that went through JROTC....
40 bucks a month is a bunch when you only bring home 1,100 and change...

$35?!?! For hair? I thought my wife was bad!

But it includes a new hair scrunchie for the bun....

I need a haircut bad. If this goes on much longer, I’ll look like CM.

Just cross your fingers that the unicorns can tell the difference. I don't EVEN want to know what goes on behind closed doors!






I'll see you guys after my time out ends.

Hair cut money is kind of like a car payment to me. Gave those up a while back. Never going back.

This time of year, I cut my hair twice a week. Imagine paying for that?

When the SHTF all the clippers sold out, but eventually got a new Wahls off of eBay for $50, so price of three haircuts. Walked out the back door with a hand mirror, let the excess hair blow away in the wind. The hair line at the back of my neck is not exactly straight but I can live with it as a first try.

It felt so good the get rid of all the fuzz that was tickling my ears. The transformation was amazing.

When I first read the title of this thread, I had a question.
"What are the risk(s) of a bad haircut?"
Risk(s) for whom? The hair cutter, or the person getting the cut?

I'm the wrong person to ask about this question.
I can't remember the last time I had my hair cut, and I don't care.
It grows to whatever length/shape/style the good lord wants.

BTW- For those who don't know me, 30 years ago my niece and nephew called me "Uncle It".
Things haven't changed much since.

So my mental picture is that you make Charles Manson look sane?

I have not paid for a haircut in decades. Working for the military and DoD makes the accepted style rather limited anyway so I just use a clipper system and no one has complained. Total cost for haircuts over the last couple of decades is less than 40 bucks. I don't miss sitting in a chair waiting to tip someone one bit.

Mgderf is a dead ringer for Uncle Si on Duck Commander.

No, Uncle Si is a dead-ringer for me!
I've threatened to start charging for autographs.
I actually had a lady stop me in a bank parking lot and ask, "Are you sure you're not him?" while holding up a DVD with his picture.

After perusing this thread, I found myself a little envious that so many people apparently don't have to look like they know what they are doing...in general.
