Cool Welcome to chris' barber shop

Hi guys I just gave my first hair cut today. My son bless his heart decided it would be cheaper for me to cut his hair then pay 20 bucks to get it cut in town, Well I proved him wrong even with a Masters degree in finance you can't save money if you let Dad cut your hair. Do any of you remember our gang? Well in one epasode alfalfa cut buck wheats hair and it was all patchs and clumps thats what my son looks like now.. he has to go to work tommorrow looking like a pychopath with an axe got too him . oh well at least I didn't draw any Blood. Whos next I need some prectice..

LOL, I can't wait to get up there to see you Chris but I think I will pass on the haircut. I am an ex barracks barber myself and know the consequences of such decisions

Yeah, David, but how wrong can you go with a set of electric clippers and a #1 gage ? ;-)

Thanks, but no thanks.
The wife has been doing my hair for the last 10 years.
The best way to avoid the "hacked" look, cut it down to stubble!

I get the ears lowered every 8 weeks used to be every 12 to 15 weeks but now I just can't stand it that long anymore.

I wish you great success and may you cut 1 million heads of hair before you retire. That's a lot isn't it. Oh well good luck with your new venture.

Default Irisheyes...

Don't feel bad. Hair grows.

Regardless, I did have a sort-of similar situation when my daughter was about 3 years old. She just wouldn't sit still, causing me to make 1 bad cut, which unfortunately had to be matched-up.

So then, her sitting perfectly still since threatened with death, I finished off the job, and which looked like the proverbial haircut while using a pot on ones head for a guide. Almost brought me to tears.

If that wasn't bad enough, the following day while working on the front yard and my pretty little daughter with the potted head was riding her tricycle on the driveway, a woman stranger was walking by. My daughter rode right up to her and proudly said: "MY DADDY cut my hair", surprising-the-hell-out-of-me.

Damn,...if I had any gopher holes on my lawn, I would've tried crawling into one for sure.

Still, and besides: "Hair grows", the point could be made about Little Angels, is that for them,...their DADDIES can do no wrong.

The difference between a good haircut and a bad haircut.....is two weeks. Never need much more than a trim anymore
nothing left..
