Price of a Haircut

Paying for someone to cut your hair is so pre covid

No harm in supporting local businesses pal.

I had a great chat with him today , some business man came in then and started drooling over the polish wan . These guys in suits think it’s ok , id love if their wives saw it .

Same here. I got what was called a “Two” on the back and sides.

Is he Polish himself or where’s he from with a name like that? He’s over here donkeys years I’d say mind you. The Polish girl is only in there about two years.

Turkish names translates as Alexander, here since 01 an absolute gent and one of the best barbers around.

Was he in Figaro’s to start around 2001 do you know?

Not sure could very well have been, he had his own shop in Shannon around 2008 that’s where I first met him.

Reason I ask is there was Turkish fella in there back then who was an absolutely lovely fella. Another Turkish guy who imported tractor parts into Ireland got him the gig at Figaro’s.

I know Brian and Eric in Figaro’s a long long time but, tho sound, wouldn’t get my haircut there. Too fancy for my needs. But if the Turkish lad you’re talking about in blades is same fella as one they had back then, I’d almost seek him out for a cut as he was absolutely bang on, always in good spirits.

Must a take a peek in Blades when down home ahead of Xmas

Barbers for 9. Just bate by a tardy yard by a father and his three wee redheaded twins. They cost me a full hour but the preferred barber just sauntered in and beckoned me to the chair. She told me I could take off the stupid mask and I told her she could do the same. We are in broad agreement that it’s a very bad flu but not any worse than some other years, that the tests are rubbish, that the antrim hospital story was a hoax, that there’s something more behind this and that anyone wearing a mask outdoors is “nothing but a tit”. We expressed mutual disdain for young people in their 20s who went along like sheep while their counterparts in Hungary, italy, somewhere in America etc were on the streets protesting.
She also told me very confidentially that she would be cutting hair from the house during lockdown
9 British pounds, I gave her 20 and wished her a happy Christmas. An excellent haircut.

Finally. (They looked like twins)

I got my first cut of 2020 yesterday. 15 notes.

I got my eyebrows trimmed today. The flame in the ear is gone alright.

The flame is the only job. Could replace scissors and clippers altogether I reckon
