NFT: How Often Do You Get A Haircut?

RicFlair : 3/24/2015 3:15 pm
I'd like to do it monthly, but always put it off until I look extra shaggy.
I never get a haircut..  
JCin332 : 3/24/2015 3:18 pm : link
I get em all cut..
God Damnit.  
RicFlair : 3/24/2015 3:19 pm : link
.
about every two months  
Greg from LI : 3/24/2015 3:19 pm : link
.
Usually about every 5 weeks.  
Mad Mike : 3/24/2015 3:21 pm : link
Can push it to 6, but it's pretty untidy at that point.
Twice per week.  
fivehead : 3/24/2015 3:22 pm : link
.
Roughly every 4-6 weeks  
Wuphat : 3/24/2015 3:24 pm : link

Then I became a dad. In the 13 months since, I've had 2.
Every two to three weeks ....  
Beer Man : 3/24/2015 3:30 pm : link
Number 2 clipper over the entire head.
Every week  
BLUATHRT : 3/24/2015 3:34 pm : link
Gotta keep that shit tight!
Between 3-5 weeks  
Jay in Saratoga : 3/24/2015 3:35 pm : link
Given that my hair "frows out" on the sides I like to go every 3 weeks, but realistically I make it every 4 or 5 weeks.

that the "middle-aged guy crew cut" look would work for me. If I tried it now, I'd just look like I'm 11 years old.

Yeah...I was wondering why anyone would pay for a haircut like yours. This makes perfect sense.
2-3 weeks

And the damned line at the barbershop on Sunday afternoon. My wife hated how looked with no hair, but since she couldn't see me on deployments I'd just shave it all off then.

Please...some Asians have bowl cuts, some have long K-Pop cuts, and some have faded short cuts among many others. Because you're a racist asshole and think that we all look alike doesn't mean that there aren't varieties in our hair style, you Pennsyltucky yokel fuck.
Haven't cut it in three years  
MiamiHurricaneFan : 3/24/2015 3:58 pm : link
have had it trimmed slightly but I tie it back.

I have thick black hair and too short it sticks up. having it long I can tie it back and never spend money on a haircut.

That was weak. Seriously...why are you even getting involved if you don't even know how to make a proper Asian accent joke? Go haze yourself, Marine.
True story  
Greg from LI : 3/24/2015 4:13 pm : link
When you PCS from Okinawa, TMO sends guys to pack up your stuff. So this crew of Japanese guys came to get my things ready to ship. I had a big footlocker I used to ship a bunch of crap to Uzbekistan and back. The packing crew listed it in the inventory as a "foot rocker".

Swear to god.
Every 6 weeks.  
Mike in Long Beach : 3/24/2015 4:16 pm : link
When I moved to a new area about 2 years ago I couldn't find a decent barber for months... this ranged anywhere from guys who charge $13 a cut to a guy who'd make house calls and charged $60. No one could get it right. I share this only because this experience made me realize how often I actually get a cut.

Finally found the best barber I've ever had and it was at the closest barber shop to my apartment. 14 bucks, 18 after tip. He barely speaks English so I don't have to bother with small talk. The man is amazing.

I think that's what I hate the most about going to the barber......making the small talk.

I will say, however, when a girl cuts my hair I like the experience. Small talk is encouraged :)

SomeFan : 3/24/2015 9:44 pm : link
the more often I get my haircut. The more hair I had, the fewer haircuts per year.

It is probably gggabout once every 6 weeks.

Damn. I'm not even kidding about what I said. Since 2010, I've gotten maybe 5-6 haircuts, and I've never gotten more than 2 in a year. I got one the day of the Minnesota game Monday night in October 2013...then one more in December 2014. Idk why, just lazy.
I get one every month like clockwork.  
JerryNYG : 3/24/2015 10:19 pm : link
I trim my beard myself, though. $14 for the haircut and I usually give the girl a $20 since she leans her breasts on me while she is cutting my hair.

Simple pleasures for this married man.

Good to hear RC02XX! It's one of my pet peeves when my reserve unit shows up for their quarterly drill. I always ask the reserve unit Commander..."how hard is it for your guys to get a haircut every three months?"

Haha...yeah, my hair grows fast and thick, so by the time drill time approaches, I've got a Chia-pet growing on my head. And even if I am a reservist at the Pentagon, the Marines still are sticklers for the appearance standards.

I mean, there are limits to the leniency, but I've seen many an officer who was sporting much closer to a 1-3 fade than 0-3.
