I would guess that there are a few others here who don't like getting their hair cut! I'm fairly certain that I haven't visited a barber in 20+ years. My grandfather boasted that he only had his hair cut twice in his life: for his wedding and his mother's funeral. I didn't have mine cut for either of those occasions. I always justified not doing it because of the expense, but in truth it's more to do with having someone get so close and having to make small talk. I didn't go to the dentist for 20+ years either, which I called dental phobia, though having someone "man handle" me was probably more of a problem than the dental phobia, to be honest.I imagine people may relate to this experience...
I don't like getting my hair cut, for the reasons you mention. Also the small talk often involves my hair, which feels intrusive- although I've come to realize that it's not intended as such. Women are meant to talk about their hair I think. Anyway, avoid!
Dentists - awful, I hate the whole thing. I recently had to go, the dog having knocked out some teeth - but in fact since I had to go a few times, I got more used to it, the dentist is nice, astonishingly, maybe I can cope?
These are things that I imagine are easy for most people.
