There are 2 categories of hairdresser: good and bad. Not in terms of cutting hair. Most creatures with opposable thumbs can cut hair. It is not rocket science. The division occurs in terms of chat. Good barbers should have known the Kray twins and have acted as their ‘persuader’ whilst giving wet shaves to their enemies. They use terms like ‘something for the weekend’ ‘Nancy boy’ and ‘when I was in the SAS’. Good tonsorial artists never ask where you are going on holiday, how your day has been, or for your opinion on Deirdre Barlow. They also never chew gum and look out of the window when they cut your hair. The only range of hair styling product they sell is shampoo and maybe a tonic involving bay rum. These would not involve plant extracts, purifying agents, or pseudo science. Aloe Vera is a greeting to these artisans.
As with barmen there is no such thing as a good Antipodean hairdresser.
