I've always closed my eyes and stayed silent the whole time, but for the past few times I've wondered what other people do.

Do you keep your eyes open?

Do you try to spark a conversation with whoever is cutting your hair?

Eyes open. Whoever cuts my hair usually chats with me. I couldn't imagine keeping my eyes closed!

eyes closed (they take of my glasses, so it's more irritating to have them open anyway), and a lot of times I fell asleep.

I make a conscious effort to avoid all small talk - its just awkwardness I can live without!

I usually just answer the questions that the hairdresser asks me while I stare into my own eyes in the mirror. :P

I usually look down or keep my eyes closed. One time though this hot hairdresser with a low cut blouse practically gave me a show... so it's good to keep your eyes open...

I stare at myself the whole time, like an idiot. Sometimes they try to engage in Hairdresser small-talk which I just can't stand. Normally they will say "My, You have thick hair".... DUH! I know! Now cut it off please...

I dont close my eyes.

I just try to remain calm because sometimes awkwardness makes me laugh.

I used to do that a lot with my eyes closed because I was afraid of hair going into my eyes, then one day a lady asked me if I was tired.... embarrassing. She thought I had fallen asleep. ugh.

Now I usually just chat if they are open for any discussions. I once had a really young, hot girl do my hair. I think she tried flirting with me... awkward...

That depends on in what way. Do you think of me as a God-man? If so, I'm flattered but I think I'll have to say that is not the case. :P

I awkwardly put up with the hairdresser's smalltalk while watching my hair being cut off in the mirror. Everytime I get my hair cut, I hate it, but I always leave with a positive attitude as if I really enjoy the haircuts I get.

I usually look around the room, glance in the mirror here and there to check how they're doing, sometimes chat a little bit. Nothing much else to do anyway.

I keep my eyes closed when I get the idea that I might get hair in them but typically that isn't often. I tend to stay quiet as my hair cuts only take around 3-4 minutes.

The main problem I have with watching my hair being cut is witnessing 'The Point' where the cut looks really good, but for some reason they keep on going! I'm like "Nooooo! But I'll sit tight because they know what they're doing... :( "

There is a mirror in front of me during haircut, so I just stare at myself most of the time.

I have to take my glasses off for haircut and it's annoying to have my eyes open as my eyesight is so blurred. So really I'd like to have my eyes closed but I can't because I think the hairdresser will think I'm strange.

Gah, I know. Happens every time. I like to have my hair long, and it seems that it's impossible for me to have a decent looking long style. I've never enjoyed my long hair. I've been wanting a change for a while, so today I got it cut it short, and now I want it long again... She ruined it. It was nothing like the picture. So I cut alot of it myself when I got home... Now it's just garbage.

I wants longer hair now, but not as long as before lol. I just wish it was like 4 or 5 months longer. But by then, I'll need to get it cut / texturized / layered... so.... actually this is going to take a long time. Now I know why most guys just cut their hair short.

I showed her this picture:  AS SHE WAS CUTTING IT, she told me that my hair would look absolutely NOTHING like the picture I was showing her. Yeah. Actually, she told me that "He probably just wakes up in the morning looking like that, his hair probably looks different everyday." Like... thanks, lady. Anyways now it's all screwed up cause I slashed it hardcore trying to fix it, but I kinda wish I just left it alone. Sorry, I'm kind of ranting, I mean hair grows back but it's really frustrating when you can never get ONE good haircut.

If I'm not chatting with the person cutting my hair (usually some Korean chick), I normally stare straight ahead into space. It's not hard to do after spending years standing in formation.

Most of the people with unique awesome cuts have a relative do it, cut it themselves, or do a hairstylist they know very well. I have this problem too. Sometimes it's good and sometimes it's bad. Seems like women only know how to cut women hair...

I don't mind it most of the time since my hair grows like 2 inches a month.

I just relax and sometimes close my eyes, but usually my eyes are open and I just do whatever the person who is cutting my hair needs me to do.
