How many of your wives go to the beauty parlor?
versus, same question?

I think Cindy is the only regular poster here who is a woman, and IIRC
she didn't go to the beauty parlor in the first place, but if I've got
that wrong, same questions in reverse to Cindy.

I got two haircuts since Covid hit.** I didn't get one from March until
September.
Using common sense, I try to reduce the risk.* The first one I got as
soon as barber
shops were allowed to re-open, figuring it's probably better to be among
the first
customers.

I cut my own hair and have always cut my wife's hair.

Hair cuts are for the common people.* Some of us are genetically superior
and have eliminated the need for haircuts.* Took a few years but was worth
it.

Why do I think your situation is more due to nature, rather than choice??

A friend with Ed's type hair told me that it cost him more to get a haircut
as the barber had a more difficult time finding the hair.

More likely to find it in ears and nostrils than on top where it used
to be.

Group went through the DYI haircut thing months ago and there was a clipper
shortage. I had an old clunky one but found one at the drug store
surprisingly cheap and have been doing my own since.

My hair is thinning but unfortunately is still all there so top is a little
tougher to clean up with scissors. Still looks acceptable.

Wife has been doing her own all year and it looks fine. She had stopped
going to her hairdresser who worked out of her house early this year when the
hairdresser stopped working due to health problem.

I do my own too in about the same manner, except mine stays about one
quarter inch long -- the only guard for the clippers I have.
