Do It Vladdy!!

Might take a couple years off his age….lol

the dreads sure arent helping his bat
Bought some clippers at Target and have the girlfriend cut my hair every couple weeks

These things have paid for themselves at least 10 times over. Getting your hair cut should cost pennies, not twenties.

yup this is exactly what I do as well.......

and I buy a new one every 6 months or so……….saves me a ton.

I use clippers too

But I do it myself

I might go back to Fantastic Sam’s if they bring back the stylists’ nicknames above the mirrors. Bubbles gave me the best bowl cuts.

I bought a nice one from a friend who works at a beauty supply store. Discounted and one that the pros use. Wife does it for me. She likes 5 on the top and 3 on the sides. I like 2 on the top and ZERO on the sides.

Although, I become a bona-fide hippie if I am in the dog house for extended periods of time.

Next time

Try 0 on top, 2 on the sides

Nice. Sort of an inverted mohawk? ;)

When your bald like me...

A 1 all around goes well. If not, the Bozo look abounds!!

Funny Thing...

In the mid 60’s, I had hear down to my ass!! Military cut it. I will never forget seeing 2 1/2 foot of hair on the ground.

not too picky

i go probably every 2-4 months. random places, spend anywhere with a tip included $15-20.

I'm balding. Yay for me.
I don't need no stinking haircut anymore...

…neck shave is a different story, and that happens every 3 weeks +/-.

Vlad? He hit better when his hair was shorter. He’s the anti-Samsom. Hey, maybe we can send Vladdy to bat with the jawbone of an ass? Samson was able to slay an entire army with one, right?
The ass? Well, we can try to get Pyrzynski back for a ritual slaughter…

Cutting those locks will reduce wind friction and increase his speed;)

I hate haircuts. Do them as least as possible-about 5/year. Close to 20 bucks I pay. I remember I used to pay $2.50 for a two-line haircut, didn’t like that single edge blade on my sideburns though.

About once every 3 months

Recently I started going to the Paul Mitchell school where people are training to become professional hairstylists and it only costs $12 and they do a pretty good job.

I've been saying this for more than a year now...

CUT THE HAIR, VLAD!!! His numbers have gone down, while the injuries have gone up during his dreadlock days.

Every 6 - 8 weeks

I will admit to going to a stylist. There is something relaxing in having a woman massaging your scalp while washing your hair,

Is that head massage with or without the happy ending?
You know the guys who always keep their hair are the guys who have no use for hair. They're not trying to impress anybody.

Who’s that?

Like bums. You ever see a bald bum? They always have a beautiful head of hair. So why is that? I think it’s because they never wash it. It’s the only time you ever see your hair fall out is after you take your shower and you wash your hair, there’s a bunch of hair laying there. If I’d never washed my hair, I’d have a full head of hair. Of course, they could lose their hair, too. Maybe it just stays in. It’s just locked in there. If they ever washed it, they could be bald bums.

(paraphrasing Charles Grodin and Steve Martin)

try being a girl....it's expensive

I love the whole shampoo/scalp massage thing.

OK stat-heads....

maybe Vlad has a reverse Sampson complex. How were his numbers when he had the shorter ’do? Maybe the longer his hair grows, the worse he gets.

You have your assignment Go forth and staticize.

...this might require a Stirrups flowchart...
This is why I hate off days

I love my days off—-not theirs.
This is something for the off-season, we should at least have something good to talk about now/

Just Sayin’ …..

You people are insane

haven’t you ever heard of Sampson? You’ll sap whatever’s left of the poor man!

I think he should go with the Frederick Douglass Do

No way, mon. The dreads gotta stay, brah. As for me, I usually just clip to a #2, but lately my inner 80’s metalhead has been coming out and the hair is growing…..and bugging the hell out of me!

yes Vlad needs a cut

and i go to a stylist, and she’s awesome.
it’s every 3-4 weeks for me. usually 15-20 bucks.

Usually just go to Supercuts every 3 months or so

but last time I tried SportClips (there’s one by my office), and I got the full up treatment with neck and back massage….

NICE

Haircut, I don't need no stinkin haircut.

Seriously, I haven’t had it cut in years.

must be like

THIS!

havent had a haircut in about 8 months or so.

usually about once a year, but i think its time to go with some shorter hair for a while, especially during the summer

I like to get one about 2-3 months in btwn

6 on top, 3-4 on sides…

When Artie changes his name to George

then all the Angels cancut their hair trim their facial hair. Until then:
“Gimme a head with hair…”

Question Number 2: Should Dondo grow his dreads back??

He was pitching better with em, thats for sure!

I got my first strand of silver hair last year...

at age 24. It remains the only strand of grey/silver i have. Right in the front of my “swoop” above my forehead. WTF?

Secret of gray hair

Every gray hair I got, I got a date. It added up. Chicks dig it.

i agree...

but at this point it is one-single, strand of gray hair.

Now if it turned into a “streak of silver” then I’d be painting the down red and suddenly develop a limp.

Every Sunday.

It has to be fresh on Monday. I got a barber who does it for me in Westminster, $7, thats $28 for a month. Razor cut on the sides and 2 on top with a high fade, otherwise known as, THE HIGH AND TIGHT. But hey if I let just any person do it I will get crap for a “unsat” haircut. Plus I have to shave everyday. Can you say, “cant wait to be a civilian again.”

If you're a Mormon, does it matter?

Just kidding you…my neice and nephews are Mormon…I like them. A lot. Good people (though I don’t share their faith).

Keep the Hair

Keep the hair vlad, the dreads are cool!!!

One word

Flowbee.

The best way to go

Date the stylist, you get the head massage, with the happy ending and a free haircut out off it.

Now that those days have passed, I go through phases

1. 0 setting on the clippers shaved 2 times a week
2. Stylist medium/high fade 0 to 1 1/2" on top cut about every 2 weeks (cut but the stylist mentioned above, sadly without the happy ending)
3. Current stage, haven’t seen my hair longer that 2" long in the last 18 years. I’m letting it grow a little.

No one

should even consider second guessing Vlad’s personal appearance decisions. He is a baseball God and his decisions should go unquestioned.

All hail Vlady! All hail Vlady!
