The gal that cuts my hair does it but I've never had it done. Heard it's great though

It's something I can do myself. I shave about once a week, don't like that scratchy feeling of a beard coming in, then leave it be for 7-10 days and repeat as needed. Same thing for hair on head, cut it all off every 4-7 weeks.

I hate hair, wouldn't give a shit if I went bald

It’s all I get. A barber that can’t work a straight razor ain’t a damn barber.

Looking forward to my shape up tomorrow...

We have a couple barber shops around me that have been in business since the 60s/70s and they do it. One guy has a little shop, 3 chairs, opens when he wants, closes when he wants. People will literally wait hours to see him.

Ive gotten the shave a couple times (YEARS apart). My skin doesnt react to it well. But its so great I will try and get one every 5 years or so just to see if my skin changed and can handle it. If it ever did, I would would get one with every haircut and probably an extra one in between each haircut.

What do they charge for it anyway ? I'd rather not pay for something I can do myself but say a massage is different. I don't need no manicure either, I can still cut my own nails, give me a free manicure or barber shave, etc., and I'll then decide if I want to do it again.
