In Need Of A New Barber

  • I really like my barber... as a person. Of course, me only visiting him, at the current rate, once per every other month, I barely know anything about him. This isn't a big deal, considering that I feel as though he forgets who I am and what I do for a living. In fact, the only reason why I stumbled upon, what I believe to be, his family's business is because it happens to be right next door to my trusted tailor, who recommended me to them. With my tailor having a lot of my trust in terms of taste and style, I obliged, and I've been going to that same barber for some years now. However, the main cutter I keep getting set up with always has a tendency to stray away from my actual desired style, resulting in an odd "drill instructor" style that I will try and stray away from now on. And on that same note, I notice that the line up he gives me is pretty wonky at times. Among other issues, this all seems to occur whenever I ask for a simple buzz cut on top, along with the usual fade I'm obligated to get for the military. Now, having allowed my hair to grow out for a few weeks, I've been thinking about how I wish to go about future haircuts, and I believe I've come up with a solution. Like I said, these issues with my barber only typically occur whenever I opt for a buzzcut, or anything in that realm of choices. These issues are minimized, if not dismissed altogether, whenever I only select a fade while maintaining whatever amount of hair I have on top. So, my primary solution is to only use that barber for simple fades needed for military regulations, and whenever I seek a buzzcut for special occasions, I will seek out a new barber. Given time, if I am successful in my endeavors in finding a good "buzz" barber, he/she may very well end up replacing my current barber altogether. I don't know; I usually don't put this much thought into small issues like this, but I guess that this entry will serve more as a personal note for me whenever the moment comes up for another haircut. I used to cut my own hair, for multiple reasons, but with the Marine Corps, I would not recommend.
