I was at a point where my hair was a little messy when i got up. It was time to refresh my haircut. I asked so many barbers if they had a electric clippers but many of them just work out from a booth rather than a real barber shop. I did not want to spent too long on the chair but i almost try the hand clipper. It worked a bit like a scisor with the two big loops that you squeeze. I changed my mind thinking that it could be pulling at my hair a bit.
One of the barber was more insistent and said yes when i asked if he had a clipper. Once i sat down, he started cutting my hair with scisors. We never know how much they understand when you speak english to them so i stayed there thinking it was maybe a misunderstaining. Moreover, he had already made his mark on the top of my head. It takes time and the result is not that satisfying, both sides are not quite even. I start getting up since he looks like he is done but he has to shave my neck. So i pointed out to my neck and he said ‘Yes, yes’ and put some cream on my face. I said ''NO'', i am in a hurry, which was also true. I let him do his thing for 2 minutes so that he can wipe that cream. He put some more instead. I said ''NO'' a little louder, i am in a hurry and I tried to get up. He stopped me putting his hands on my shoulders and continue to massage the cream on me. He does it with lots of determination and I ended up with some cream in my eyes. He wiped my face with a dirty rug that scraped my skin a bit, sprayed water on my skin so I tought, yeah, it’s over! The massage continued. Shit, I will need to be more firm maybe get mad! He used a thread to get cream off it seems of fine hairs. He keeps ''Nice?''. '' i am in a hurry and I don’t want this!'', ''two minutes, two minutes''. I finally got up after 10 or more minutes, it seemed to last forever. The other barber felt that I was really getting pissed off and that I was trying to see through the cream I had in my eyes and he convinced my barber to finally stop. I took out money and to make it worst, I don’t have the correct change. He looks at me and asked for more since I got a super facial! I am fed up at that point and told him that we had agreed on a price and that i said i did not want the face massage. ''OK, OK'' he said keeping all the money i gave him. Euhhh! No mister! I successed in getting some money back but i am so mad that i had to leave before i ended up kicking his ass. I could have taken him believe me! He continues to ask ''Happy? OK?'' Arrrgh! He then said ''Come back later for shoulder massage'' Yeah right.... I was ready to show him the major finger when Rob shows me one of the rug he uses. On it, you can see lices!!! I don’t believe it was the rug he used on me but still, they must all be in the same state. That was the cherry on the Sunday, my body starts itching everywhere and the walk to the guesthouse was pretty quick. I took a shower and changed my clothes! I will have to be more clear next time and maybe more direct, but you never want to be rude which can be useful sometimes.
