| - ok, i'm done. done i tell you. i cannot get a consistent haircut from these folks. my hair is simple. Number 3 on the sides, trimmed on the top, kinda "boxy" style, and not a uniform buzz cut. I only have one cowlick at the crown of my noggin.
these past 3 times, i tell the lady my simple hair cut. i have had to return later in the day or the next day to get all the straggler hairs, the uneveness, and basically my whole head re-cut. and they don't even get that right. they just run the clippers over it to even it out and i leave with a standard buzz cut.
but this last chance was the last straw. the same lady, whom i dreaded seeing when i walked in and she said "come on back" was free and thus was going to cut my hair. she spent an inordinate amount of time cutting my hair, using all types of fancy scissors and giant plastic pitchfork looking things, but mostly spent the 45 minutes talking and really....not focusing on cutting my hair. when she was finished, i immediately noticed again, how she did not even bother to trim my cowlick. when i pointed it out to her, she says "i'm not finished, i just wanted you to see how it looks so far"...Malarky! she then got out the clippers and basically gave me a very, very, very uneven buzz cut. and....the past 3 cuts from her, i still have all the scraggly hairs above and behind my ears that i just trim when i get home!
since i left with it so short, i would have been pointless to get it corrected....that would just entail me shaving my head myself. so i'm going to listen to my wife and go to a barber or pay a little more at a salon or just go shaggy. i know it's only 15 bucks, but my hair is not that complicated and i guess i just expected a decent haircut every once in a while. but 3 in a row....the fool is me.
