Thats happened to my son. Half way through doing his hair, the number 2 came off and scalped him half way across his head. Poor kid.!!

When you do find a good one, it costs a fortune or you go back a 2nd time and that barber/ hair dresser has gone and you end up with a cut that looks like a first year apprentice has just practiced on you.

Can any one recommend a good Barber / hairdresser that was trained in the UK, on the gold coast and can cut my hair without looking like a mop the week after its been cut, long bits here a tuft there and one side lower than the other.

Come on Guys help me out, I know it’s a bit girlie lads, but I’m fed up with the wife looking at me after having my hair cut and giving me that look (“who the bloody hell as cut that” look)

Good day and here endith the sermon

Look for old really run down looking barbers. Thats what I do when in a new city. They tend to be the really old fashioned, good ones, with old codgers who know how to cut hair properly.

The one I found in Melbourne just off Elizabeth street was great, and he shaves the back of your neck with a cut throat razor and everything. It was just a tad unfortunate that he chose that moment to get really angry about bloody immigrants driving the house prices up. I had to sit very still through that tirade .

A crew-cut is just a #2 all over isn't it? I'm thinking of just getting that next time, its cheaper and faster, and none of this "is that short enough?" nonsense.

If ever you are up in Brisbane, just off Park Road (I'm sure it is Douglas St), there is a Barber that is from Brum. I few of the guys from work go there. I just go for the quick zip with the clippers for a crew cut nowadays, so get the OH to do that for me.

If we talking clippers and a simple trim the guy upstairs in Roma Street Station (next to the Queenslander Bar) is alright (saves some train fare from the CBD too), he may be a cockroach but he's a nice fella to talk to too.
