Men do you prefer a male or female to cut your hair, why?

48 comments

1. I prefer to cut it myself.

2. If I had hair to cut it wouldn’t matter to me.

3. Gay man or a female from the hood.

4. [deleted]

5. Makes no difference to me, but every barbershop I’ve been to was exclusively staffed by men.

6. It really depends on the person’s preference. For me, it doesn’t matter if it’s a male or female barber cutting my hair as long as they have the skills and experience to give me the cut I want. I just want to make sure that the barber has good attention to detail and is able to understand what kind of hairstyle I’m looking for.

7. I just prefer they actually know how to cut fuckin hair. I don’t care about any of the other details

8. Yes.

9. Gay male. Idk why, I feel like they’d get it right. I may have not met the right female, but they want to go off and do their own thing

10. I don’t care.

11. one of my homies cuts my hear but i couldn’t care less about the gender lol

12. Dudes have always done a better job cutting my hair.

13. I’m sure that there is no difference in quality, but I’d prefer a woman because I don’t like being touched by men.

14. I have no preference, I just get told if it looks good by my wife when I get home. I can’t even tell if I have a good haircut.

15. Really makes zero difference to me.

16. Don’t really care, just make sure my fade is good.

17. Female. I don’t think guys listen to me when I tell them how I want my hair cut. Been going to same woman for 15 years.

18. Male. I do it much better than my SO

19. I prefer my mom cuts my hair.

20. Female, don’t wanna explain

21. My mom is the only one who cuts my hair and it’ll be like that until she can’t anymore.

22. Old Italian man only. No one else

23. I have a female barber. I find women easier to converse with. When a dude cuts my hair, there’s usually awkward silence.

24. It really comes down to their style or where they beat specialize. Otherwise, I don’t particularly care. As someone who is actually very cautious with getting their hair cut, it’s just hair at the end of the day and it’ll grow back

25. Skill over gender and barbers over stylists. Right now a female barber does mine.

26. I only had my hair cut by men.

27. Don’t care as long as they’re a barber

28. My dad once asked me why I go to a beauty shop to get my hair cut. I told him I don’t get off in a guy running his fingers thru my hair. He never asked again

29. Men, specifically there is one men’s barbershop that I pretty much exclusively go to for the last 10 years or so, with the exception of emergencies when I can’t drive out there.

30. I like a straight bald man that looks just like me to shave my head.

31. Neither unless they have a license to cut hair.

32. I have a female barber that knows what I want. I go there and she’s like “the usual?”. I’ll never go anywhere else.

33. My girlfriend cuts my hair

34. I usually cut my own hair, but if I go to a salon, I don’t care at all who it is as long as they stay silent. There is nothing worse than being cut by and obsessive chatter mouth, no matter which gender.

35. I prefer a skilled barber. Although, at BCT there was this huge older black man with the gentlest voice in the entire world. He would rest your head on his stomach and hum while he cut your hair. Best 60 seconds ever

36. no preference as long as they can work with curly hair

37. frankly, I will always choose a lesbian to cut my hair. no one does men’s haircuts better.

38. I don’t think there’s a difference. In my case, a female cuts my hair, but I think a man could do the same haircut.

39. I’m indifferent, I just want someone who can cut my hair without fucking it up.

40. Best cuts I’ve ever gotten have all been from gay men.

41. I don’t care, I will take the first barber or stylist that is open at whatever place I get my haircut this time.

42. Doesn’t matter.

43. It doesn’t matter. Wifey is going to tell them how to cut my hair anyway!?!

44. I’ve had equally great experiences with both. But males tend to just not talk and I like that best

45. Don’t care. Make me look good, here’s your money, see ya next time

46. I prefer someone who can give me a good haircut, and not want to chat all the time.

47. I never had a problem with either doing my hair as long as they took the time to give advice and listen while focusing on giving me the best look. The only problems I had were with people that didn’t want to be there doing their jobs.

48. I will be 35 this year and always had female barber/hairdresser.
