How often do you get a Haircut?
Since the start of 2020, how often have you been getting a haircut?
In much of the US, hair salons, beauty parlors and barbershops were forced to close for around 4 months. Even after re-opening, they still require people to wear masks continuously while getting a haircut. And most salons limit occupancy levels and take your temperature before accepting you.
Myself and Nancy Pelosi are Superior Beings
I cannot go for more than 4-5 weeks without getting a haircut. I explain why in the original version of this post further below. Ever since the Coronavirus pandemic started in 2020, I have tried to prolong this time frame. However, I could never go beyond 2 months.
Ultimately, I got 2 haircuts illegally this year. Without wearing a mask. Without getting my temperature taken. And by going to an illegally open barbershop operated by a wonderful woman. As far as I could tell, even the local police supported this small business owner. Do I feel superior and think that some nonsensical laws do not apply to me? Yes.
This week, Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi joined me in feeling superior to others. Or, more likely, she always had a superiority complex and I was late to the party? In Mrs. Pelosi’s hometown of San Francisco, getting a hair blowout indoor salon or spa treatment is still currently illegal. Me and Mrs. Pelosi laugh at all those who follow these rules.
The one difference is that unlike Mrs. Pelosi (and also unlike Dr. Anthony Fauci), I do not scare people into following rules that I do not believe in myself. I may have a superiority complex, but I doubt that I will ever have a hypocritical complex.

How often do you get a Haircut?
There was a time when my hair was always perfect. Lengthy, silky, symmetrical growth, no dandruff, no itching, no curliness above the ears, and absolutely no thinning areas. I could go months without a haircut and still look well groomed. Moreover, I rarely ever shampooed my hair, and often washed it just once or twice a week (with only water).
Over the years, as male hormones and genetics have taken over, I now have to get a haircut every 4-5 weeks in order to prevent whats left from getting out of hand. Moreover, I now have to wash my hair every single day, and am forced to use Nizoral shampoo once a week to control the itching and inflammation. It seems like whenever I try to delay my haircut beyond 5 weeks after my prior one, I get more frequent itching and overall bad hair quality and texture. I even start pulling out my own hair after 5 weeks of keeping it uncut.
Scott Walker’s Haircut Obsession
I started to think about all the above after:
- Seeing my alcoholic hirsute friend get a haircut after 6 months this week! What is it with so many alcoholics and great hair?
- Reading the below entertaining and well researched Twitter feed from Christopher Ingraham. The leading current Republican presidential candidate Wisconsin governor Scott Walker is obsessed with getting haircuts! He has mentioned the word “haircut” 19 times on his Twitter feed, including 5 times in 2011:
Based on the spacing of those tweets, it seems like Mr. Walker got a haircut every 2.5 to 3 months in 2011, unless he forgot to mention a few more in between. I am surprised that Mr. Walker waited so long to get haircuts, since he is balding significantly per his latest photos. Balding men need to get more frequent haircuts. Perhaps in 2011, Mr. Walker was not balding as severely as he is today? Even funnier, Mr. Walker had one of the wackiest explanations you will ever hear when asked to discuss his balding last year:
Governor Scott Walker recently mentioned his bald spot and attributed it to bumping his head on a kitchen cabinet.
Politicians and their Hair
This election season is shaping up to be the most comedic one ever, with a lot of focus on hair. Both Scott Walker and Donald Trump are now among the leading candidates for the Republican nomination.
Hopefully we will soon also find out how often Mr. Trump gets a haircut or how often he gets his toupee replaced if that is really not his hair. I am, however, beginning to believe his claims that it really is his own hair. Edit: See my newer posts on Donald Trump’s hair.
Other leading candidates Marco Rubio and Mike Huckabee have also been asked about their receding hairlines and bald spots. All of this marks a great improvement from follically blessed Democrat John Edwards and his $400 haircuts.
Unfortunately, we are still a long way from getting a Norwood 7 elected into the White House. Perhaps once a women is elected as President, they will finally focus on electing a bald male? Or, even better, a man with an obvious combover?
