Meh, the hairdresser is their to do his/her job, why should that effect if you answer the phone.. as long as it does not impede or interrupt their work, I wouldn't really be offended, but I could understand your point.. It could be perceived as rude.

I pay the barber to cut my hair. If I want to talk on my phone while he's performing a paid service for me, then frankly, that's my business. I don't go to the barber to make friends or be polite; the only reason I'm there is because he wants my money, and the only reason he's there is because I want my hair cut. The cell phone is irrelevant IMO.
Now, if you guys go to the same barber all the time and develop a personal relationship with that person over time, then yes, I could imagine talking on the cell phone as possibly being rude. I personally don't always go to the same barber, and I don't really chat with whoever's cutting my hair, so he probably doesn't care whether I'm on my phone or not.

To some of the people saying it affects their time to get the haircut done, sometimes I wish it did!! A lot of these hairdressers try to get the job done as fast as possible to bring in more customers, and it ends up being a rush job. I really think that we should be allowed to assess the final product before paying anything..

You can assess the final job...... if you say anything though.....you'll get scalped...

since i am in the wireless business, the person that cuts my hair understands the need for me to answer. I still don't. I just check to see who is calling everytime it vibrates.
I think it is rude to have someone wait on you, while you are on the phone.
