Women Barbers

Dub13 · 30-10-2007 06:45PM #1

What to you lot make of these strange creatures...?I used to like going into a barbers and be greeted by a woman,it was something different and maybe a bit of a novelty.After all what better way to brighten up your day than to have a strange pair of knockers bouncing around (and hopefully rubbing off) the back of your head,when I was younger I kind of taught of it as a poor mans lap dance and with contact.All for maybe 5 pounds.

As I got older and I am still in my 20s I have changed my mind about women barbers,I got thinking about it one day and I have never got a good hair cut from one of them in fact most of them have been crap.I always put it down to the fact that maybe they are just learning,but every one of them I have come across have been the same.They just don't give you the same cut,I get a nice clean cut raw at the back and cut nice and tight on top.Simple you would think,even for someone just learning.

The conversation with them was also how should I say it 'awkward'.Maybe I am old school but I like my Barber shop full with sports memorabilia and magazines,and the conversation to be normal everyday guy chat.I have now come to the conclusion that woman have no place in our Barber shops,they are getting in everywhere lads we need somewhere to chill and shoot the breeze.

So from today on wards I am boycotting any Barber shop who have a woman barber.Come and join the movement lads we have to make a stand somewhere and I think the front line should be our beloved Barber Shops.

I haven't had my hair cut by a woman in a barber's shop for YEARS! Where are all these women you've encountered?

I agree they are useless at cutting hair
but even worse than the irish female barbers has to be my personal number one fear a polish female barber.

I have recurring nightmares about getting a hair cut from them

Gotta love the boobs at the back of the head, best ever pillow

darkskol · 30-10-2007 06:49PM

I guess you used to get it cut in Lord Snootys.

One Cold Hand · 30-10-2007 06:50PM

Barbers are like Chefs, all the best one are men.

I don't want to name any shops as it would not be fair but they are out there.

I have had one female barber - nice woman but took ages to cut hair as she was chatting (and I wasn't getting a lot done

)

Call Me Jimmy · 30-10-2007 06:52PM

An eyeful of bazoongas when they're doing your fringe ain't bad tho. Really, where am I supposed to look?

Thats the thing when I go for a hair cut I want a decent,fast cut and maybe a bit of a quick chat about the football or rugby.

MooseJam · 30-10-2007 07:04PM

a woman does my hair and does a grand job too

Smellyirishman · 30-10-2007 07:11PM

Cut your own hair, save a fortune.

Got my hair cut for the first time in years a month ago and they tried to charge me 12 euro for 5 minutes work, GFY, boobs in my face or not.

Wertz · 30-10-2007 07:13PM

Jaysus there's one who works in my old regular barbers and she's a cracker, has a great pair and even manages to talk about more than the usual girlie sh*te....poor girl can't do tight cuts though.
I moved from using barbers to just skinning my own every few weeks, a fair while back so no longer have to worry about this issue....it is something that used play on my mind back then though: "So Wertz, decision time, decent haircut or titty massage?"
Don't need to tell you what I normally opted for...

I started cutting Dad's hair because his barber (male) was making a dogs dinner of it. He came out one day looking like his head caught mange.
I have no aptitude for this kind of thing but the results are much better.
Maybe people become barbers because they suck at cutting hair.

Exactly, and when They are washing my hair, oh yes.

Krieg · 30-10-2007 07:44PM

Now that you mention it...

I never noticed before, but your damn right. Women never did a good job of my hair!

MrsDub13 insists that I use a Barber she says I look like a 'convict' when I cut it myself.To tell you the truth she is right.

tampopo · 30-10-2007 07:47PM

Oh no, generally speaking I've found I had a good experience. One time in a basement barber's in the city centre, at the end she asked would I like gel, and ran her hands over my head. omg, it was orgasmic! Then the cheap place on the quays, a gorgeous Asian girl did a good job last year.

I only had one bad experience, an older woman, with a smell of onion sandwiches off her breath

LOL....that sounds illegal.

tampopo · 30-10-2007 07:59PM

lol, ah no she was good. She was from up near the Korean/Russian border, Daqing.

The Irish girl was cute too.

One time living in San Francisco, a russian scientist, down on her luck, or just recently immigrated, cut me hair. Not a bad job.

My regular barber is East European, with the worlds best ass.

She give's me great head

trim's my brow's and throws in a massage (scalp yiz durty ba$tards) and all for €12:50 but I give her a twenty and leave her with the change. She's worth every penny, and for the plug. She's the red head one in Tesco's Clare Hall S.C.

Rob_l · 30-10-2007 10:14PM

my old barber died,:mad: cut your hair and never said a word unless to ask what cut and then next for his money.

Those were great days

Blitzkrieger · 30-10-2007 11:42PM

I had to change to a male barber cos I was in constant danger of poking someone's eye out. Used to go to the local (unisex) hairdressers years ago where they used to give the job of cutting the mens hair to the trainee lowest in the pecking order. They were all **** - you'd only get a half-decent cut about 1 in 4 times.

I changed to a barber's in town cheifly because they were open late on Thursdays so it was handy to drop in on the way home from work but it was run by two women. Even though they weren't particularly good looking, I'd always end up with a tent in my pants from them washing and cutting my hair. It never happened in the old place cos the women there were horrors. I had to change again - there was just something sleazy about going in for a hair cut knowing what was going to happen....

Yeah, I agree she's top notch.

justsomebloke · 31-10-2007 12:07AM

There is a Romanian woman in Northwood gym in santry who I get mine cut by and I have to say she gives the best haircut I have had since growing my hair again (ye after 10 years of shaving my own head I finally started growing it again a few months back). Now I have only been to 4 barbers and 1 hair dressers in that time but she has been by far the best

31-10-2007 12:08AM

I used to have the same theory, just about women pouring pints of Guinness, but it was disproven recently.

I'm the opposite. Can't remember the last time a bloke cut my hair. I usually go to Grafton Barbers or the Mespil. They tend to want to do too much to my hair. They find it strange that I leave my hair down. A couple of weeks ago one of them asked why I don't shave my locks in some crazy triangular style.

I used to always go local but there's only one left and one of the lads there learnt to cut hair in Mountjoy. It's the Mespil or Grafton for convenience.

btw, what's that place like next door to paddy powers on Amien street? The guy who runs it seems to just go for the sexiest women in town.

Xavi6 · 31-10-2007 12:38AM

My old barber was the some woman. Her son was going out with Chritsty Dignam's daughter. She asked me if I'd ever heard of him. I stupidly replied "yes" and from then on all I got were stories about them junkies. Needless to say I promptly never went there again.

I will be checking these out as well but no woman is getting near my hair again.
