If all that my hair does, is grow back, again.

I've been asking myself that question, since I've gotten payed, last week. Why should I be forking out $20 for a haircut, when I could use that money to buy a mini Routemaster, or a music CD/DVD? I use up enough of my money to buy food, and cleaning products amongst other things. Why should I spend that money on my hair, when I could spend it on something more exciting?

I've been looking forward to getting my next haircut and wondering when it will be time to get it.

My hair's getting a little long, and I feel like I need to cut it. I don't like it to get in my eyes. Of course if I could get away with just wearing a ponytail I would. I work somewhere where the dress is business, so long hair on guys is kinda frowned upon.

I don't particularly enjoy getting my hair cut, but I get it cut to stop split ends which keeps my hair healthy. :P

That's why I shave my head, it's free and then- three months until I have to worry about it again.
Of course, that won't work for everyone.

I used to change my hairstyle all the time, now I can't be bothered. I quite like it how it is now and I just get the layers trimmed to get rid of split ends.

I recently got my haircut due to popular demand. cost me £9. I was expecting it to be nearly like £20.

I like the way my hair looks, but I'd rather have long hair that flows in the wind and a short beard.

I despise haircuts. As such, my hair is now over 3 foot long. And to be honest, I like that.

I shave my head. Easy.

The title of this thread made me think of Louis Jordan's song "What's The Use of Gettin' Sober (When You Gonna Get Drunk Again)".

About 90% of the reason I go to my barber is his father, who started the shop, way back when was a flying tiger(AVG, not AAC version) way back when. It's fun to go down and swap stories with him about the service. I suppose it's my own version of hero worship, but it is worth the twenty in my opinion.

i need to cut my hair because it starts look like a bush after three months of it getting cut. it's very distracting during class when i have to deal with that much hair. i also play with my hair too much and get distracted by my split ends. i could put my hair in a pony tail but i forget alot.
