correct, the only place I go is to a proper barbers
My son used to go with me, for a haircut, until he ‘discovered’ girls, in Junior High School. From that point on, he went with my wife to the “salon” for his cut. The biggest problem I had was the cost (at that time), a $4 haircut was now $25.
One Friday, his pals came to the door. “Sorry, fellows, Tim is at the beauty parlor”, I told them. Next week, I came home from work. “Dad, you told those guys I was at the beauty parlor - they teased me all day !”. “That doesn’t happen to guys who go to the barber shop” I told him ;)
