Women Barbers

    There's a barber near my parents that I've used occasionally, and the staff is exclusively female. The quality of the haircut varies, depending on who you end up with, although I've never got what you would call a bad haircut there. But the thing that bugged me when I was there recently is that there's nothing to read while you're waiting. All the magazines are OK, Hello and the like, not a single piece of reading material for blokes. WTF is that all about???

    last place I went to had a moody trainee girl who seemed to resent the fact that I wanted a dry cut.

    I gave her the benefit of the doubt and paid my €20, but I won't be going there again - it ain't worth it.

    Women barbers are fine, they can see where your eyes wander, but women opticians....:o

    I have had some bad luck with barbers in the last number of years. My hair is now reasonably long (kept short for about 10 yrs before this). Firstly i had a class barber who was really popular and kept busy, but for some strange reason everytime i went in there nobody would come in after me for ages, so we be bullsh!tting about football and music and he's be going and getting CD's for me to listen to a new song by someone up and coming. It used to take the guts of 45mins to get the hair cut due to all the stoppages. Then one day he just shut down the shop and fcuked off..
    And then the bad luck started. I had a succession of bad haircuts(from men and women), ending with a fcuking horrific job a few days before Christmas. So i decided to forget about letting these tools touch my hair again.
    So recently i decided to chance a new place in town for the first cut in about 11months and it was a woman doing it. Not only that it was an Eastern European woman. This seems to be a regular occurance but it was news to me at the time. I was seriously sh!tting it cause she didn't seem to be the best with the old lingo. But was pleasently surprised to find she did a smashing cut, did it reasonably quickly and didn't leave my hair looking like i used a Black & Decker on it. She was not fit however. Thats probably the sacrifice you have to make for a good haircut. The fit ones are nice to look at and might rub their tits against your head but cant cut for sh!t..

    if there is a woman working i'll politely opt to wait for the man to cut my hair so I can have a proper chat about football, cars, local criminals etc. Barber should always be stocked with FHM, Loaded , Top Gear , and Gadget type magazines, mine recently put in a few Playstations to keep us amused while waiting.

    A haircut needs to be accompanies by trivial but interesting conversation , something women are incapable of doing, as are most of the "i really want to be styling elton John" type of barbers.

    I also have a pet hate for women (of the more butch variety) getting haircuts in the barbers. .... outrageous.

    The best haircut I have ever received was off a Chinese bloke in a place just off Capel Street. He kept on talking about how I would great for the party I was going to, even though I never mentioned anything of the sort. As someone said above, a good haircut requires sacrifices. In this instance, it was decent knowledge of the English language (beyond understanding haircut instructions).

    i used to go to one place and when she went to cut the top of my head she would go up on her tip toes and position her crotch on my hand :D it also helped that she was HOT

    Eastern european girls seem to always do a good job from my experience. I had my hair cut by a beautiful estonian girl one time and she spent ages at it because she kept asking me about good places to go out.

    Maybe she wanted you to ask her out...?

    I live in town, so I always went to a Barbers on Dame St, just a few doors down from the *******. Good cut for 10 quid and they seemed like nice lads (even though they were some sort of religious/bible thumpers)...

    I'm in need of a cut now, and I walked past it the other day and it was gone. (I was away working in the states for 3 months, just back). Its now one of those salons for African women to get their braided hairstyles done.... I don't know where to go now.

    I went to Sam's Barbers just across from the Stag's Head before and there was a female barber in there. She scares me though. I think she's a bit mad to be honest :o

    Got a great haircut in a Russian barbers in New York over the summer. The barber's wife and daughter were working in there also... Both absolutely stunning. The wife cut my hair and I have to say she did an excellent job. I think I might go back there and get a cut, but it might work out a tad expensive ;)

    It was hilarious. The queue of lads sitting waiting to get their hair cut. All of them drooling looking at the mother and daughter. It was like people watching a tennis game. Their heads moving in the direction of the the mother and daughter movement :D

    I general, I've found the same. There was one who gave me the worst haircut I've ever had - she had a mullet though, so I should have seen it coming!

    The best barber I've ever had was a woman. I've driven the 40 miles from Wexford to Waterford just to get her again!

    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.
    No no no. GF's for that, men for cutting yer hair.

    There's a very well known barbers just off Camden street. Most days there's two Polish guys and an Irish girl.

    I usually wait at the back for the chairs to come free and if it looks like I'm about to get the woman, I'll fake an urgent call on the moby till one of the Polish guys has an empty chair.

    Why? Because I let her cut my hair a couple of times and she didn't do a great job compared to how neat and fastidious the Polish lads were.

    I had a woman barber and she was hot and she kept asking me out and I just kept saying, "feel free to keep your dumb bitch mouth shut and concentrate on the hair, baby"

    A little bump for this as its getting out of hand,when I was going for my Xmas hair cut I noticed a big increase in the Woman Barbers in Dublin.We need to put a stop to this ASAP.

    But than we need more gays! Manly barbers prevail at doing the real mans haircut such as the short back and sides but to do what the masses want (coloring, bleaching etc) they need either a gay or a woman.

    BTW: Short back and sides for the win!

    I don't know what all the surprise about female barbers is - where I'm from its all female. Any guy doing it i always assumed was gay? I did got my haircut in Dublin recently by a fella, possibly only the 3rd or 4th time that happened and I wasn't overally impressed.

    In the place I usually go back home, there is one absolute stunner with lovely breasts - the other one is really fat. So you have to try time it right so ya get the hot one. When the fat girl asks who's next we all look at each other as if to say "i think your next" but when the hot one asks it we can't get out of our seat fast enough. They both do good job on my hair, but like someone said its full of Hello magazines. Makes no sense but there ya go.

    the barbers i go to, city centre one is pretty good alright.

    irish guy and an irish girl work there. Used to always have the guy do it and the haircuts were always top notch. when the girl got taken on i was a bit apprehensive, but shes really good. bit of a cutie too which is a great bonus. they also use this minty shampoo stuff which is like the best head massage ever, especially if ur a bit ragged around the edges.

    highly recommended lads
