How many haircuts have you had in one day? Salon or barber shop visits, not self inflicted.
I’ve had 3. I started out with shop I had been to a few times, usually 2 or 3 barbers there. I didn’t have a go to there. I took the first available, one who hadn’t cut my hair before. I didn’t have long hair but it was over my ears, at my collar and my bangs were long enough that I was just pushing them back with gel. I asked for tapered sides and back, and slicked back, keep some length on top. I was hoping to get something like Andy Garcia in the Oceans movies. I ended up with a mullet. When they were at peak joke stage. I saw the back, sighed and paid him. Got home and couldn’t live with it.
Shop 2. Never been there, but wanted to try it out. 2 chairs no waiting. On a Saturday morning now I know that’s a red flag. Short back and sides, tapered , slicked back on top is what I asked for. Sides and back cut to a #4, thinned out the top with thinning shears, and blocked the back. Got to the car and noticed my bangs were an uneven mess from the thinning shears. The only way to slick it back is with a lot of product.
Shop 3. One chair, long wait. Ok.
My turn came and the barber noticed the fresh cut. Had some questions. I said I didn’t like the blocked neck, I wanted a taper, slicked back etc. At this point he pointed out all the mistakes, combed my bangs forward, some went below my eyebrows some were about an inch long, same with the rest of the top. Since the back was blocked so high up he suggested a skin fade and a crew cut about finger length with enough to comb over up front. Done.
Didn’t want to go that short in the dead of winter but I was happy with the final result.

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.
