I've just been using chain salons for over half my life, so I'm used to strolling in and getting a quick, cheap cut and being done with it.

Lately I've had an urge to get a better quality haircut, but I just can't bring myself to walk into a barber shop, for some reason. No idea what to ask for, or even if I need to call ahead.

I get anxiety over the weirdest shit

    The last barbershop I went to was staffed by the old white guys who go to the burger place to drink coffee on Sunday mornings . I made the mistake of complaining about my neighbor's gardner firing up his blower at 7am. The rest of my visit the two barbers tried to get me to say racist shit. Also they gave me a little boys haircut and parted it on the side like Donald Rumsfeld.
