My barber is ripping me off.
He charges me the same as someone with hair.
New York City is utterly insane, and the Head Crazy is Bloomberg.
Do the bars still have Ladies’ Nights and give them free or reduced priced drinks while men pay full price?
Started shaving the old gourd when the cul-de-sac look wasn’t working for me anymore. :)
Did everyone see the original article -— the guy says he left the Soviet Union and that he’s feeling like he’s back under Communism, in NYC?
how stupid is this? all the barber does is raise the price of a man’s cut to match a women’s cut
Sad but true.
They will now start charging by the time it takes - for example $1.50 / minute with a twenty minute minimum.
3 points for excellent use of a quote from that revered document.
I go to barber shops. I stay away from anyplace that claims to do “styling” or that wants to involve liquids of any kind in any way. As a result, women are non existent in the shops I frequent.
I think this guy’s solution is simple. Whack off the ladies’ hair in the same way he trims the men. I’ll bet none of the women come back. Problem solved.
“.....visit the pool but women were allowed for free.”
Works for me!
Union public employees.

I can’t believe the Illinois judge said that...
Ground work for a directive 10-289?
Kogut tried to reason with the city inspector.
So funny! I can’t believe it, he tried to “reason” with the city inspector. I guess Kogut didn’t realize where he was .... NYC (aka OZ).
People need to wake up and realize where electing leftist Democrats eventually leads. Their political ideology demands that every facet of our lives be somehow controlled by the government bureaucracy. This brain-dead harassment of a poor barber by some arrogant, overpaid New York City bureaucrat over something as absurd as charging more for a woman's haircut than a man's and not having a cash register that prints receipts (that can be hand-printed just as easily) with insanely high fines that probably equal a weeks income or more for the barber represents the kind of government leftist politicians dream about.
That the Brooklyn barber, a refugee from Communism, sees the parallels between the Communist government in 'the old country' and what the New York City government is doing under the leftist billionaire mayor, Michael Bloomberg, should send chills down the spines of Manhattan residents. The tragedy is that it won't.
