I got a haircut today. I never realized until today how relaxing a haircut is. It may sound a little weird, but being in the warm seat and having someone cut my hair is just so serene. My barber doesnt talk that much so literally the whole time it feels like my head is getting a massage. It may not be as relaxing for everyone else but it sure is for me. If i could i would fall asleep during the haircut.

The only bad thing about my barber though is that I always have to be aware of the time. The parking around there is horrible and there’s always meter maids handing out tickets. It always gives me that rushed feeling, like “OMG what time is it?!” I can never truly feel completely relaxed at the barber just because of this. Besides the little bit of anxiety I feel towards getting a ticket, it still cant take away from the fact that being at the barber is sometimes the highlight of my day.

I pay 16 dollars for a haircut. But i feel like I’m ripping off the barber. For about an hour of my time I get a head massage, a chance to clear my head, the feeling of total relaxation, and I come out of the place with a confidence boost because my hair looks good! So for 16 dollars it is well worth it. The shop is in a little alleyway that is kind of suspicious but once you get in there you have these awesome Russian guys asking what’s up and hows life going. When you get in the hot seat, you got the buzzer going around your head while you watch whatever they put on the T.V. Today they had some movie with Chuck Norris in it but i had never seen it. It looked pretty badass though. Chuck Norris was just flinging people around like it was nothing. I just feel so good when I’m at the barbers. After the haircut I say bye to everyone and i head out the door. From that second on i start to get a little depressed cause i know i wont be in there for another month=(…
