You're going to be absolutely blown away by how much things have changed. They all use laser scissors and quantum clippers now.

Thinking about getting my barnet professionally cut for the first time in about two decades. What's the crack nowadays? Pretty sure they still use scissors and clippers these days. |

You get your head massaged while they wash your hair, you don’t have to tip the trainee who does it, the coffee is free and it’ll cost you about £50
Unless you go to a barber, where it’ll be a tenner and you can choose your style from the black and white headshots on the wall

Treat yourself at a decent place. Makes the world of difference imo

Because he gets his hair cut there, obviously. |

Yep, an £8 haircut is cheap for a reason.

I’ve been going to the same hairdresser for 10 years, he’s cut my hair in 6 salons around London whenever he’s moved jobs

From what I've seen, it's all cigarette lighters to the ear, cotton buds up the nostrils and plasticine stuck to the face.

Depends where you go really. That's the norm for Turkish barbers, and well worth trying out. Hot towels are fucking amazing! Getting your hair washed as part of the service is pretty handy too, no need to jump in the shower and change your clothes afterwards to get rid of all the itchy stray hairs.
My issue with mine is that you rarely get the same barber. Some I'll actively try to avoid now.
Johnny British barber will just do the regular cut and send you on your way.

Right, I nicked the sack four times when I last used the trimmer, so it's time to go the cream route. All the sensitive skin Veet say 'don't use on your genitals', so what am I meant to use. Are there special creams for ballsacks?

Never used Veet, used 'NO Hair Crew' off Amazon, seems alright, apply liberally and for the max time, don't use any showergel etc to wash it off just water. Expect 24hrs of varying degrees of discomfort. Don't risk looking at yourself in the mirror whilst you're half way through.

Pretty sure Veet intimate is OK to use everywhere down there apart from on your ringpiece. I hope so anyway as I need to try that soon...

I didn't react to it at all, but make sure you do the 24hr test before you take the plunge. |

I can confirm veet intimate is even OK for the ring piece.

Yeah, the side of the box of Veet intimate goes into specifics of parts of your manhood that it's ok to use on. Basically don't put any on the tip or up your bum and you should be good to go.
Scrotum is such an underused word...

If it's woman cutting your hair ask for a "Brixton Tickle". If it's a man request the "Lambeth Sunrise"
