    Different lady at my barber, so I show her a picture on my phone… “This is how I like it cut…” “No problem, would you like a beard trim, too?” “No, just blend it in at the sideburns”

    I’ve actually been working on my beard recently. I used to keep it pretty steady at a size 1 when it came to a beard clipper, and tapered to 1/2. I had finally managed to let it grow out to a 2-1.5 while keeping it neat.

    So the first thing she does is take a straight clipper with no comb over half my cheek… Nothing for it now, guess who’s getting a beard trim… she took the beard down to a 1/2 - 1 and it’s only along my frigging jawline…

    I went from a silver fox to looking like Evil Mr. Bean in 45 minutes…

      Been going to mine for 30+ years, his father before him. Perfect every time. If he retires I'm just going to let it grow.

        Come to my town and have Angelo take care of you.

        He's been doing my hair for 25 years.

        I do my own beard.

        The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

          I was planning on doing my own beard. I’m sure you know better than anyone how hard it is to grow out a beard while keeping it look neat and professional. That was 2 months worth of careful work.

            I once had one done by this slip of a girl in Canada. Because it was starting to recede at the front I'd tried to explain to her that I didn't want it to look like a cover-up, and she completely misunderstood what I meant and gave me what she described as a 'George Clooney'. Mrs. Phibes and I both agreed that it was more of an Adolf Clooney.

            I was only joking

                I went to Paul for 37 years.

                Then I moved here 5 years ago and bought this

                Just buzz it, I figure I have saved over $1,200

                  Cut my own hair since I was 19. I guess I saved enough to buy a car.

                    Are you kidding? She gave me a Hitler haircut at no extra charge! Of course I tipped.
