I've been here since June. I get a haircut about once a month because I tend to get a short mid fade, like an ivy league, and just long enough on top to spike the front. It then grows out over a month and I start doing a side part.

So when I come back it's in a side part. I show a picture of the ivy league haircut with the spiked front.

They don't wet it and comb it forward. They get the fade right but the top they just cut like a shorter side part which doesn't work because it just sticks up and the sides are uneven.

One guy got it right so far. I get the feeling he actually knew what he was doing as he even had better suggestions for my beard length.

But these other guys just seem to give you a shorter version of what you come in with even if you've shown them something completely different.

So now I sit here with a patch missing on one side of the top.

And the beard. Goodness. Didn't fade it up, had to be told to bring the line up higher on my neck three times, and he cut me with the clippers.

Anyway, end rant. Just don't remember having to step for step explain a simple crew cut variation and beard trim.

Just found this subreddit. I recently moved here and am living in a province but I still like to visit the city that's about 45 minutes away.

Looking for suggestions for a dual sport bike. I recently saw the PG-1 and really liked it but it's top speed wouldn't do too well on the expressway.

I'm used to driving a Kawisaki W800 back in the US. New to driving here so I'm not sure how much power I realistically need for casual riding.
