My wop barber is the worst. Bitch and brag. All he ever does. Bitch about how hard his job is or brag about how successful he is. 30 minute haircuts and that wop dago cant shut up about himself and what a big shot he thinks he is.

>barber talks about how successful his son in what is obviously a pyramid scheme that targets high schoolers
>"youre about the same age, here let me connect him with you

>>15460344
Go to someone else

>>15460335
>Big titty PR Stylist calls me "honey" and "sweety"
>Constantly feel her breasts rub against me arms and shoulders
>Compliments my hairs thickness.
Im gonna miss her.

I've been seeing my barber my entire life but now I want to leave. He has really dropped his standards the last few years.

>answers his phone or leaves the store while I'm in the chair
>doesn't shut up about anything he is droning on about that day
>won't let you get a word in and when he does he is likely only pretending to listen

>barber doesnt fucking clean away hair afterwards
isnt that fucker supposed to vacuum me or dust me or something
i walked home 2 miles shedding hair in my fucking face
never saw him again

My barber is a tiny Vietnamese lady who says nothing and knows exactly how to cut men's Long hair exactly how I want it. Sadly she works in a "no bookings" shop so it's a game of chance whether I'll get her or some fat intern who wants to give me a foot long bowl cut

>>15460473
i had one of these
i fell hard for her

>>15460774
Yo wtf is it with interns and bowl cuts? Do they think they can reinvent the wheel and make it look good?

Can't relate, I go to barbers for males

>>15460774
Ask specifically for her. I ask for someone specific at my walk-in barber every time.

My shithead barber always reminds me of my thinning hair on the crown of my head.

I go to this sorta hipster-y barber shop and one day I went in and was surprised when the stylist I got turned out to be this ridiculously cute girl who was dressed up like some gothic lolita waifu from an anime. It was pretty much love at first sight, totally would've asked her out if she hadn't mentioned having a BF. She was a good stylist too, gave me one of the best haircuts I've ever had at that place.

>>15460335
My barber is in his 70s and doesn't even remotely show it. He's super cool, I love talking to him, he has great stories

>Cut my own hair
>Zero social interaction
>Save money every time

>Barber visibly bored/annoyed
>I won't shut the fuck up

>>15460335

Though I like conversation in bits and pieces my barber generally doesn’t say a fucking word to me and just gives me a great haircut. Incredibly based.

best barbershop i ever had for this issue was one where my barber worked next to another barber who was his cousin and every customer was basically a neighborhood local that came all the time. since i only got my hair cut every few months every person in the room always had more to talk about then with me so it distracted them from me and i could just relax and get my haircut in peace. they were cool though. didnt mind talking to them but it never went overboard. occasionally gave out beer to customers while they waited

>barber won't stop touching my chest
never went there again, it's a shame because the haircuts were good

>>15460473
i had one like this in middle school. didnt come at the right time

>>15461024
wear spiky shirt

>>15460335
I usually talk to my barber about history or economics maybe a little bit of politics, but then again he knows me since I was 5 so he knows how much of a nerd I am. Luckily we can also talk about some mutual interests like cars and he always tells me if he read something cool about stuff I like. Best thing is that he comes to your house to cut your hair and isn't even that expensive.

>barber washed my hair
>let out a tear
anyone else knows this feel? is not because autism, i'm sure the combination of warm water on my hair + dry body + reclined position, triggers a reaction, it made my eyes feel weird

>>15461038
whenever they wash my hair on that thing where i have to lean my head back at a weird angle my mouth pools with saliva uncontrollably because i cant swallow and i feel like im about to just let it explode out of my mouth. i also get the uncontrollable urge to clear my throat since i cant. every time i wonder if this is the time where im going to accidentally sneeze and rocket a full mouth of spit across the room

>barber won't talk

>>15460335
you can make up a polite way to excuse yourself out of a convo...
i do this all the time so i could be on my phone in peace

IE - "sorry im having a fight with my bf, i dont wanna be rude, but i need to deal with this"

IE - "sorry, i need to do some research for a project im delayed in, i dont mean to be rude but i really need to focus on this"

honestly, i bet most of them will appreciate it bc now they dont have to make small talk - most of them do it for the tip anyway...itll be like a releaf for them..and probably get your shit done faster too

My barber is always late and seemingly doesn’t respect my time but he’s so damn good

barbers knows i'm a sperg the moment I say hi, so they don't even try

havent been to one for 6 years, i am scared bros

me too

>>15461173
No offence, but that seems rather dumb. It might work as a way to get away from a conversation, but here you're just left awkwardly sitting in the barber's chair doing nothing.

>barber spends the whole time talking to the other barbers and ignoring me

>>15461186
im going to one tomorrow, it's been 5 months and im a lil scared too bro

>>15460335
He's just trying to diffuse the awkward atmosphere created by being in a strangers personal space. I prefer the quiet ones too though, and cab drivers, stfu if you want a tip.

Unless you’re a newfuccboi you should already know I don’t care about spelling

>>15461558
Sweetheart, I’ve been here longer than you. Not that that’s anything worth bragging about. It’s just that I usually ignore posts by tripfags.

>>15460335
>went to a hipster barber shop thinking they know how to cut my hair how I want
The only thing they knew how to do was give the same identical undercut style to everyone, even if you show them a completely different style and recommend shitty edgy teenager movies.

>>15460597
dude barber is so chill that he's fine taking phone calls cause you guys are tight - at least that's how it is with my gyro guy when i talk to them for the past 15 years

>>15461105
Fucking kek. Peak autism.

>>15461567
Ofc you can take phone calls. It’s called speaker phone. What kinda flex was that?

just picturing this wine aunt pretending to listen to a lock screen phone while the girl awkwardly does her hair

>>15461584
It’s wine MOM
And there’s plenty of shit you can do on your phone. Last time I was at the salon I literallly posted a selfie with foils and all.

Sorry I hate mindless/pretending you give a rats ass about the convo.
But you go on being a fake bitch

>>15460335
> barber wont stfu about giving him $35 for the cut while i head out

>>15461590
>It’s wine MOM
we both know that you're not a mother, that your chances of becoming one are really slim and that you're compensating for your lack of female realization by tripfagging on a board full of teenagers who need help to dress and groom themselves

>>15461600
Why’d you take your name off?

>>15461611
? twas in jest, chill
also you offend me by implying I'm someone on your filter list, I never used names or tripcodes

>>15461554
Jesus fuck, what are you doing in there for 2.5 hours? Do you down a box of wine and sway around all over the place while they're trying to cut your hair?

>pretend to be on your phone which just makes it harder for them to do their job

i don't know if i should return there next time

>>15462340

nobodys pretending dude

otherwise you might as well talk to them
wtf you people have to be so goddamn difficult

>>15462369
He's wrong anyway, I'd cum inside you babe x

I want an old man barber who will talk to me when Im getting a haircut. Where I live there are only some hipsters salons where its exactly like >>15461565 (+ rap songs), and primarily women's hair salons where it feels awkward to be as a man and the haircuts arent the best

>turk barber makes fun of my long hair
I don't know why any barber would do that, that just makes me not want to come again.

>>15463323
Based homophobic roach.

>>15462369
>I'm not pretending to be retarded, I'm just actually retarded!
Having a phone next to your ear (where they are trying to cut) is retarded whether it's for real or you're just pretending to be on a call

>>15464436
Who’s the fck said anything about a phone in my ear?
TEXTING douche - I’m refn to texting

>>15464461
Are you drunk again?

>>15460881
Holy fuck imagine getting mogged this hard by your barber

>>15464461
Lol every single time this thing gets called out for being dumb, she tries to switch it around and accuse the other person of being stupid. Once you understand these people, they have the exact same responses, almost zombie like.

Nobody is going to pretend to text writing out a fake message while they get their cut cut, a message the barber can probably see, that's more awkward than politely replying to what you are asked.

>>15464461
>be on the phone
nobody uses that wording for texting, retard. that means using the phone AS A TELEPHONE you dumb tranny 45%er

>>15463323
He's flirting.

>>15463412
No one is gayer than the turks.

How would a barber deal with this and what core is this?

>>15461330
How did it go?

>>15464668
Think you have to go to a Jewish barber for that sort of thing.

Thats why after the initial conversation "how are you/hows the family/hows work/school etc." I just gradually dial down my answers. The entire salon now knows that after the opening socially required interaction that I prefer silence and they don't take it weird they just know I'm quiet.

>>15464637
>>15464637

This is made worse by the fact that mine are pierced so I always get aroused when it happens.

cutting your hair is just as boring for the barber as it is for you.

I miss u Jake :'(

>>15460335
This is why I stopped going to barbershop and growing my hair.
Does anyone cut their own hair?

>>15461038
Probably ASMR.

>>15461401
Just go to another barber, by growing your hair you've actually accepted him at subconscious level.

>>15462365
>i jack off under the hairdressing cape
This is why I keep coming to this site, awkward stories of anons always make me feel good.
Why were you fapping?

>>15463323

And he sees you as respectable man, and just doesn't want you to turn up a fag.

>>15461401
>tfw anon realizes the old man gave his bro free haircuts because his bro promised him anon's bussy

Anybody have experience going to female barbers?
I'm under the impression women have better sense of style then male barbers, and better experience with handling somewhat long hair.
Also if my personal space is getting invaded I'd prefer to be by a woman.
And your gay stories are freaking me out.

>>15468697
yh you know I'm pitching a tent through the hairdressing gown. I make sure they see it while they wash my hair

>>15468713
I asking seriously though.
I tried different barbershops, and they really don't know how to deal with my hair since it's so fine, when using the clippers the strands get stuck between the heads and would yank on my scalp, so they would end up using scissors and ruin my hair style, and go home and crew cut my hair.

>hair style long enough where going to a barber won't cut it
>have to go to salons instead
>everything is 3-4 times more expensive for some of the same procedures

>>15468719
female barbers are not much different? they can vary in skill as much as male barbers do. Some hairsalons/barbershops websites list out the sort of qualifications and experience of each stylist so you can ask for one suitable to your desired hairstyle. male barber or not, if you've never checked maybe that's where you're going wrong? instead of walking in consider calling them or booking a consultation with some reference photos ready

>>15468774
I tried all of the barbers in my area.
The only one I found that actually agreed to use scissors smells really bad and only knows one haircut.

I really really hate going to barbers, not only they keep talking, and waste money and time.
I always end up looking worse than before the hair cut.

>>15460335
I don't know that feel, since I use to go to black barbershops. I do miss watching bootleg movies or old concerts recordings of old R&B singers while getting my haircut.

>>15468697
I've had good luck with them. Most non-ethnic male barbers around here are flaming homos and I think a straight woman has a better sense of what looks good on me than a gay dude does.

>>15469043
Would they be OK with requesting boy-ish haircut?

>>15468798

this is why I'm a skinhead (also I hate niggers and kikes)

started cutting my own hair when I was 14, havent stopped since. 29 now, never going to a barber ever again. They fucking talk the entire time, it nver looks like I want it, it's too pricey, I can't go whenever I want, fuck all of that.

>>15473018
Any tips you can share?
I always hated going to barbers, and my regular one recently died with corona.
So I really don't want to go.
How do i cut the back hair?
And to be more precise, the hair on the back have grown past the hairline.

>>15473197
Get a nice Sharp pair of scissors. Using regular ones will fuck your ends.

I cut my split ends...but I have wavy/curly hair so if it’s not even it’s not noticeable.

>>15473197
Dependant heavily on your style. For the most part, get a shaver and put the clip guard on. If you do like a 5 on the top and a 3/4 on the back and sides it will naturally easily blend in together. You just need to look in a mirror and use a handheld one in your hand behind your head. Just requires a little practice.

>>15473217
>it's not noticeable

>>15473226
How to get rid of the mullet that's on the back?

>>15473230
Just get a shaver, put a #5 or so on it, and buzz it.

If you don't have some really out there hair style, or if you don't want a skin to hair fade and just have normal hair, shaving the back and sides 2 sizes shorter than the top is so easy. Only if you are going from low numbers like a 0 to a 2 does it require more skill.

Start longer and if you're good, bring the numbers down. It's amazing once you can do it because you can have a new cut whenever you want and no more barbers.

>>15460335
>haircutter is a girl who's my age and tries to flirt the entire time despite her being fat and me wearing a wedding band
Why are they like this? Obviously I'm married and obviously you're fat, I wouldn't be interested anyway. Ugh, so annoying

>>15473799
Still better than my barber.
I think he only knows one hair cut, because no matter what I request I always end up the same.
But it always empty so that's a big plus for me.
