I don't think that I need to tell many of you guys, but right now is a great time to watch for fresh haircuts on guys all over this country. With many states in their first or second phase of re-opened businesses, including barbershop and salons, men and boys all over the country, are flocking to their nears shop for haircuts.
I saw a news story of a college age man at a bar who just got a fresh high and tight and was happy to be at his bar. When asked why he was so happy, he said, "Finally, I was able to get a haircut and now enjoy a beer at this bar that now just opened last night."
I learned of this moment myself earlier today when I was walking home from work, which is just ten city blocks away. I was going past this gas station when I noticed this man get out of a beat-up truck that had the name of a Durham business on the truck door. He had a fresh high-and-tight. If he did not have such an extreme white-wall appearance from an obvious recent fresh haircut, he would probably not have stood out so much and caught my attention. But then I always keep my eyes wide-op for people-watching.
So, I decided to cross the busy street to get a closer look. He had a high-and-tight but way up high it was and totally shaved smooth on the sides and back, and that part was so white, it was if he took off a head-band from being in the sun for a full week. It was so hot. Nice white-wall look.
I said "Cool haircut", and he looked around at me as he was putting gas in the truck and responded "Yeah, finally after this damn Corona virus".
I asked him what he meant (though I knew very well). He said he had not gotten a haircut since (he guessed) February all because of the stay-at-home orders and area barber shops got closed. I said "Well, that is some short haircut" and he said that he asked for it to be extra short in case (as he feared) the local health folks will issue another business/barbershop closure should COVID-19 increase in the area. Then his two sons came out of the truck when he called out his sons (about ages 8-12).
Both boys got what I would call a zero-bald crewcut. Their heads were peeled bald and also had that white-wall appearance. The dad said "Show this man your new haircuts." They did not seem to like being clipped to zero no guard and one said his head felt "itchy." The dad, who was wearing a NC State t-shirt and cut-off blue jeans, said "Yeah, I just had him take the boys down bald so its "good and short and make it last through another health closure".
Then the dad added "So, even if COVID-19 doesn't kick back up, at least they got a nice short haircut, and it is now summertime anyway". The one of the boys seemed to really hate being freshly sheared to the skin. Perhaps mostly because of being asked by his dad to show off the buzzcut to me. The man said that they just got haircuts about "twenty minutes ago" down the street. I think I know which barbershop they were just at. I might just go down that way to see other fresh haircuts leaving the shop, a place which is known to do super short haircuts. Both boys got summer bald buzzcuts.
The dad had a military-like shaved high-and-tight with a pinchable top to comb over. With a close-up view, he was razor shaved on the sides and back and that white scalp look practically made me hide my erection.
I told him that was one excellent haircut. He said, while running his hand over the back of his head, "Yeah, this is the shortest haircut that I've gotten since I was in the Navy, when we used to get high regs and high-and-tights all the time. This is short. I like it".
So, be sure to keep an eye for fresh haircuts. Men and boys are getting that long quarantine shaggy hair peeled off, some extra short like this dad and his buzzed summer-ready sons. This is the time to watch or "stalk" local shops from afar or when inside---providing that they allow for more than a couple of men in the shop at a time. What is great, now we get the extra bonus of that longer hair to expose a white-walled necks, ears, and faces, like this happy dad and sons (well, at least the dad was happy to finally get long awaited haircuts today!!).
Has any one here seen any memorable haircuts on guys who finally got their haircut, or you got an extra short cut now that your area has barbers back open??
In case you wonder, this man's fresh white-wall high-and-tight looks like this top photo on this website, and the exposed bare untanned sides and back were even extra hot because he was severely freshly razor shaved high.

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.

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.
