When I go to the barbershop, it isn\u2019t much of an adventure. The barber does a little snipping here and there and a little buzzing there and here, and before I know it, I have a haircut. It looks pretty much like it did before I sat down in the chair, just neater and fresher-feeling.<\/p>

Don\u2019t ask me how one\u2019s hair can be fresher-feeling. Maybe when one has as little hair left as I do, when some of it is removed, it lets the cold air on your head.<\/p>

Some people, though, do have adventures in the barber shop. People with thick heads of dark hair will go into a barbershop and come out an hour later with all kinds of unusual things having happened.<\/p>

For example, I saw a fellow come out of a downtown barbershop not long ago with a name shaved in the sides of his head. The name was Amy. It\u2019s a good thing the girl\u2019s name wasn\u2019t Geraldine. He would have run out of room. Shaved into the back of his head was a heart.<\/p>

These hair designs are a little like tattoos, only with less risk. If he and Amy decide to break up, all he needs to do is wear a hat until his hair grows out again, and he can have it cut to look like mine.<\/p>

Also, the haircut was probably no more than $25.<\/p>

If he had gone into a tattoo establishment and had Amy tattooed on his neck, or wherever, it would have cost him a lot more, and even more still when he went into the dermatologist to have it removed.<\/p>

I have seen haircuts that resemble brooms sitting upside down on the top of the man\u2019s head when he emerges from the barbershop. The hair sticks straight up and sometimes is a different color than the rest of the hair. The last one I saw was purple and green on top of a thick head of black hair.<\/p>

Now I realize that odd haircuts are nothing new; people have had odd haircuts for a long time. But those were usually in places like Los Angeles and San Francisco, where you could get arrested for looking normal.<\/p>

Back in the old days (10 years ago) a barber would ask you if you wanted some bay rum on your head when the haircut was over. But those days are long gone. Bay rum is a thing of the past, and maybe for good reason. The air-pollution control people may have thought it was contributing to photochemical smog.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
