    I go to a barber shop...the first time I walked in they were all in shock. Nowadays, it is not often that a girl walks in (and into a traditionally male-client oriented shop) wanting a clean-shaven head, they said. Lol!!!!

    Aww my heart hurts. I'm sad to hear so many bad experiences. I'm a stylist/barber in Seattle, and I'd like to think I'm a damn good one too. There are definitely stylists out there who don't listen or execute poorly, but we're not all bad at our jobs or "scissor happy".

    And Bepeejaye...I love to shave a girl's head...it's so much fun!

    I quit cutting mine when I retired from the military in 2010. I do get it trimmed every once in a while by a stylist, and at some point I will donate it for cancer patients to an outfit similar to Locks of Love. The difference being they accept the amount of gray hair I have.

    I cut my husbands, and will trim my bangs when needed. I'm in the middle of having hairstylist mess up ...growing out! Ended up going to the hubs barber two months ago to get him to fix the mix up and now my long beautiful hair is shoulder length...had it cut really short last spring. No more cutting until June, than I'm only trusting the Barber! :drinker:

    Had a really bad experience about four years ago when I had to go to another hairdresser to cut my hair completely off to fix the damage. Ever since then, I've been doing my own hair.

    Usually my wife trims mine, profile pic is right before I donated a foot to locks of love. 20 years of buzzing it down to the scalp, seven years of "normal" hair and then didn't cut it for three years to be able to donate it. Back down to below the shoulders again, probably donate again in another year or so.

    My family has been hit hard by cancer. I will donate my hair once again at some point. Last time I donated 17 1/2 inches.

    Not anymore, I find it a relaxing way to spend lunch. But I used to have a pair of clippers that kept it at USAF standards quite nicely. It became a once-a-week routine.

    I just take the trimmers to my head every few weeks, there isn't enough left to justify paying someone to cut it lol

    Similar story, figure I'll keep donating as long as I can. I'm one of the lucky ones, mine is still growing fast. Donated last August, probably would be able to do it again by Christmas time.
