Awoman last touched my hair in 2000. Since then, I always go to Caxton, a male hair dresser in Lords and Ladies Saloon,†says Erina Zawedde. Like Zawedde, many women prefer male hair dressers to female ones. So are men better hair dressers than women?
Steve Kanene, a mobile hair designer in Mukono says women cherish male hairdressers because they are bold enough to suggest new hairstyles to the women. “We can even suggest which dress a woman should wear to match with a hair style,†says Kanene. He adds that female hairdressers will most likely stick to the styles the clients want.
Caxtone Buule, a hair stylist with Lords and Ladies on Parliament Avenue says women prefer men because they are emotionally calmer than women. “Female hair dressers often lose their temper especially when faced with rude customers,†he says.
He agrees with Kanene, that female hairdressers restrict themselves to what customers want. “Men freely apply their creativity and come up with unique hair styles.â€
Zawedde justifies her preference for male hairdressers: “Women generally do not compliment you. They bore customers by not talking to them.â€
Sarah Namu, who also prefers men sums it all up with: “Men are more creative and interactive.â€
