My Pops had one for the past 10 years and finally began shaving it for ease just recently. I think I had a flattop from 2nd - 5th grade....I remember Dad searching for and finding the perfect flattop barber.

I had a flattop for several years. It wouldn't look as good today as it did back then due to a little receding.

I'm probably between stage 2 and stage 3 on the list. No bad for being almost 40.

I always tried to get a flattop......never worked because my head is too pointy and also the hair in the middle wasn't dense enough to stay vertical.

My haircuts cost $14 and I usually tip $3 for a total of $17.

Oh yeah...it's a flattop too.

I use to have a flattop for a couple of years. I liked it but after 2weeks it was insane long (I have thick hair that grows fast). Always took a while for me to get it straight because I have wavy hair.

i go to a barber shop in town, cut is $10, yeah I tip them a few bucks each time. Plus they never ever screw it up. if I had a dollar for every beauty school drop out who said she knew how to cut a flat top, I'd be rich. they can rub their tits on my arm all they want if I walk out looking like a fuzzy eight ball I'm not going to tip you, and I probably won't be back to give you a second chance.
Have you seen what some places charge for rent? I'm surprised they can stay in business doing cuts for $20.

Yeah, you wouldn't say tha if you saw me bald. As for the tip, I give $5 or more but my barber has been cutting my hair for five years and gave me the reference to my kick-ass contractor, saving me a ton of money on getting my house back to rights after it flooded.
