Pros of cutting your own hair

-Will end up saving a lot of money. A $50 haircut a month adds up to like $600 dollars a year. You can buy all the tools you need for less than $100.
-You can cut anytime you want, and do whatever you want with your hair.
-Barbers are bluepilled. They don't listen. They don't understand skull shapes, they often cut too short and high on the sides, and reveal your peanut skull in the process.
-If you mog the barber, he will probably try to sabotage your haircut. Norwooding barbers are the worst at this.
-Most styles are easy to cut by yourself with a little practice, beside fades. But fades are a looksmin on most men.

Just lol at giving away your shekels to a barber, who probably doesn't even care about YOUR appearance. Only you should be touching your hair.


Chad cuts his own hair so why can't I? :feelsgood:

So, I started teaching myself and over the last three years, I’ve been cutting my own hair. I screwed up a lot for the first year. I had bald spots, I shaved too close in some areas, my friends were laughing at me. But then I got the hang of it. I go to a hairdresser once every six months to a year to get them to shape it the way I want, and then I will just follow up on my own. My washroom is always messy as hell because I cut my hair probably once a week to keep it from getting too crazy.”

No, you just need to find a good barber. Mine can give me the exact same haircut of my favorite actor and the product he gave me works when I use it at home. In fact, I style my hair better than he does. However, because of the pandemic, I have been getting haircuts less often because it's pretty much useless to look good all the time when I always need to have a mask covering my face.

You just need to stop going to malls to get a haircut and find a place that has a lot of real 5 star google reviews, and you may need to try out different places to find out which one in your area is the best.

Also, you used the wrong flair, that is not a black pill, it's just something you made up. Stop trying to destroy the meaning of the black pill by making stuff up.

Definitely, my barber would always cut my hair too short no matter what I told him.

And he was slyly price gouging me by raising the price by $5 each time the past few times I went .

Yes but it's a tradeoff, you sacrifice your looks by having a weird hairstyle, because you didn't want to spend around 50$ per month to look good all the time. Women notice the difference, I know because in the past, I never really cared about my hairstyle, but then, when I started styling my hair in 2020 and started getting a good hairstyle, then women were noticing me a lot more, so it makes a huge difference.

Man I hate barbers. Most of the barbers are cheap here though. I can get a haircut for 10€, not 50.
Most of the time they are turks though. Turks here are very good at styling fade, but can't really do anything else.

I am also kind of high inhib, so I don't want to show the barber a haircut of a celebrity. I just tell him vaguely what I want and in the end I am frustrated

As with most things, you need to spend some money if you want a high-end result from a professional that knows his shit.
Otherwise yeah, once you get the hang of it, cutting your own hair saves a lot of money and ensures you get your hair exactly how you want it every time, although it can be really hard to get a certain hairstyle by cutting it yourself.

I personally have long hair and only go get it trimmed + fix my nape and sideburns every few months. The entire thing takes 5 minutes and I only pay the barber a few euros, he used to have really long hair too so he knows how to do a maintenance cut for long hair.

He is an old baldcel and i feel like he lives through his clients cutting the hair the best he can, knowing it doesn't last for ever

I dont cut my hair anymore since I grew it out, but I always wear a headband rather than wasting money going to a barber and lining up my hairline. I've gotten absolutely fucked so many times by barbers in the past when I had short hair and they would give me the worst fade haircuts pushing my hairline back and making me look like a thumb

in the EXTREME version of that hairstyle. I agree, it lughs laughable on most guys. Do need to keep some hair on the sides, imo, short, but still some. And imo, it's better to do fade out on top, than that giga heavy contrast of bald side and than quit long hairlength on top.

I think doing the sides, a bit like in this video. To make it less extreme. And than on top longer. Is a good practical way to do this hairstyle more fit for daily life. Aka, fade out.




*** On TV it looks pretty good,



But imo a bit to extreme for ideal, still. But the concept of shorter hair on sides. and longer hair on top. is good idea. ESPECIALLY when your upper head it a bit peanut-ish.
you wanna aim to get a more box-ish shape. And with shorter sides that fade out well, and than longer hair on top comb over. its hsould work good. imo




****
I guestimate my head shape(s), would make this hairstyle suit decently well.
I wanna try it for sure once. to see for sure if it good or sucks.
I can check it, in 2 weeks time orso.

I wanna aim, something like this in like 2 weeks:
I think that moggs
Aim


LOL @ faceswap With Cilian Murphy, to check what would happen with muh hair.
Turns me into solid Chadlite, I think. Damn, That I'm missing those Chad mm features :rage::rage::rage::rage:

Damn, Why did that Barber cut my hair so short, that I can't cover more of muh forehead?? WHY, barber, why?? Looks so much better when I have more covered forehead. 😡😡 I showed hom a pic, which has like3x the hair length I have, wtf :ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO:

that makes sense and looks good.

but of course, the better looking you are, the more you can experiment with unusual and striking styles, which can boost appeal by making you stand out. When average guys do unusual/striking styles it mostly reduces their appeal and looks cringe

yeah.
as an average guy, with flaws. You have usually a very limited amount and window of hairstyles that look good.
While a Chad, can chose most hairstyles
 
same bruh, high inhib really is a curse
Yeah. At the end of the session. my barber asks me if I'm satisfied. My hair is already gone, so I just say "Yes", even though I am not really satisfied.

The cheaper the barber, the worse the haircut is going to be. I know this from personal experience. Some barbershops have higher standards than others but they charge a higher price but it's worth it in the end.
 
besides all that it's also a great conversation starter if you ask a girl to polish the cut for you they love that shit for some reason.

selfgrooming :feelshah:
