Oh my, I keep asking myself why I didn't say anything...
Usually I tell the lady what H wants for a haircut. #2 on the sides, longer top, fade the beard in. It's not that H can't, but he's so used to going in to a military barber and they know high and tight, nothing needs to be said. He just doesn't know how to speak up for himself. But I feel like "that wife".
Anyway, so we go into Great Clips... and it's the same lady as last time, so I think we're ok. I hear "We doing 0 around and 1 on top?" I'm like NOOOOOOOOOOO and he said sure and snip there it goes. We/I like it long on top because he does have a receding hairline and it just looks better. Oh there goes that! Then H is like we might as well shave the beard - NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO I kind of got used to it!
Well, he kept the beard, so now he is a bald man with a huge big Amish beard. I'm so glad it grows fast... it's getting really hard to keep telling him it looks "good"....
"well it looks, ok"...

Re: H's Haircut - too funny not to share
Haha, this has happened to my H before too. I also hate being "that wife" with him at the barber, but if it is somewhere new, I will go there! He once had to bring in a picture of a high and tight fade to a lady he had seen a few times. Though, I don't know why he kept going back to her if she couldn't get it right! He has just now finally found somewhere he really likes, but it has taken 3 years of living in this area to do so.
I hope his hair grows out quickly or you can convince him to wear that darn hat!
That's pretty funny! I feel like we need a picture!!
DH always goes by himself to get his hair cut, and it always looks good. He does go once in a while and has his mom cut his hair. When she does it, it looks blocky and I'm not a fan of it. I do like that I get to tease him ruthlessly about having his mommy cut his hair, though.
I think that we need a pic of this.
DH has an amazing barber who he has been going to for years now. The only thing that I don't like that he does is shaves DH's mustache a little to low but he always put extra powder on DH because he knows that I like it.
