>>>You and I both! :-) Nothing like seeing a shaggy-to-whitewalls cut at the barbershop.
Yeah, I guess some guys are getting their normal haircut extra short, hence the sudden exposed whitewall appearance, for fear of more stay-at-home quarantine orders by their state and local government, (...) They might not know when they can get back to the barbershops nor do the barbers know when they can re-open for their shaggy patrons.
>>>Yeah some guys were definitely going extra short ahead of the first shutdown and after the re-opeing as well. At Mills River Barbershop they quote one of the customers as saying "Yeah, we're going to go about as short as we can go. I don't know how long this is going to last." He was one of the last customers to get a haircut at the shop in late May. http://my40.tv/news/local/customers-rush-to-wnc-barbers-before-they-closed-shop-because-of-coronavirus
But I agree with JM, please include the photos as norma, but as he suggested, at the bottom of the posted pictures, list by order the websites of where the photos come from, even if, as you say, they are "pretty generic" to the reader.
>>>Ok will post article links with future posts if y'all want them.
I usually clipper shave my head down to a no guard, and its been a while since I last did it all because my clippers are back at home, and I have not seen my parents due to health concerns, not that I have tested positive for COVID-19, just wish to not take a risk of going there during a health pandemic only just for a pair of old Wahl hair clippers and a kiss from mom!! lol
I know my over-grown shaggy head will be bare pale white too as like many of the men shown in those haircut media pictures.
>>>Well have fun when the time comes but you really should go to a barbershop of the initial shearing.
Speaking of untanned whitewall men with fresh haircuts, I love this paragraph in that story you posted about Robert Daniel Martin, the rouge barber and owner of the The Stag Barbershop located in Snohomish, Washington linked here:
http://www.seattletimes.com/seattle-news/a-snohomish-barbershop-defies-orders-to-remain-closed-during-coronavirus-and-customers-line-up/
Kevin Nigh of Arlington walked out of the shop, his pale scalp visible through his buzzcut, his neck tan, and a smile on his face. "It is so, so much better,” he said. “I was in the military for 28 years and getting your hair cut gets ingrained in you. Grooming standards. And I feel perfectly safe.”
I bet that Kevin Nigh is the man shown seated in the barber chair in the photograph with the back of his skinned head reflected in the barbershop's mirror. Man, he got skinned high and tight and with a severe all-white bare shaved scalp. No wonder why this woman reporter from the Seattle Times took note of this "pale scalp" to include the observation in this barbershop article!!!
>>>Kevin Nigh's quote certainly fits the whitewalled guy in the picture but he also mentions that he was in the military for 28 years which means he'd have to be just shy of 50 yo. Kevin looks quite a bit younger than 45-50 in my estimation so I don't think it's him.
Keep up the good work of posting more barber/haircut photos and website links....and you need to tell us what cut you got and when you will get your next haircut!!
>>>As a matter of fact I got a high & tight last Sunday and I had no idea that barbershops would be forced to close down again only a day or two later. At first I was gonna go for a medium fade but then I told the barber to take it higher and tighter. Glad I did because who knows when the shops will open again....
Oh, by the way, in case you all wish to know, and see, that barber, Mr. Martin, was given this hand-delivered letter:
http://assets.documentcloud.org/documents/6896031/2020-05-20-Stag-Barber-Cease-and-Desist-Letter.pdf
No word if barber Robert Martin can make it up and seek exoneration by giving the Washington attorney general, Robert Ferguson, a nice short haircut?!!!
>>Well looks to me like barber Martin could use a good haircut himself if he is the ponytailed guy in the photo.

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.
