While ordering a crew cut is easy, since it’s on the menu, what about other kinds?
Can you just go “I’d like a men/women’s haircut” and leave it at that, or do you need something more specific, like saying you want a Charlestone done by a No. 3 to the sides, and a 4 up top?
“I dunno. I suck at this. what do you think?”
don’t do that at the cheap joints… but otherwise it usually sets up a good discussion.
protip, if you’re wanting a men’s style… go to a barber. usually less expensive, and usually much better at men’s style. (Also, most barbers don’t care if your a man or woman or non binary. they still won’t charge you extra the same way a stylist will charge some one passing as a woman women’s rates for the same thing. it’s pretty absurd.)
My barber is like c$40 now. Yeesh. But he’s really good – He can almost make me presentable!
Yup.
But like, a “stylist” for the same cut would be significantly more.
At least, a round here the middle of the road stylists are all 60ish where the barbers are 35-40.
