What ? Haircut Again !

Yes, this is what we will always say at home when after two weeks my father-in-law would again call for a home service to have his hair cut . And before , when the barber doesn’t answer the phone , he would let his caregiver give him a haircut using the electric razor . And they both will have fun . And the caregiver can really give him a nice haircut , in fairness . We even tell father-in-law to just have a bald head instead , so he won’t be calling the barber every other week to give him a home service . But he doesn’t like that , though it appears that his haircut after all is semi-bald. How often do you have your hair cut ?

@SIMPLYD According to our religion we aren't even allowed to touch scissors to our hair... We abide by 5K's: 'Kesh' meaning hairs (maintain long hairs for both men and women) 'Kanga' meaning a comb (a small one always kept with men or some women) 'Kachh'(Mainly men thing) 'Kada' meaning a single metal bangle (to be always worn by both men and women as a sign of our religion) 'Kirpan' meaning a small holy knife... It's for protection of others irrespective of caste, color, religion, etc and also for defense NEVER for violence. It's stated strictly in our religion. I had got my hair trimmed only 3 times in my whole life *secretely* at first but later disclosed it...

@Yar_Joey I think having a semi-kal haircut is the answer to a very hot weather .

@SIMPLYD when it is hot, my friend, I let my hair cut by the barber. Now, I cut it again, I am now semi-kal (semi-kalbo). . But I protect my head with a bonnet when I go out of the house to attend meetings

@kevin1877uk If i convert it to our currency which is 705 pesos , it is expensive . A haircut here is only about 50 pesos in an ordinary hair salon .

@SIMPLYD No, my hair is short and it seems to grow a lot faster than when I wore it longer so I have to get it cut pretty frequently.

@SIMPLYD Yes my cut grows out after 6 weeks really. I don't think I've had it cut since before Christmas now. Saving pennies. But I feel like I look untidy.

Mine varies quite a bit. I usually make a point of having it cut just prior to taking a holiday, which amounted to roughly every 6 months while I was working. Nowadays I travel more often, but probably have around 4 haircuts during the year.

@SIMPLYD Longer hair tends to be more obvious now that I am older, probably since it is not as thick or heavy.

So that's on the average of every 3 months that you have a haircut . Just like my husband , who wouldn't have his hair cut unless i told him too . And i would tell him that he looks more handsome and younger in shorter hair .

LOL let the man have a few privileges. My husband has only 50% of his head covered and he will go to the barber every fortnight. He always says his hair has grown too long and we always ask him 'where'.

As far as I know there is no home haircutting service here–at least in the area I live. I hate paying to get my hair cut so I get it cut maybe twice a year. I usually get it cut fairly short then let it grow out.

You every 6 months ? Then your hair would be too long already . Me , i think every two months , which remind me to have it cut so no split -ends . So, your brothers too , twice a month . Then , i guess it's a natural thing that FIL wants his haircut every two weeks .

I had my elbow-length hair cut last year on the first day of April after I had a vacation in a nearby province; my hair was ear-level. Now after a year, my hair's length is 2 inches lower than my shoulders, and I plan to have it cut in bob. The problem is I act boyish when I don a short hair.

Maybe it has become his fascination to have a newly trimmed hair all the time. My husband's hair grows so fast so that if i would also want him to have it trimmed every two weeks because he looks younger and handsomer when his hair is shorter but he waits till 3 to 4 weeks before going back to the barber.

Actually he said , his head becomes itchy when the hairs are growing again . Just like you i like my husband hair trimmed too , because like you said , he also looks younger and more handsome when his hair is shorter . But just like your husband he would go to the barbershop about every two months only .

I only cut my hair when Igo to see my cousins in San Fernande as my cousin Juani is a hairdresser. When I get there, she says she´ll call when the beauty parlour is ready and I go there for beauty and gossip. She cuts my hair as she likes and shealways leaves it wonderful.
