My middle name? Hmm.. let's see people usually call me #@$%$*, a $#%!!@, a **#$!$*, an $%%@&&, a big #@%%* stupid %%#@() and a *&&##.. and those were the good names!

Just kidding, my middle name comes from the Bible - Samuel.

It depends...when one of my best friends comes to visit, she'll trim my hair. If not, maybe $15 at the most. Since moving to Arizona, I haven't taken the time to find a quality stylist, like the one I had in San Francisco...oh - I miss her. *sigh*

LOL... LionKing, at least you might have an answer to that question!
I fall somewhere in between LionKing and Mike,,,,, I’m paying $13 (senior discount) plus $4 tip. I’ve found a great little barbershop in the area that has a Vietnamese lady who understands my delicate, thinning, graying hair and makes it into a masterpiece where when I walk out of the shop everyone says how good I look. [they’re the other barbers who don’t have customers and stand around outside looking for business]

My sympathy to Mike and LionKing,,,,,, my Mom always said “don’t feel sorry for yourself ~ just look at what those other people have to deal with!”

Let's just say this year so far I'm not getting haircuts at all.

Hairdresser suggests haircut every 6 weeks. I'm lucky (or she is) if I remember and get a haircut every 10 weeks or longer. Short hairstyle now and I can trim it myself. Plus I'm too much of a tightwad. lol . She only charges $20.00, plus I do tip 20%, 'cause she does an excellent job and is very nice. My biggest problem is just taking the time to schedule an appointment.

Middle name was my paternal grandmother's middle name and also my mother's middle name. And since I was born on that gr.mother's B-Day, so it came to be!!! Not fond of it at all, so blah. 'Mae'. No offence if anyone else has the same.

$27 plus tip: $32 for hair and beard every four weeks.

$10.00 plus tip: $12 every two weeks between haircuts.

Can't be scruffy looking when a new client opens the door!!!!

New gal. Doing a nice job so far (I am very picky about haircuts). Pretty too, which doesn't hurt.

Last one couldn't tell time. I don't wait for appointments. If you're running late, call me so I can call my clients and let them know I'm running Late. If you can't show me this common courtesy you obviously don't value my business or my money. Someone else surely will.

I have no idea where my middle came from and there's no one left alive to ask. My first name, however, came from my mother's father, who died before I was born. We could have been twins we look so much alike.

You're nowhere near as old as I am!

Not only has my hair changed from dark brown to silvery/white/gray, it has also lost all the waviness that used to drive me crazy, and is certainly a lot thinner.

I have been told by many, both male and female, that they are jealous of my hair and it's color. I look in the mirror and have no idea why....?

I pay 12.50 for a haircut (maybe because "cheap" is my middle name)..I tip pretty good though I think grey hair is beautiful and quit coloring my hair (blond) a couple years ago, in hopes that I was all grey..not yet, but doing nicely.. My real middle name is Jane, same as my moms was..

I used to go to Visable Changes and paid $46 then found someone who cuts my hair much better and it's only $25.

hey no sympathy needed for me,I choose to have hair half way down to my butt........to answer I can't remember the last time a scissor touched my hair that's how long it has been.
