I'm in the UK: went to my usual hairdresser at the start of the fakedemic. Idiots in visors and masks sprayed me and took my temperature when I walked in, told me I could not hang up my coat but had to keep it on my knees when I sat down. Then the stylist refused to come near me because I would not wear a mask. Should have asked if her's wasn't working, but got angry and walked out
Tried to find someplace else without success; same Covid protocols, some even charged extra for the spray! Two years went by, my hair grew longer until I felt I really needed to get it cut. Went to a very basic salon that caters for men, women and children. No masks, no sprays, no appointment needed. Got sheared for a fraction of what I used to .pay. Huge relief.
The lady who cut my hair said "Everyone's had enough, time to just get on with life" Felt quite emotional after, finally getting back to normal - THANK GOD!
I just had my wife give me a buzz cut. She's been doing it now for 2 years. Saves me about 30 bucks a month and I don't have to worry about it. It took her a few cuts to get the hang of it but it's really hard to screw it up. It's so much easier now. I offered to cut her hair for her but she was having NONE of that. She goes to her stylists home and never had to worry about covid protocols. :)
I bought a hair cut kit at costco back when the lockdowns started. I have never looked back. When I want a cut I flick on the #3 guide and buzz away. It also has a left and right guide for around the ears. I doubt I will ever go and pay for a haircut again.
Lol the homies I had that cut hair were doing house calls during 2020. I think since he could charge more for the service it actually accelerated his move out the hood and into a good part of town and the last time I saw him he decided to buy out the other half of the building he was cutting out of.
My friend is a barber and set up shop in his garage. It was all profit for him, so he only was charging $15. I gave him $30 and shook his hand and thanked him for not being a faggot.
