The summer heat is here and I hate having long sweaty hair hanging down on my forehead. Thinking about going from long (bangs down to eyebrows, hair over my ears and long taper in the back) to flattop.
There is a barber school that does cheap haircuts near me but it is run by people who speak mostly Arabic or Farsi, not sure which. So I don't know if I can communicate to them what I want. Plus they are students and my last haircut had stray hairs sticking out weird places. I could tell by the way he cut my hair that he was not real familiar with longer hairstyles. Most of the haircuts I saw going on were rounded buzzcuts and "fade" type haircuts. So I know they can do tapering at the least. Now would be the time to get the flattop (high and tight) since we are out of choir season at church and it would give them q chance to get used to me with short hair before we go back to choir robes again in the fall. I know of another barber shop which costs more but they don't have mirrors and I like to watch the long/short transformation. There is a barber shop run by Russian Jews but their flattops are more like rounded crewcuts (although extremely short which I like) I can't remember if they have mirrors facing the chair or not. Would like to find a private, home shop with mirrors and someone here in Phoenix who does precise flattops I wanted to lose weight before I go to a short cut again but the diet is not working. I keep having poke new holes in my belt so my waist size is going down but not the actual weight. I am pleased though because I have been on long-acting insulin and my blood sugar is often normal now or slightly above, where it was up in the 3 to 5 100's range when it was out of control. Sorry for the long post. If anybody has a home shop in Phoenix with mirrors or willing to video my haircut please let me know. Transportation is an issue for me...I depend on my brother for car rides and can't ride the bus so would need transport for the home haircut. Wish I could get over to CA for a private session somewhere or a really good shop with mirrors.

BuzzLife Rules:
This board is designed to be a destination to discuss male haircuts, from buzzcuts, flattops, bald, and more!
By using this, you accept all liability for your posts and their contents. BuzzLife administration and Boardhost accept no liability whatsoever by posts, ideas, opinions, links to external sources, videos, to name a few among the vast amount of content that could be contained in said posts. Therefore, you post it, whatever it may be, you’re responsible for it. Enough said.
Photos, videos, and other content posted should involve men who appear to be of age. Any link/poster that sends images, videos, etc. of those who appear to be below acceptable age will be removed. This results in an instant ban for life
This is designed for male haircutting, and males should be the subject of the haircut. Females should not be the subject of the haircut in posts, photos, and discussions, however, females are free to join and discuss our common interests.
No sexual posts allowed. No political posts allowed.
In terms of common sense, do not post replies to such videos or photos saying things like “sexy handsome man without hair” or “better ####ing shave it next time” or any other suggestive or inappropriate comments. This only does many things. It makes the user remove the video due to being “creeped out” by said comments, look to see where the user found their video (and can see terms searched, such as headshaving, male haircut, and even links from this board). It only brings out a negative view of our community and makes us more noticeable, rather than keeping it quiet. Keeping it quiet is best, it allows us to continue sharing content without people starting to think “will I get creepy people send me stuff”. To sum it up, don’t be a creep on other people’s videos. Saying you look good such as “nice haircut” is acceptable; saying “you look sexy handsome with that new haircut :-*” is unacceptable. I cannot control what you post on other websites, but please keep your true comments to yourself, or as we often see, “This video has been removed by the user” will pop up. Please use proper judgment to keep the videos posted public for all to see and enjoy.
In addition, please try to do your best to provide reference to what content is being presented. The internet is wide, I understand that. But if you are going to post a YouTube link, write a quick thing next to the link (moptop shorn) or reference where you got an image from (i.e., post a link and the image) so we can see it easier if there is problem. Only goes to help us out more!
Be civil on the board. We’re all grown mature (hopefully) men. Let’s keep it mature and civil on here.
Be smart about what you post! If you use proper judgment, it will generally be fine. Just consider these rules before posting.
Any problems and questions, e-mail me at buzzlifeboard@gmail.com
I tried to make these rules fair and understanding. They are only here to make the best for the continuation of our community. Any comments or problems or suggestions, please message me or post here.
