    Had my head and face shaved in Toulons when the submarine I was on pulled in there.

    I don’t remember my barber looking anything like this, though.

    Did I get ripped off?

    I’m almost 30 for fuck’s sake, I know it’s not rational

    But I have this impulse go to a barber like that. It’s just a kind of refreshingly different vibe I guess?

      Maybe she put some thought into. “I have a great set of tits. I am not going to do any porno stuff. What legit job can I get where I get to show off my massive tits”

          Some Portographic actors and actress have incredible skills specific to them doing porn that people do want to pay for. Its not just about having great looking bodies but showing the sex act as pornographically as possible to the viewers at home. There’s skill behind every scene. Even in those scenes where the actor or actress gets used like a strawberry cheesecake sandwich, there’s still skill to do that. For that reason I don’t do porn. But I would if I could.

          Fine, how about “I have a great set of styling skills but am also willing to show off my personal appearance to maximize tips”

    I go to see the same guy every time. Have done for years. We talk a bit, but we don’t need to. He knows what I want and cracks on.

    Yes, and I found it quite refreshing. It inspired me to get a straight razor, which was quite nice to use. Though keeping it adequately sharp was annoying enough that I switched to a double bladed safety razor, which is also quite nice to use.

    …why is this a shitpost?

    As pleasant as that looks, it matters not to me.

    I ask my barber for the “full works”, sit back, and close my eyes for half hour listening to whatever generic chilled dance playlist he’s got going on YouTube. It could be a dude, a woman, or anything in between, it doesn’t matter.

    When he slaps my shoulders and says “ok boss, what do you think?”, that’s my cue to get up and leave.

    It’s my brief moment of indulgence every other month or so. Bliss.

      You forgot the bit where they hold up a second mirror and you nod awkwardly, mumbling something that’s not quite ‘yep, that’s the back of my head, yep, I agree, you have cut my hair, thank you for showing me the proof’

        In fairness, I always ask for a really straightforward clippers cut which even Stevie Wonder would find remarkably difficult to fuck up.

        Nah the barber I use is sound as fuck. Happy to throw about witty banter, but equally happy to shut up and do his thing when I’m just about asleep.

        My barber and I do a joke every time about how he’s going to write ‘twat’ on the back of my head some time.
