You Want How Much?

Well, I Just Ain' Gonna Be Able To Do It!!

Fifteen bones for a haircut? Geddafukoudahea!

Look, I realise I've migrated closer to yankeeland. I know shit's gonna be more expensive: Food. Beer.

Buds...

But honest, it's a freakin' butchering of dead protien, folks! I mean, in H-town I coulda got a choppin', left a sizable tip, and strode home with a sixer of Busch tall boys for all that!

Sheesh!! Never even been there, but suddenly I ken I aint in Kansas anymore, Tonto...

Oh, I'll eventually engrain meself to the fact that forking over, minimally, twelve clams for a mediocre snip will be de riguer. But, NOT TODAY!!!

Today? Twelve tokens are better one-for-one'd...

Slainte, volk!

Buy some clippers. Pay for themselves in two haircuts. Not too good at it? Wear a ballcap! Ha ha! Seriously, you can't hardly screw up a buzz with a #2 guard, everything comes out the same. Unless you enjoy shelling out 15 bucks every month or two....

$15.00 bucks is cheap!

When I get my hair trimmed it's $30.00, when B's gets her hair done and has color added $90.00.

Now y'all know the real reason Catman has long hair. LOL! j/k for men it's only $10.00. He just can't find anybody that can do a decent flat top.

So, I say go with MayB's idea, if you don't wanna pay $15-do it yourself.

Or check around for the local beauty school. Students have to practice & they are usually well supervised. Our local went up to $5 this past fall from $3. Just know that they are beginners and take a loooong time if very new. Haven't had a bad haircut yet.

Mr. Mayberry, Great Minds...

My senitments all day bouncing around: get some Wohls and buzz away! pay for themselves in a few trims. #5 and run 'em @ every angle.

Thanks, Bro!

The adage 'apples and oranges'...
I knew the B beta! And I'd foller in Catman's , erm, footsteps? but I gots thick curly stuff it gets to lengthening! The short, all-american look suits me mas bientot.

Thanks, Miss Felinae!

Good idea, Steph! We do have several colleges nearby; bound to be some who needs not only practice but a few side simoleans as well...
