...And Bad Haircuts. 

One advantage the male barbers have over the female ones is the fact that they can't get pregnant. Like my usual barber(ette?) did. So I went to the lady she chose to run the business while she's gone, and in my opinion, she made a bad choice. I cut hair better than that girl. (Not that I'm bad, I had lots of practice and returning customers while I was in college, but I'm not a pro (and she is), and I never charged for my cuts (and she does).) So I think I'll go look for a new barber the next time... I've had a feeling it's the time for change for a while now, and I've been given a perfect excuse. At least, until my regular barber(ette?) gets back.
