In terms of service ay excellent naman ang barber shop na ito kaya palaging box-office ang pila especially on Sundays and lalo na itong barber ko. Magaling kasi si Kuya.
Anyway, I’ve not been to that barber shop for a very long time because of the economy. Mahal din kasi ang magpagupit every week noh. Alam niyo naman I’m hiyang na ako sa aking no-hair look and I’m happy with it. Hindi magastos sa shampoo. Hahaha! At first, I thought makakatipid ako kapag wala nang buhok pero hindi pala. It’s just the same. Kelangan pa rin ng shampoo and conditioner noh. Yun nga lang, minimal na lang. But maintaining this look, well you gotta have it shaved every week (at least in my case) kasi mabilis humaba ang aking hair. Haircut is expensive kahit sa barber shop. And haircut sa salon is more expensive. I think. Unless sa tabi-tabi lang kayo magpagupit and doesn’t mind a little kaartehan like I do, read: hygiene and cleanliness, eh dun kayo. Yung pumupunta naman sa bahay namin na parlorista ni Mother and Ate doesn’t have a clipper kaya hindi rin ako maka-avail sa promo rates nya. Hehehe. Sa suking barber shop ko, haircut is around P120-P140. I’m not sure na if that’s still their rates ngayon. Plus tip, it can go up to P200. Mahal na yon di ba.
So instead of going there on a weekly basis, I bought myself a hair clipper, yung popular brand, recommended by a friend who works in a salon. At least ito magagamit ko everytime gustuhin ko. I won’t have to pay anybody pa. And everytime I shave my hair sa harap ng salamin feeling ko ako si Demi Moore sa “G.I. Jane” or si Robin Tunney sa “Empire Records”. Or si Sinead O’Connor sa “Nothing Compares to U” or si Dolores O’Riordan ng The Cranberries. Hahaha!
Sometimes I regret shaving my head nine years ago. Nami-miss ko rin ang aking dating long and luscious hair. Miss ko na itong iponytail or i-chignon. Feeling ko noon na naka-high ponytail ang hair ko ay para akong si Naomi Campbell na naglalakad sa catwalk. At tuwing naka-chignon naman ito feeling ko isa akong beauty queen na puputungan ng Miss Universe crown. Hahaha! Hate na hate ko kapag napupunta ang ilang strands ng buhok sa face ko. Nangangati and I was getting pimples.
Actually yun talaga ang reason why I shaved all of my hair. Allergic yata ang gorgeous face ko sa buhok. Hahaha! Nakakailang bumeso kasi nga medyo may rough portions ang aking pisngi. In fairness ngayon ay smooth na ulet ang aking rosy and kissable cheeks.
Anyway highway, I think I will maintain this kalbo look for a very long time. Hindi na ako mukhang gusgusin. Hahaha!
