How to get a free haircut by Ali. One dude wrote a text on getting a free haircut, which was pretty lame, so here's my take on getting a freebie in barbershop: - find some kiddo playing on the street who doesn't know you (hardest thing to do), - ask him if he wants a free haircut, - go to a barbershop with that kiddo, and get your hair done, - then, tell the barber to cut "your son's/little brother's" hair, while you quickly go out to buy some newspaper/gum/ etc. - leave with a free haircut. .
