You pay for more than a haircut

Well, man...I hate paying $25 for a haircut when I don't even talk to them. My mother used to tell me, "You need to talk more when you get your haircut! That's what you're supposed to do! It's supposed to be fun to talk while they cut your hair!" I was always like, "Meh." One of those $25 haircuts by the way was by a rude hairdresser that whispered...but whispered harshly...like one of those "loud whispers" commenting how much dandruff I had...ugh -_- so annoying.

Now a days, I trim my own hair at home most of the time. The last time I got my hair cut was...4 years ago? I was supposed to get it last week, but hair cutting dude canceled his appointments for a family emergency. Was not too happy, he works at a beauty school and is an old classmate and one of my husband's old co-workers and haircuts are like $10-$15 for adults so I'm all for it lol. Maybe after this long, I should just invest in the hair cutting kits or something on Amazon.

Speaking while getting hair cut is tiring to the cutter.
Just think how much he/she has to talk all day long.

I like to be quiet and let them concentrate on the cut.
SOME talk is necessary to be social...but I'd say that should be it.

With my anxiety disorder, my wife has cut my hair for decades. I could care less about the barber, it's the other customers I never cared for. Sometimes a barber would be so entertaining/informative that I really enjoyed my haircut. But, one day my wife offered to cut my hair. I found myself going to the barber less and less after that. Then I relied on my wife completely to cut my hair. I didn't even realize it was due to my anxiety disorder until I went on disability. Then a lot of the reasons for my quirks became crystal clear. What a burden I've been to her.

I can relate to feeling a burden to the spouse part. My career has been sporadic. I am more a breadeater than breadwinner. :)
 
I sometimes find it painful to chat to hairdressers. not all the time. sometimes we click. or if I am in the mood for small talk. as you know, my sense of humour doesnt click with everyone. :)
 
I only just found out there are different shampoos for different hair types, I thought they were all the same. It's like when I actually sometimes decided to get a haircut and the hairdresser always assumes I know what I want when I'm like I just want a haircut and it turns into 100 questions would you like this much off, that much around the sides, is that ok, and so on. I just leave it to the hairdresser they should know best.

When it comes to haircuts and haircare I got no idea.
