Default Even been robbed of your hair?

So yesterday the plane hit the 100hr mark. I only did three flights and was finished flying my 3pm. I decided that since I hadn't had a haircut in about 6weeks I was due. So I go to the mall here in Del Rio where I always go and sit down to a woman I hadn't noticed before. I specifically said, "I'd like the ears trimmed, the top left a little long and trimmed to match. I'm not in the military and don't want to look like it." So the first thing she does is take a 1 1/2 on the side of my head and goes *WOoOoOoOSH!!!!!!* across it. A pile of hair hits the floor like i've never seen. I'm like wth. She had my chair turned so that I couldn't see the mirror. I don't know why but I let her keep going thinking maybe I had more back there then I thought.... Needless to say there wasn't 1inch of my head I couldn't see skin through. I actually had to tell her to stop where she was and discontinue cutting my hair. I've never really had a bad haircut before but right now i'm wearing a hat because of it. Would rogain be a bad idea?

I still paid and tipped her. don't know why but I won't be going back... BOOOOOOOOOO!

I've had that happen before but not nearly as extreme. The good news is it will grow back.

I cut my own hair. Haven't been to a barber since July 2001. They never get it right...I couldn't deal anymore with sitting in the chair with slowly mounting frustration and disgust, only to face the insult of having to pay (and TIP!) at the end.
Since it doesn't cost me anything, I do it probably every 10 days to keep it where I want it at all times.

How much do you guy's tip? My barber charges 6 dollars, I give her seven. Should I give her more?

By the way, my hair is not too long buy I do comb it to the front. I tried cutting the frontal part of it, and I f&ck up! My barber is going to laugh at me, she not going to know what to do, but she better fix it, if she does I might give her eight. LOL I'm broke, I need a job. College is too expensive, by the way I'd like to announce that I"m irritated, because academic advicing f&cked up and now I can't register for classes until the fix their mistake, meanwhile everybody else registers, they are fircken morons.
