My hair is growing longer. If I don’t do anything about my hair, it’s going to end up becoming like my bulu pubis. So I figure it’s time for me to groom cut my shaggy head. Youngsters enjoy going to fancy hair saloon like Thomas & Guys, Britney & Girls to get their hair electrocuted.
Sometimes I also patronize these fancy saloons but since Christmas is lurking around the corner, it’s better to save some money. Last time my hair used to be molested by an indian uncle who ply his trade under a large Angsana tree and it cost only 4 ringgit. It was a sight to behold, to be able to see a guy getting his hair cut under a large tree. But it only applies when the weather is good lah.
No crazy ass wants to get their hair cut when the lightning is raping the tallest objects it can find. Too bad the tree got cut down and I do not know where the uncle went. I think he shifted to the beach where many coconut trees can be found. Since that uncle is no where to found, I went to another barber. Ironically, this barber also operates under a tree.

I bet the barber worships God Tree to prevent this tree being struck by the lightning.
The only difference is, he cut people’s head in a shop, unlike the indian uncle who decapitates his victim’s hair in open air.

This barber operates in a shop, which is air conditioned. Not bad for a traditional hair cutter. Since this shop is air conditioned, I am amazed with the level of the consciousness of these guys sitting on the left and right.

No, they did not fall asleep waiting for their turn while I pip them from behind. They are there to sleep, not to get their hair cut and that barber doesn’t seem to care if they are there to enjoy the aircon. How generous of him.

The whole process of the hair cutting was pretty quick, so I didn’t have the opportunity to snap photos of him raping my hair. Furthermore, it would be quite awkward if I suddenly point my camera on his head. I thought Kenny Sia’s Swee Mei hairstyle is old school enough, but I think he should pay a visit to this barber next time if he ever visits Malacca again because this is what the barber did to my hair:-

Thanks to him, I now resembles the look of the fuglier version of Clark Gable. This time I am not going to do a “Gone With The Wind”. It’s more like how my hair has ‘Gone To The Bin’. To be fair with him, you don’t expect him to decorate your hair like Jiraiya in Naruto with 7 Ringgit so I guess it was a good bargain.
Well, almost.
