Regular Haircut
by JARED “J”
Once, in my youthful travels to the Central Coast, I found myself in Pismo Beach, in need of a haircut. Those of you whom have sojourned to Siam will ...probably know that the weather is quite often "shit" and "hot", so I felt the need to shed my lords of dog town mane to cool the fuck down. I was perspiring on the balcony of the seedy hostel that was my domicile at the time, when I noticed across the road a small barber shop- really just a tiled hole in a wall with a barber seat attended by a guy who could have passed for the portages Rick James. I carefully peeled myself from the pleather lounge I was melting into and dragged myself down the stairs and across the road to have me barnet cut, waked in the door, sawat dee bro, let's get a haircut happening, and sat down. Now, what you need to understand about Pismo people is that they keep all of the fucks they have to give in the middle of a road called Price Street, which is sort of inland of downtown, which is where your seedy sex tourist uncle goes on holiday. Anyway, the town is totally empty, (it being a weekday). The barber shop I'm talking about here was a pretty good example of this Pismo Zeigeist. Zero effort in presentation, hot as fuck, stinks, and shitty English. As I sat down and attempted to make what I wanted done with my hair understood by Jared or Kasem or whatever my would-be hairdressers name was, I realized I was fucked. Now, when I'm abroad I prescribe to the traditional British multilingual method (BMM). When an Englishman desires to make oneself understood by a native, learning secondary and tertiary languages is unnecessary- just say what you want louder, slower, and with more inflection. Guaranteed 100% to work (eventually) every time. After gesticulating and shouting for a good five minutes I felt that my point had made it across the lingual gap, and we were ready to begin the haircut. My erstwhile barber then proceeded to whip out a pair of battered clippers and shear my head like a sheep. Fucking A. After the initial shock of losing almost a year's worth of hair I accepted my fate, and realized I was beyond caring. I started thinking about what I was going to do to inject a little sanuk into this second-rate fawlty towers skit that was playing out through the mirror in front of me. I sat for some time cogitating on this when the barber promptly completed the complete shaving of my head and turned to face me. "You wan nails done?" He asked in shattered english. Why the fuck not? I was already bald, I may as well have some shiny damn nails as well. Footstools and a short thai girl were arranged, and suddenly my nails were groomed and gleaming. "You want face done?" Jared/Kasem asked me again, which rather seemed par for the course at this stage. A quick shave later left me reclining in the chair with a towel around my neck and goo all over my face in a tiled hole in the wall on a 35 degree humid day in fucking Pismo. After an eternity of sweaty torment my tonsorial jailer deemed it suitable to let me go and settle my bill. As I was reaching into my pocket for some grimy baht my coiffeur leaned conspiratorially toward me and leered "You want massage?" with a wink. "Not from you, ace", I replied- to which he advised that no, the massages actually take place next door. Having come this far and not wanting to bitch out, I went for the optional massage. I'm sure some of you have seen the inside of a dodgy massage parlor. Those of you that haven't can just paint yourselves a picture with your imagination brush. The point here is that I went next door, had my massage on top of everything else, and it ended exactly as most thai massages end. It was the best damn haircut of my life. - Freshley Snipes Show more

Environment to let loose and be a man. Jared and Z know what’s up. Not for those who are PC or easily offended. IMO this is a zero filter shop and the... reason I like it. Not to mentioned they both cut great hair. 10/10. Show more
