Cutting hair

[xwhatsit]

I want to have my hair cut tomorrow.

Where should I go?

Parameters:

1. I live just south of Onehunga -- but CBD is only 50mLs sweat of frantic kickstarting away
2. I'm a student. I know the days of $10 haircuts have passed, but I'd prefer to spend under $20
3. I don't want to look like complete arse

Thank-you for your respectful and polite commentary


啊，可愛的祖國
几時我能夠投進你的怀抱

My guy takes some off for student price, so might pay to ask when you book it if they can do you a 'student' price.

Did you ever see those home hair cutters/ vacuum jobbies on infomercial TV in the wee smalls?

Bodge your own. Attach clippers to your Mum's hoover with duct tape and bob's your auntie.

Plus when you get your hair cut with this method, you instantly stare straight ahead with a fixed grin on your face. Just like on the telly.

But seriously, what's wrong with getting a set of clippers? $20 bucks and last forever if you oil them after each use. Looks great and girlies LURV cutting hair. . .

(Someone else can make the obvious comment about which lot of hair are we talking about etc).

There's a few problems with this method -- 1) I'm long sighted, this will cause me to violate my third parameter and 2) Not all girlies love cutting hair -- if I asked the girlfriend she'd most likely shave it all off and serve it to me in my porridge

Get new girlie?

"Wanted, chicklet. Must love thrills, spills and deforestation of an hirsute nature."

Come up here, I will cut it for you for free! Mind you, you had better love the Maha look for that is the only style I know......LOL

Isn't he bald? Never seen a photo, but he does ride a Triumph, right?

Hahaha. Warkworth is pretty (from my childhood memories of some river), I ought to trek up there some day.

[Mom]

Isn't he bald?

Yeah my bad........lol.........he is bald so I really cant go wrong. Warkworth is a lovely place to live, far enough away from the crap that Auckland can be, and yet close enough to go and play up if you want to. Anytime you fancy a ride up this way just PM either of us, we are easily persuaded to get out for a ride!

This Kanji in your signature, what does it say?

Mr Barber at Greenwoods corner. Costs me $15 for "Grade 2 all over mate"

I cut cams hair once... we had been drinking and the scissors were blunt as... it turned out well hahahhaha

Just go to just cuts... it is like $16 for guys

We share the same barber and hair style..........I find this quite disturbing.



But, Mr Barber is about the best deal around locally, go in the afternoon if you want the younger barber, otherwise you get to discuss tennis with a more elderly gent (he's still a good barber but may not be to your taste).

I think there still are $10 haircut bars? I think ones on queenstreet.

So don't cut it all; then it'll only look half-arsed. Problem solved

Cheers Wish it'd stop raining so I could at least contemplate a longer ride -- not that you guys seem to have that problem today up there!

Not Kanji, not sig, just an excerpt from a poem to say I really ought to know my own city (and its hairdressers! lol) better than this.

Excellent -- I go past there all the time on my way to to work. Remember gazing inside, trapped inside a bus while the RS was laid up. Looking for something a little more complicated than `Grade 2 all over', we'll see what he can do

That said, I do have hair in excess right now, so if the barber's drunk he has ample opportunity to try and try again

Go to the Warehouse - spend $15 on some clippers and you're set!
