This may or may not be really useful information: I currently appear as a
somewhat butch female, and Laurelhurst Barbershop, despite being a "man's
man barbershop" sort of place, had no problem with my request for a man's
haircut and offered great, respectful & easygoing service. Just going
on the neighborhood and their attitudes, I'd guess they would react well
to someone mid-hormone-transition, but I can't say personally.
Oklahoma City, Oklahoma USA:
Don's Cut & Style
Stylist: Wally Dawkins
1925 NW 39th Street (In the Gay district)
Oklahoma City, OK 73118

Type of Business: Hair Salon
Details from Nick: Wally has cut my hair off and on for many years. Now that I shave my own head, he's cutting my mother and friend hair. He's an openly gay man. He has even given me my T injection one time several years back when I was in a pinch.
Seattle, Washington USA:
Hair Guy Lancer, at Pandemos Salon,
909 E. Pike St.
Seattle, WA 98102
Business Cell: 206.551.2859
Lancers links! http://www.yourhairguy.com/ & Blog http://hair_guy_lancer.livejournal.com/
Type of Business: Hair Salon
Details: Lancer does his magic at his own really cool and friendly salon
in Seattle.
Other: A client wrote: After nearly 2 post-T years of great stress about
my hair and usually unsatisfying cuts because I had no idea how to ask for what
I wanted, and didn't want to out myself by explaining why I'm so new to the
whole men's haircut deal, I found Lancer: an FTM early on his physical pathway
of transition. I emailed him and explained my situation and set up an
appointment. Now I look forward to, and treasure my haircut appointments because
I'm completely comfortable, and especially because Lancer gives me really
awesome cuts! I'm able to trust his judgment and let him have at it, and I go
away feeling and looking great.
Why he should become your stylist: Lancer has The Touch and he loves what
he does which is probably why he's been doing it for over 14 years! He is also
friendly and personable. I usually hate the small talk that sometimes happens
during a haircut but I genuinely enjoy talking and laughing with Lancer.
