Kinda nice having a pretty female provide a haircut, and they tend to do a better job than the men.

I have had the opposite experience. In Illinois, Jim earned my business when I walked in and said, "What do you want, a regular?" Yes! I wanted a regular. The girl barbers I have had to accept most of the time since moving to Georgia want code numbers and they ask all sorts of questions. Jim has been cutting hair since before I was born, 1961. He told me that people come in saying that they want a haircut like so-and-so's and he tells them that as they don't have a face like so-and-so's it will look like $#!*.

I like a barber who cuts, and fast, and it always looks good (my wife is the final judge). I finally found an old guy who cuts my hair well (as graded by Mrs. Sivana), but we are moving again, so I'll have to see what I can find out in Arizona.

LOL - happened to our next-door neighbor. Went in and told the guy "I want to look like (Mr. Inspectorette). Barber told him hell will freeze over first.

want code numbers

Every licensed GA cutter I’ve been to only knows the numbers of the guides they put on the clippers. They cannot cut without the guides.

So almost always I go to unlicensed cutters.

Be sure to take your Hair Cut Records with you.
