Speaker 2 (00:03):
I saw an interview with George Clooney who's being interviewed
for Women's magazine, and he was talking about with twins
the chores that are involved, and he says he does
some of those chores. He said, there's always dishes to do. Yeah,
you have to wash the kids, because he said they're slobs.

Speaker 1 (00:19):
We gotta wash your kids and get him out in
the backyard with the host.

Speaker 2 (00:22):
He also said this he would have taken on as
a hobby, two or three loads of laundry a day.

Speaker 1 (00:30):
I cut his hair.

Speaker 3 (00:31):
I cut my hair, and I've always cut my own hair.

Speaker 1 (00:33):
He's always cut his own hair.

Speaker 2 (00:34):
But he said he doesn't cut his daughter's hair because
it's really long and his wife would kill him, so
he only.

Speaker 4 (00:38):
Cuts the boy hair.

Speaker 2 (00:42):
But their kids are about eight now, I think, aren't
they So he cuts George cuts his own hair and
cuts his son's hair.

Speaker 1 (00:47):
At that age.

Speaker 5 (00:48):
There is a time when you can cut the son's
hair or daughter's hair at home.

Speaker 1 (00:53):
Oh, there's a lot of time. But my daughter, she
was always infested with knits. There was a time there
I was just going to shave.

Speaker 2 (01:00):
Couple of our years, there were all we did was
wash the knits out, because you.

Speaker 1 (01:04):
Know what they have all this woke knit treatment these days.

Speaker 5 (01:08):
In my day they had a flame thrower. They put
caro in your hair and you never had knits again.
And then it's cool environment. Anyway, that's for another time.

Speaker 4 (01:16):
I hope it's for another time.

Speaker 1 (01:17):
All this win, my dude, that's when I go after
to talk back radio.

Speaker 4 (01:20):
Yeah, please say it for them, save it for them.

Speaker 6 (01:22):
But the boy's hair, you get one of those clippers
from you know, the two dollars shop.

Speaker 4 (01:27):
You make it sound very easy.

Speaker 2 (01:29):
A couple of like during COVID and things like that,
I would cut Harley's hair and I bought one of
those clipper things. And then not so long or maybe
a couple of years ago, we went to a party.

Speaker 4 (01:41):
I said to Harry, I'll give you a haircut.

Speaker 2 (01:44):
And I meant to just move the clipper lightly over
his hair, but I didn't have a guard on it,
and it looked like he'd had a lobotomy because.

Speaker 4 (01:54):
There's one giant bald patch at the front.

Speaker 2 (01:58):
And I texted the kids who had come out of
and said, don't mention it. He's done a drawing of
how he looked for a card he gave me for Christmas.
It's just a cartoon of his face, just with one
giant bald patch on his head, because that's exactly how
it looked.

Speaker 4 (02:13):
Yeah, I felt terrible.

Speaker 6 (02:15):
I've seen you throw darts and you have cut my
hair in the past and you I.

Speaker 4 (02:19):
Didn't do a bad job. He made a hash of it,
I know, but I shouldn't do it with clippers.

Speaker 1 (02:22):
You go with a small talk.

Speaker 4 (02:24):
I'll say that Conny Holidays coming up.

Speaker 1 (02:43):
I remember my youngest son.

Speaker 6 (02:45):
We were over in a New Zealand and I had
to give him a last minute haircut because we're going
to put him into the little ski wee lamb where
they look after the kids while you go skiing.

Speaker 1 (02:53):
And then I saw the nets.

Speaker 4 (02:55):
Oh we can't have it. No, that's what a beanie say.

Speaker 7 (03:18):
In details hair a magician.

Speaker 2 (03:20):
These days, people spend so much on their school formals
and they get their hair and their makeup here. Melanie
came over to my place with Melanie, my good friend Melanie,
to do my hair for my school formal. And she
brought along her curling wand which was it had one
temperature and that was scalding, and so she wounded around
my hair and then it got jammed in there and

(03:40):
was getting closer and closer to my scalp the heat,
and we're trying to.

Speaker 4 (03:43):
Rip it out. I just you know, it wasn't a
good look.

Speaker 1 (03:46):
So how did you have the resolvers? If you went
along to the formal with that hair?

Speaker 4 (03:50):
That was my date for the night. I was highly charged.

Speaker 1 (03:57):
Brad has choice.

Speaker 4 (03:58):
Hello, Brad, what was it? What was the haircut? Who
was giving what?

Speaker 3 (04:03):
Yeah?

Speaker 7 (04:04):
I don't know, it was me. I don't know if
James has been going for this. So, but as you
get older, you start the channel John held, and your eyebrows, son,
you know, just get a bit wild. So I bought
some clippers to do it. I'd done one side with
the number two the phone rang, I got on the phone,
I put the clippers down underknownst to me the guard.

Speaker 3 (04:20):
Had fallen off.

Speaker 7 (04:21):
So I went to the other one and born the
other eyebrows gone totally gone off.

Speaker 1 (04:27):
Oh you'd be careful with that when you're trimming your
trunk as well.

Speaker 4 (04:31):
Oh okay, thank you.

Speaker 1 (04:33):
Thanks Brett Sandras.

Speaker 4 (04:34):
Hello, Sandra, Hi, here you going. You will tell us
about the haircut.

Speaker 8 (04:40):
Many years ago, my mum used to look after children
and we had this little Dutch family. So two little
Dutch girls with absolutely gorgeous long blonde hair dunning plat.
My sister and I always had short hair. One day,
my sister decided to play the hairdressing. She cut off
one of the plat, and when her mother came to

(05:02):
pick her up, my mom said.

Speaker 2 (05:04):
I have some good news and I have some bad news.

Speaker 8 (05:08):
She held up the plant and she said, the good
news is I've been able to eaven it. Out, Oh,
really cute little Bob, Oh.

Speaker 4 (05:18):
Little Bob. The other on the long flowing blonde locks.
And this one twin, she's cropped at the skull.

Speaker 1 (05:25):
That's how evil twins are.

Speaker 5 (05:26):
For the years of therapy, a middle aged woman, now Robin,
has choined, Hello.

Speaker 4 (05:32):
Robin, Hi, how are you going well? What was the
trauma around the hair?

Speaker 8 (05:38):
Well?

Speaker 9 (05:38):
When I was about thirteen, I had a party at
home with the school friends, and I fancied myself as
my lifetime career would be a hairdresser. So got out
mum's clippers and had the scissors, and my friend had
her hair down to the middle of her back, and
I cut one side and then I cut the other side,
which wasn't matching the first side, and then I tried

(05:59):
to eat it out out. By the time I'd finished it,
the hair was up around her ears and my mum
was freaking out. Luckily, the girl's mum was really really
happy because she said, oh, I always wanted her to
get a cut.

Speaker 1 (06:13):
Oh, so it was out.

Speaker 9 (06:14):
I went down, But I never became a hairdresser.

Speaker 6 (06:18):
Have you seen those girls that when you said those
cutting things, I sort of had a feeling that you
might not have gone out the path of hair dressing.

Speaker 2 (06:24):
When you see those girls on Instagram who pull their
fringe down to cut their fringe and inevitably it just
bobs up and they pretty much now have Elizabeth the
first hairline.

Speaker 1 (06:35):
Don't do it? Thank you, Robin. Sarah's with us all
I Sarah?

Speaker 4 (06:38):
Who cut whose hair? Oh?

Speaker 3 (06:41):
Good morning guys. I can't decide whether I have to
tell you about the timon happened to me or when
I did it to someone else. So I was in kindergarten, Yeah,
and my mum gave us one of those horribly matching
bowld cuts for my sister and I staners to school.
I got teas around going you're a boy, you're a boy?
Said the next day, she's enders back with pig ribbons

(07:01):
in our hair after so I think I'm just think
I'm selling therapy for that one. And the other time
my ex husband, I said I'd cut his hair, and
he had a really kind of short close to his kids.
But the actual tooth a comb broken, so I didn't
notice I'd put the wrong one on, and I just

(07:23):
I was paying attention. And next thing, he had stripes
up the back of your kids like he was a zebra,
and he just I didn't tell him because a little
let's started so I had to keep finishing, and I
just set him to work, and then he came home
and went, oh my god, everybody laughed at me.

Speaker 2 (07:39):
Your ex husband volumes there, yeah yeah, yeah, Well, thank
you for all your calls.
