of what cranks men are becoming about
their haircuts you'd be ready to expect
anything.
1.-The barber-no matter how much Of
crackerjack he may be known to be-no
longer has anything to say about what
kind of haircut the patrons of the shop
give is not only not wanted. but 1t Is re-
sented So that. nowadays, the barber
rarely ventures even to try to slip in
suggestion.
oh. that's what you think about 1t,
EN-? ia the way the customer of today
ordinarily accepts a suggestion from the
barber as to the sort of haircut that
would be the most becoming to him. 'uh-
huh. Well, your intentions are all right.
but this is the way l want it cut and he
plunges in and tells the barber. down to
the minuest details, precisely how he
wants his hemp sheared. Other customers
are still more grumpy over the BARRIERS
suggestions.
~ want 1t cut my way. and NOT yours
is common phrase with them after the
barber has mildly suggested what he
thinks would suit them best. or I'm wear
ing this hair and want to wear it the way
/ want 1t worm or something like that.
In at least one-half of the cases the
customers with rigid ideas about the way
they want their hair cut are entirely
wrong about the business. and they choose
hair-cutting styles that don't suit them at
all. The intelligent barber knows-as why
shouldn't he?-the style of haircut best
adapted to men with certain kinds of
heads and faces. and the time was, not SO
very long ago, either, when barber shop
customers were willing to believe that the
barber had a better understanding of what
would suit them in the way of a haircut
than they themselves possessed.
But not In these days. Every customer
thinks he's got the exact dope about what
he needs In the haircut line, and you'd
imagine TO hear some of 'em snort around
that BARRIERS took a fiendish delight in
stalking their customers to unbecoming
and generally idiotic haircuts. AS mat
ter of fact. a barber takes pleasure in
sending man out of the shop looking
just as nifty as he can be made to look
with the help of the shears. and, as l say.
the barber who's worth his salt knows,
almost at glance. just the kind of
haircut that is becoming to every man
who nudgeS t4ward- his chair. 1t Is tina
