Alpo Posted October 3, 2021 Share Posted October 3, 2021 I remember when I was 12 or 13 maybe, I told him to give me a flat top. Flat tops do not work with wavy hair. For the next 35 years or so I told them to give me a regulation haircut. That worked fine. Then nobody knew what a regulation haircut was. They wanted you to tell them what number to put the clipper on. Boy I sure miss barbers. I don't need my hair styled. What I have left of it, I just need cut.

Rye Miles #13621 Posted October 3, 2021 Share Posted October 3, 2021 The haircuts I used to get as a kid was like that picture of the "college contour" but we never called it that. Later when I was older I got the "Hollywood" or the Professional Contour" but never called it that either. I just told the barber to leave the sideburns on. I have a great barber now, it's regular GUYS barber shop, just him and he's a gun guy! I bought a couple guns from him and we did a trade not long ago.

Subdeacon Joe Posted October 3, 2021 Share Posted October 3, 2021 For a while I just said, "Off the collar, off the ears, out of the eyes." Then for a decade or so I just let my hair grow out. When I had to do some serious job hunting my oldest brother said I should get a haircut. Looked at the old charts and found "Businessman's Haircut" which looks much like the "Executive" in the image above. I'd go in and say that at the "Cool Cuts" shop (not many regular barbers around here) and get shunted to the 70 year old lady who has been cutting hair for 55 years. Tell her that and her eyes light up. Of course, the last time I was in for a trim was about 5 years ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slapshot Posted October 3, 2021 Share Posted October 3, 2021 Used to have long hair all through school. Joined the Marines and ever since then I keep it short, like buzzed off without a guard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
