When I finished work, I didn't want to have to go into town just for a haircut, as mine needs doing every 4-5 weeks. Other than that it is no trouble. I went in the village. First hairdresser: ok for the first few times, then she thought I was a captive customer and didn't bother. 2nd hairdresser: could only seem to cut it short, whatever I said. After that I was in the wilderness for a few years, and went to various other salons. Then another salon opened in our village, posher and more expensive. But wow, you get what you pay for. My hair is straight and shiny, so I don't have it washed, just sprayed with water. All the girls, and the male boss, are good cutters, so I just book online as soon as the shape begins to go and have whoever is available. £37, but the top man is more. I didn't ever see the first 2 hairdressers in the village, and I'm sure they wouldn't have known me even if I did. If you are over 60, they just don't see you as important. Glad to say this new place sees all their clients as individuals.
