    awesome! but if you do, you should definitely get it done naturally, to chemically dread your hair is REALLY bad for it. they make dread kits, its pretty easy to do, just get a good friend of yours to come over and help you out, its pretty easy.

    Why do you like Barbers instead of salons?

    I am a female Barber.. would that make you want to still come to me for your cut/shave? what do you like about the Barber Shop?Why do you like Barbers instead of salons?
    Going to a salon makes some guys feel like people are going to think they're gay for going there. And if you're lucky, you can find a barber shop that uses real, hot lather on your neck and side burns and they use a real straight-edge razor and scissors instead of using clippers for everything. Barber shops are usually more personable also, you can get to know your barber, swap old war stories or crap like that. I wouldn't mind going to a female barber if it was close by. I've been going to Supercuts lately because it's just more convenient but if I could find a barber shop that was closer that does the stuff I mentioned above I'd go there instead, male or female.Why do you like Barbers instead of salons?
    To be absolutely honest, I have no vanity and I strongly believe the only difference between a good hair cut and a bad one is about 7 days. I go to a $7 barber shop and tip the barber $2 or $3 depending on how good the cut really was and how generous I am feeling. I would use scissors on my own hair before I paid someone $20 for a hair cut.





    Before I get two or three hundred thumbs down, I didn't say a word about anyone else. I don't care what others do. I spent 22 years in the military and since I retired I get my hair cut when I am damn good and ready, not when some arbitrary length is reached. I probably spend money on things other consider foolish but they made their money and I made mine. They can spend as they see fit and I will do likewise.





    That's probably far more information than you wanted but I am nothing if not thorough.
    salons are better


    i like them better because it's more personal and even though its more expensive it just feels more personal
    I am losing my hair so I go to a barber cause it's cheaper.
    Barbershop = guy conversation
    i like a barber shop where they use clippers instead of scissors hard to find now days but there is one close to my house. do barbers still give a shave (straight razor)have not see that in years.

    What do salons and barbers soak their combs in?

    The product most professionals use is called barbacide and it is a disinfectant and anti-fungas and a few other things.......... not remembering my beauty school training very well =P It can be purchased at any salon professional store it comes in a liquid or a dry form that you add to water.What do salons and barbers soak their combs in?

    Is hair biodegradable?If not, then how do barbers dispose of hair from their salons?

    It is biodegradable. It could be composted.Some barbers and beauty shops package the hair because it can be used to keep animals away from plants. It is used for warding off animals that would eat commercial ly raised plants. Others just sweep it up and dispose of it in the trash.Is hair biodegradable?If not, then how do barbers dispose of hair from their salons?
    Hair is very resistant to decay.Is hair biodegradable?If not, then how do barbers dispose of hair from their salons?
    Yes it is biodegradable. I'm sure the barber throws it all away but as hair is mainly protein, it could be composted into a nitrogen source, though I would not know how strong a product as it would be used in agriculture/ gardening. If one is big on composting, hair sources might be a consideration, as so many things that have value are just tossed away.
    Hair is very biodegradable, and is great for the soil. Most barber shops simply sweep it up, and toss it away.





    Since I live on a farm, a lot of hair (fur %26amp; wool) is produced here! Our human hair also is tossed onto compost piles.





    The wild birds adore the hair, especially the long stuff from my horses manes and tails, and the wool from the sheep.





    I use to keep sheep (now just horses, goats, rabbits, dogs, and a couple of cats). There is little to no market for the wool, so instad of just tossing it into the garbage, I would spread it out in a new garden area. Great stuff, helps keep moisture in, and weeds out.





    Two of my dogs are Great Pyrenee's LGD's (livestock guardian dogs) so they produce TITANIC amounts of fur when they shed out.





    Fur or hair from any animal (even humans) can be collected and spun to make yarn. I've seen a GORGEOUS white wedding shawl made from the fur of Great Pyrenees. In the Victorian era there use to be a large number of people who would make really lovely jewelry from human hair. It was usually the hair of someone they were in love with, or the hair of a person who had recently passed away (a way of remembering that person).





    If you are concidering asking you local barber for their hair sweepings, please remember that people with head lice sometimes get their hair cut also, and you don't want them! If the hair is in a sealed plastic bag, toss it in the freezer for 24 hours, and all possiblity of lice is removed (all frozen dead). Or handle with gloves, and wash your hands, and forearms afterwards.





    Human hair also has wonderful insulative properties (though wool is better). The Germans shaved the heads of millions of people in concentration camps and used that hair to insulate their submarines (that's not too nice to think about though).





    If you compost, feel free to add hair, fur, or wool to your compost heap!
