The fact "The person having a haircut should find an old sheet to wear like a cape." is illustrated with the story:1. When you cut someones hair, try not to get the clipped hair down their backs.2. Hair clippings are extremly itchy.3. If you wrap a towel or old sheet aroung their neck it will prevent the cut hair from getting all over.4. A large garbage bag with a corner clipped out and pulled over their head works well.5. After your done, pat some baby powder around their necks and this will release any hair clippings from their skin and it smells nice too.
