"Oh no, not another hair thread"

This one is a bit different.

I get my hair cut and a mildly trendy place, as they give you nice coffee in the day, beer in the evening, and I don't have to ask what I want. I just sit down, beer in hand, and let the lady loose on the barnet.

I returned the other day and realised I now have a 'marcel kittel' do - which apparently is all the rage with the kids.

The question is - will this now improve my sprint?

    You'll now produce 11% more power. Add red highlights for a further 3%.

    Having done a quick image search, I think it could also be described as a 'Robbie Savage'

    I am pleased and disturbed by the Robbie Savage. Does this mean I will now be good at football and ballroom dancing? if so, excellent.

    No - it means you'll be mediocre at both.

    admit it - it's really just a pub and a mad old drunk woman wandering around with a pair of scissors?

    haha, fair enough.

    In fairness (and i'm almost regretting typing this already) I quite like Robbie Savage, he's a bit of a fool but will probably be the first to admit it!

    Don't hair cuttings get into your pint?

    they serve it in bottles, hasn't been an issue so far.

    On a serious note, my barber gives us drinks too. If you reach for the drink he stops cutting until you've had your drink. It's great.

    Might as well get the barber to do your legs with the clipper while you're there :D
