Oh yeah, doesn't hurt that Mr. Young was the last barber who ever cut my hair. Started clipping it at home 'bout seven years ago. was easier when _she_ did it, but i manage now.

i've had SR finish-ups by 4 barbers, all men several if not dozens of years older than i....but then i used to go to the stylists! holy crap to have that money back.

i remember wondering what all that stropping was about, of course i get it now.

I'd love to have a full straight shave by a master barber, but know of nothing of the sort here. I'll start hunting those down when i visit big-cities (about once per year). Our state stop testing for it, so they quit teaching it, but some old-timers still use 'em.



yeah, the barber was stubbly today, but then he's semi-retired working from home now.
