People always when i say the price, but I only have it cut every 4-5mths so it isnt that dear when you equal it out. It's not the cheapest salon but I do like the massage chairs
£84 So you spent £83 on cosmetics

I'm glad someone else washes it once a week... Like me!

I have had three people yesterday comment on how lovely my hair is lately. Asking when I had it done. When I explained it was done five weeks ago, and it was due a wash they were shocked.

Since I stopped washing and foofing it up, it's never looked better.

Does the price guarantee you come away with both ears intact?

At first it's a bit yuk, I suppose, but it rarely gets greasy now, I just wash it after a week as I feel I need to.

When I was getting it bleached I was washing it every other day, and having to use leave in conditioners, hot oils etc, just to stop it looking like straw.
It's so easy to look after now, but it's taken almost two years to grow the blonde out.

£10. But I get an appointment everytime, so I just stroll in and sit down. Used to be a queing system before and if you times it wrong, you would have to sit there for 2 or 3 hours.

Been going to the same guy, religiously, every 3 weeks, for 15 years now. I never need to tell him what I want, as it is the same cut, (very) short back and sides.

I'm quite happy. I have been known to book holidays and social events in and around my haircuts, but not all the time!

I used to pay about £0 when I was 18 as I lived in a flat above a barbers in the town centre. Agreement was not to play music loud during his hours and I'd have as many free haircuts as I wanted.

I then noticed my hair wasn't gonna last forever so started using what time I had left to best effect and went all trendy with a mohawk type doo with streaks and the gangsta lines down the sides at the poshest salon in town . £35 a pop

Hair got too thin eventually so gave up, bought some Wahl clippers and have shaved it to about 1mm since.

When I was a teen, my fit sister's mate (who I had a bit of a crush on) used to cut my head. She had massive shapely **** - hanging freely sans bra (<<< and not dissimilar to the ones in my avatar!) - that used to be in constant contact with my back, back of neck or c.2" from my face! You can imagine what effect that had on raging teen hormones!

F**k it, ^^^ that really is a large withdrawal taken from my w**kbank - might have to make good on it and go and knoc........................

I wash mine every day, I couldn't go without. However, I do find taking a break every now and then from conditioner is a good thing.

Mind, when I was ill a while back, being off work and feeling sh1tty, I went a short time without washing my hair at all. By the time I did (less than a week) it was a great relief and felt so cleansing, but I think it did my hair a world of good not being messed with for a bit.

When at work, the place is grubby and I end up coming home feeling dirty even if I'm visably not, there is no way I couldn't shower and wash my hair.

You guys must have really bad hair and/or be having it cut by fat munters or some greasy old bloke.

I pay £20 + £5 tip and have it cut every 10-12 weeks

Nothing, because Mrs Leslie does mine as part of the contract

She does it as well as anybody would too.

Is there not something deeply wrong with thinking your sister is fit?

Sh1te! You're right. Of course, it should've read "...sister's fit mate...".

Ah well, nothing like keeping it in the family.

How have you managed to get to almost 11,000 posts without me noticing your existence until this week?

Yeah, I remember that!! You were much quicker than me, though - I've just kept going like the tortoise vs the hare.

To be fair, you had flood control to deal with. Have you worked out how to break it yet

OK - I'm confused now. Is your sister fit, or does she look like Miss Piggy?
