Ryan gets a Haircut in Sign Language.

It is starting to get ridiculously hot out

and my hair was starting to get out of 

control so I nervously went to go get 

my hair cut. As I entered the Barber

Shop I was greeted by 3 girls that spoke

to me in Chinese and then giggled when

I said "Ting Bu Dong" (I don't understand)

and proceeded to make a haircutting gesture

with my index and middle fingers. They

kindly directed me to a seat where I was

given the following services. 

Shampoo

Neck Massage

Scalp Massage

Head Scratching

Rinse

Ear Cleaning

Neck Massage (Again)

Hair Cut

A Pomegranate Juice

Straight Shave

Blow Dry

I was pretty nervous as half of the staff

surrounded me to watch the westerner

get his hair cut. The girl who did the 

cutting had the same hair as Linda from

the movie "The Wedding Singer", which

did nothing to calm my nerves. When all

was said and done, I had a really weird 

Tony Danza from "Who's the Boss" hair

cut. I was directed to the counter where

I was given the price for the above services.

15RMB. That is just a few cents north of 

2USD. Let that register. In America you

would be stretched to find Pomegranate 

Juice for 2 dollars. And, after I left I did

my swoopy thing and my hair was fine

again. 

I also shaved my mustache but I am not 

ready to drop that bomb on you, so I

photoshop'd one on.
