Interestingly, :cwm25: ... midway down the link page, there's an ad for 'Amami Styling Lotion'.

:yeahthat:'s [roughly] about the colour of bottle it came in - as far as I recall - since my mother used it and, when I was a teenager, I'd nick some of the stuff from her dressing table and apply it to my own hair, in an attempt to make it wavy!

Hmph ... didn't do me much good! :NoNo:

You don't hear A short back and sides now days or even a Crew cut , those was the haircuts of my days

Because short, back and sides, is referred to as a *Number 1 these days, Steve ... :anerikke: ... *same thing, really!

I just cut my own hair now , well i get Emma to cut it, number 3 if i wear my glasses, and if i cannot find them its pot luck,
Emma still would like to get some colour on my head but i like the colour already , its called gray skies with a hint of black,
What colours do you lot use :biggrin:

[Terpe]

My hair cut is a number 1 all over :bigcry:
P100
sometimes I have a shave and massage as well at P100 extra
Sometimes they're too scared to make a really close shave usually. But hey ho the experience is just too much to miss

[Steve.r]

Wow!!! ....really Peter, that really is a foreigner price. We pay P50 - 60 by a lovely man called Vanessa :icon_lol:

Nowt wrong wi' *grey hair, Steve :nono-1-1: ... what's left of mine has been that *colour since my late forties, yet - while my small goatee beard's grey also - my moustache, for some reason, still stays the same brown(ish) shade it ^ was when I first grew it, now more than 40 years' ago!

[Longweekend]

My manager cuts mine, but do remember when you went to the local barbers as a kid and when the man in front of you had finished the barber asked him if he 'wanted anything for the weekend' what was all that about?....:biggrin:

I went gray very early infact i am the only one in the family that went gray so quick, i got use to it too,
It amazes me when you do get the older gent going a stupid colour but then again i have never seen the older man in a blue rinse yet, :yikes:

Those was the days , when as a lad sitting on the plank across the seat and the little window would slide open and money was exchanged for a pack , like you i did not know what they where then,

[Longweekend]

Only thing I bought from the barbers was a 'lucy', a fag and a match...:biggrin:

P35 for a haircut, massage and a good hiding? That's what I call value. What's their address? :Erm:

SM mall price :wink:

When we lived in Davao I could get a hair cut and massage for P40
I'd rather pay the extra.

Life is what you make of it :xxgrinning--00xx3:

The cheapest is for me to cut it myself. Number one all over.
I enjoy the going out and enjoying the rituals of a good old fashioned barber's shop. :wink:
