Hairy Shearers

Location Information Use: Hair salon Employees: Julio

Hairy Shearers is a hair salon in Springfield.

History

Marge Simpson is a longtime patron of Hairy Shearers.^[1]

The salon once refused to honor Marge's coupon for two free hair streaks. When Homer confronted the manager, the manager protested that the cost of streaking that much hair would ruin him financially. After inspecting the salon's accounting records, Homer agreed with the manager and was shocked at how thin the salon's profit margins were. However, he also noted that the salon was spending $400 a month for loafer lightener, when they could achieve the same results with a mincing gel. The manager was grateful for the money-saving idea and then gave Marge her free hair streaks.^[2]

While Apu Nahasapeemapetilon was trying out the swinging bachelor lifestyle, he visited the salon and tried out several new hairstyles.^[3]

When Marge discovered a grey hair, she told Julio about it during her next visit to the salon. Julio confessed that he had been secretly dyeing her hair blue for years, but because the fumes from the dye caused partial memory loss, Marge had no memory of the dye treatments.^[1]
