I just got my hair cut by a twentysomething covered with tattoos and piercings.

Ask me anything.

ETA: Forgot to mention the all-black clothing.

1. How distracting were the tatoos? Did they distract you from the pain

of thousands of screaming, violated hair follicles protesting your rejection of their natural end?

3. Hah... I've found that the more tattoos, piercings, and general unconventional dress...

the more conservative and conventional the result--even when I give them full license to "do as they please". Not bad by any means, just not the trendy or more free-wheeling creative result I'd expected. Now granted, they may be projecting their response based on how they view me, but it has always given me a chuckle.

So, what was your result?

[Brigid]

4. Not bad, actually.

I've had far worse from much more conventional-looking hairdressers.

5. Sounds like the barbers in the shop

next to where I work on Saturday's. They are Republicans to boot. My boss is a Liberal and it was interesting earlier in the year.
