Haircut (short story)

  • Type: Short Story
  • Length: 11 pages

Haircut is a 1925 short story by Michigan native, Ring Lardner. - AsNotedIn

I got another barber that comes over from Carterville and helps me out Saturdays, but the rest of the time I can get along all right alone. You can see for yourself that this ain't no New York City and besides that, the most of the boys works all day and don't have no leisure to drop in here and get themselves prettied up.
