A Sea Of Red

The first question is, do you go to a barber or a hair stylist? And do you pay under or over $10 for a haircut? Do you tip?

My long-time barber, Don Blanks, died several years ago, and now I go to Hunt's Barbershop on 221 near my house, which I'm fairly pleased with, but I was just wondering where everybody else goes, or do you cut your own?

I think we've had this thread before, but I'm too lazy to look.

I go to Mastercuts (mostly because I didn't know of any decent barbershops in town). Its 13.95 for a Adult Cut plus shampoo so its not that bad off. Id like to find a real good shop that can give a guy a good fade though.

I go to Mastercuts and pay 3.95 For a Childs Shampoo (Washing) cause I know a girl that works there , and yes i tip

me and bryson cut each others hair and half the other people on the hall. were pretty skilled. you can go bald, 1,2,3,4,5, or 6 all over. and we'll attempt to make your neck line straight, but don't count on it. tips are accepted

When I was going to UVa, I loved going to this old barbershop near the grounds (campus) that had like 6 or 8 chairs. That's where Howie Long gets his flat top haircut, but I never saw him in there.

I think Jerry went to someplace called the A-1 Barbershop, but I never looked it up to see where it is. The Timberlake Barbershop on the corner of Timberlake & Waterlick is one of those old fashioned barbershops. I like the ones that still use lather and a straight razor around your ears and neck.

There's a barbershop at the end of my street that I've never tried. I'll get back to you.

I'd love to have a John Allan's here:

My wife cuts my hair. She doesn't know how to style it or anything, so she just buzzes it off every month. When she forces me into a real haircut about once a year, we go to Sage Tryall on Wards Ferry back behind Best Buy. Not a fan of paying for my hair to be cut, but the head massage is nice every once in a while.

In college mastercuts was my place. I went to the barber shop right at Fort Early once, but that's really only good for a buzz cut (and a hot shave).

When I was going to Ole Miss, we had two 4-week summer semesters, and my traditional activity between semesters was to go to his old fashioned barbershop on the square in Oxford to get my beard cut off and get a shave to begin the second semester. The old barber would first buzz the beard with outline clippers, and then he's recline the barber's chair and put a steaming hot wet towel over your entire face, with only a small opening where your nose was to breathe. After your whiskers were nice and soft from the hot towel, then he's lather you up with a shaving mug & brush, and shave you with a straight razor, just like you used to see in the old westerns on TV. Very relaxing, and I loved the smell of those old barbershops.

up by ledos there is a new place. it's currently $5.99 for a cut. i about fell out when she rang me up for 6 bucks. it's only for a little while longer though. a promo for the grand opening... which was 6 months ago. hey, i told her to "clean it up," and she did great. i'll take it.

however, jdub's free hair services are a lot better on the wallet.
