This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Anon, don't pretend you didn't hear, express sympathy. You don't have to know a person to know grief.

(And then you become a human to them, and they'll remember you need your haircut finished. Even if they're annoyed, they can't really say so if all you've done is express sympathy. They'll cut your hair just to be rid of you.)

Anon went to a hair salon to get his head shaved

anon just likes cute girls groping his scalp

Also it was specifically a salon not a barbershop, so he knew this experience was going to be at least $40

Try $80 or $90 these days, barber shops are the ones that start at $40 (unless you go to a great clips or something, at which point you really should just do it yourself)

Depends where you live. I'm in a rural area about 70 miles away from the city, and my barber charges $22 a cut, at a far better quality than Great Clips.

"work up courage to get a haircut" quite the specimen

Anxiety can be a bitch.

I'm an extrovert who has no problem going to a party by myself when I don't know anyone

haircuts still give me the howling fantods

[–] echodot@feddit.uk 5 points 1 year ago

I can see the dating profile now.

Level of social interaction I'm prepared for: have a haircut without displaying any human emotions or interacting with other members of the human race.

Honestly if it's the only place to get a haircut, then it'll be awkward at any time. I'd rather not be forced to walk around with a half done haircut either.
