[attr="class","illie i"]all they have to do is cut hair, right? it can't be that hard...

yes, it can. ;u;

atrox and hair do not get along apparently. each use of slash is wrong. too much power, too much of an angle. eventually, one of the stylists simply guides the garchomp through a haircut. this one turns out decent at least. the previous ones? yeah, they cried a little...

one good cut makes him prideful. the next one? not so much.

the stylist shakes her head and lets him wander back to the other pokemon. another one will step up for their turn and then, eventually, it'll be his time to shine again.

hopefully he learns to actually give a haircut while he waits. otherwise, his trainer will be mortified to know her garchomp ruined the confidence of citizens today.

She was getting way too used to this nonsense use of her talents.

She stared at the nervous little girl at the seat with her scythes poised, very carefully lining up her shot, so to speak. Usually, she would be aiming for the neck, but there was an exception to every rule, and cute children (like ) were Kama's.

Just don't tell anyone. Ever.

With a sudden motion, her arms blurred, making the little girl flinch as wind whipped past.

And then the tips of her hairs fell to the floor, successfully evened.

A smile broke out at the girl's lips, and Kama unconsciously mirrored it.

A job well done.

Sugar was just as much of a showboat as her trainer could be.

The Meowth was on her hind legs, a hard balance since she normally walked on all fours, with a cute apron tied around her middle. It was cream and had little pink straps and pink flowers, meant more for a child to wear than a little pokemon. Sugar didn't care, though; she just wanted to be as cute as she knew she could be.

Her claws were sharp when a skeptical woman was sat down in front of her. She didn't give her time to question, Slashes flying in the air as her paws danced. The woman's haircut came out perfect! In a sense. It was an exact replica of her trainer's hairstyle, which admittedly was pretty ugly; how on each he managed to have a bowl cut and a mullet at the same time defied many gods.

The woman was horrified but Sugar was more than pleased. She eagerly awaited her next customer.

This kind of job was not… Up Lacerta’s alley. At all. [break][break]

Standing quietly near the back of the salon, the aloof and sombre Scizor watches as the other pokemon flutter around, gracefully snipping at hair with enthusiasm. She’s far more interested in cutting through foes, rather than a scraggly mop atop a rambunctious child’s head and it shows. Eyes narrowed and tips of her pincers scraping together in a quiet, agitated grind. [break][break]

Unfortunately, if she wants to help her trainer put some money in the bank, she’s going to have to snip at least one person’s hair today…
[break][break]
She takes up position behind a girl with hair that is atrociously too long, slipping into a battle stance, one claw drawn back and bug knees bent. Lacerta’s pincer turns silver, readying a SLASH… Then the light fades. Locks tumbling in a straight slice before the child’s eyes, revealing a chin length bob in the wake of an impossible to follow blow; as fast as a samurai unsheathing their katana in an action movie. [break][break]

Lacerta blinks, satisfied in her work.

Grievous watched as another claw full of hair fell to the floor. He folded his arms while his latest customer examined her new hairdo, seemingly very pleased. She thanked the blaziken graciously before departing. Another happy customer.

Grievous would never have guessed that he was a talented stylist, he had never cut a human's hair before and yet it seemed to come so naturally. Perhaps the years of slicing through organic matter had turned out to be great practice for cutting hair, who knew.

He also thought that his Crush Claw would be too strong to cut something as delicate as hair. It was all in the precision though, and Grievous was nothing if not precise. If Oscar ever retired him, perhaps Grievous could get a full time job cutting hair. That sounded like a fine way to spend his twilight years. Another human sat in Grievous's chair, and he happily got back to work.

Russel didn’t think he’d be any good at cutting other trainers hair. It surprised him that most of the trainers were very eager to get their hair snipped by a braviary in the first place. He turned his head to see a rather long line of smiling patrons awaiting for their hair to be cut. The bird emitted a small sigh, returning his attention back onto the customer that sat in the chair in front of him. Swiftly he used his talon to crush claw strands of brown hair falling onto the floor below. It was a unusual job but Russel was determined to do well if it meant that his trainer would get benefits.
He flapped a wing to signal for the next trainer to sit down onto the chair.

Azul was a questionable choice for a job like this. The Kabutops was accurate but such large scythes were clumsy when it came to small detail. Regardless, the pokemon’s SLASH was said to be a useful tool for this particular job. True to her training, Azul would try her best to perform to acceptable standards.

Sharpness was an ally in precision cutting. So Azul rubbed her lethal scythes against each other as she approached the trainer waiting their turn. The poor woman’s eyes were wide in terror upon seeing her ‘barber’. The intimidating Kabutops did her best to move slowly. She resisted the urge to slice wildly as she would in battle. Instead, she carefully lifted hair and passed the sharp edge of the blade along a precise, invisible line.

It may have taken her longer than necessary, but she was satisfied with her handy work. She was pleasantly surprised at how accurate she was able to cut this fine hair.

Using Air Slash with a Charizard to give haircuts was certainly a different thing, but it would be good training. Being able to do precision cuts exactly the way they wanted would have a variety of uses. It had been a little rough at first, considering Fawkes was large even by Charizard standards. But luckily the first guy wanted a buzz cut anyway. Thank Arceus for that one.

Others wanted more complicated patterns. But with a little more practice under their belt, Air Slash was able to be used more accurately, making more complicated cuts without harming the people involved. They were nervous at first, and quite frankly so was Josh. But he was giving it the best he could, and his nerves began to fade the more that they cut. And the more they cut, the easier it got to make precious those precision cuts.

This would definitely be useful on the field.
