While ordering a crew cut is easy, since it’s on the menu, what about other kinds?
Can you just go “I’d like a men/women’s haircut” and leave it at that, or do you need something more specific, like saying you want a Charlestone done by a No. 3 to the sides, and a 4 up top?
If they’re good at their job, you can ask pretty much anything and they’ll ask follow-up questions. If not they’ll infer what to do or do one of the standard haircuts.
