Going to the barber’s/hairdresser’s

Thank you, Joseph! I love podcasts, so I’ll definitely listen to that. The terminology I was looking for was basically the standard cut that you may get at the barber’s, so I’ll list a few below:

  • Buzz Cut

  • Fade (a skin fade, for example)

  • Beard trim

  • Shave

  • Wash, blow-dry and style

  • Perhaps a request like “Short on the sides, neatened on top”, or “Could you just trim the top with scissors please?”

  • Other requests such as “Could you cut it a little shorter please” or “Can you thinnen it please?” (I know “thinnen” isn’t technically a verb, but I find it is used so often that it pretty much is nowadays :joy:)

  • Anything else that you can think of!

I would also be grateful for any other Podcasts recommendations that you may have! I have just been getting into the Practice Portuguese one, and I’m looking for a football one (perhaps one about Portuguese football?) It’s impossible to find something that isn’t Brazilian…

Cheers
