Fantasy to you. Real life for me. :-)
He was not my buddy and nothing out of the ordinary happened once the cape came off. He got out of the chair, took a good look in the big barbershop mirror, paid for his haircut and left.
I have no idea if this was his first visit to this particular shop. Only that it had definitely been a while since his last haircut. The H&T buzzcut with bumper didn't seem a big deal to him - more like his regular pre-Covid-19 haircut. He didn't ask to go shorter - that would've meant a clipper shaved head. His top was buzzed down to stubble except for the bumper and the sides were razor shaved.
No, nobody said anything. There wasn't a lot of talking going on in the shop - except guys telling the barbers how they wanted their hair cut and some light banter between barbers and cistomers.
Ha ha, never done that.
Never really thought about that. I'm a pretty solitary animal and actually enjoy barbershop visits on my own.
Yes, I have given a H&T to a guy. A few weeks into this Covid madness several months ago, guys started posting about needing a haircut on a message board I frequent. So I connected with this guy and gave him a H&T. I'm not a pro barber mind you but he was pretty pleased with how it turned out and paid me 25 bucks.
Well, you don't have to wait really. In many states barbershops are operating under certain restrictions or are about to open again. In CA barbershops are now allowed to operate indoors again (as of a few days ago) albeit only at 25% capacity (which the barbershop I went to yesterday did not adhere to!)
Tommy was the renegade barber where I got my August 25 high and tight. This most recent H&T was at the shop I went to before I found Tommy's place for my 'emergency' H&T. So you could say I've been alternating as of late. Tommy and I made just made small talk after I got out of the chair. I complimented him on his shop and he told me to call again if I needed another haircut.
Well, once the barber grabs the hand mirror to let you inspect the haircut and you give it thumbs up - that's pretty much the end of chair time, isn't it? All that's left is to remove the cape and off you go.
The 'hand test' is not what you're thinking. LOL I happen to be left-handed but I use my right to perform the 'hand test', i.e. running the hand up and down the freshly shaved H&T back to feel the closeness of the stubble. Feeling the H&T is half the fun of getting a H&T.
You are welcome.

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.
