That's like how gardening teaches you to wait.

From a barber blog I check sometimes, they broke down how layering isn't just about cutting fast. It's more about the angle you hold the scissors and how you section the hair. Like, some methods use a lot of point cutting to blend, which takes time but looks more natural. Speed comes with practice, but messing up the technique gives you choppy layers.

My buddy Sam had this ancient stove that took half an hour just to get water hot. He'd always miss the sunrise because he was stuck waiting for his coffee. Last trip he brought a new one that boiled in under three minutes. He said it was weird having his drink ready before he even got his chair set up. Completely changed his whole morning vibe.
