Gimme a viskey, haircut on the side, and don’t be stingy baby
(posted by Angelica)
I am of two minds about this…part of me thinks ‘hmmm’, mixing sharp instruments and alcohol, that have the potential to go very badly. On the other hand, there is something irresistibly appealing about getting a haircut AND a whiskey at the same time. Especially at the price!
Morning Edition, March 20, 2008 · People have been gathering at a bar in the nation’s capital to take advantage of a Tuesday night promotion: Get a haircut, along with a shot of whiskey, for $12.
Since last year, patrons were able to come to the bar for a “buzz cut.” Then the promotion ended — not because the haircuts were bad, but because city officials cracked down. They say the bar didn’t have a permit.
The bar’s beauticians were licensed, but apparently — in D.C. — bars, or any establishment, need permits to serve up haircuts on their premises.

I hope the beauticians weren’t drinking too.
