Sorry y’all, I just need to vent a little. I was unhappy with my previous barber and was trying out a new one. It was close by, had good reviews, and the same prices for men and women. Great. But man, my previous barber might not be the most skilled but at least she was quick and knew how to shut the fuck up. This guy took an hour(!) to do my really simple super short cut and talked the entire time. He fixed what I wanted to have fixed fine, but he doesn’t believe in clippers(?) so it’s way longer than I wanted, and I’m just exhausted. Honestly, my entire day has been ruined by the sheer amount of energy that has been sucked out of my soul from having a stranger talk to me for an hour straight for something that could’ve been done in silence in 20 minutes.

    I have found that barbershops where the barbers are obviously ex-convicts tend to be the best for me. They don’t talk unless they have to. There’s no “How was your day, hun?” or “Tell me about your life.”
