Finally wrote down the old barbershop sayings

Started keeping a little notebook of phrases I've heard over the chair — things clients say when they think I'm not really listening. The best one today: "Hair is the only part of you that forgives everything." A woman said it while I was trimming her split ends, then went right back to talking about her sister-in-law. I've been doing this forty years and I still don't know what half of them mean, but they feel like they belong somewhere.
