Lol Alan.

3. The straight razor shave old fashion style is a very different experience for me. Also, it was awesome when the Dapper Dan's Barbershop Quartet would sing while you were in the chair!

4. I cannot remember all the locations, but certainly there is one in the Photography shop, the Barber Shop and I think the Cablecar Bakeshop if I recall.

5. Get to BBWWS, it is one of the very best things Disney has created anywhere!!!

Lol, I am not sure. I did have a haircut with clippers, but then again, I am bald on top ;-)

I know the one at WDW is more fun. My daughter got her very first haircut there (they were brill with kids) and got a special pair of mouse ears. and my sone had Green Mickey Mouses put into his hair with pixie dust. But they do not do those kinds of haircuts in DLP sadly.

@davewasbaloo

I just find it odd that someone would go to a theme park without having had their hair cut first. I mean, holidays are supposed to be special events, things you make an effort for. If you're planning to go on holiday, you're probably going to get your hair cut before you go, not during your holiday. But maybe there's a certain market, a certain demographic, that go to Disneyland Paris purely to get their hair cut! They're there at 10:00am, but instead of heading to Space Mountain they go straight to Dapper Dan's!

I've avoided seeing Buffalo Bill's Wild West Show because thematically the show doesn't appeal to me. I just don't find Wild West stuff interesting. Plus, I'm not too keen on the idea of large animals being penned up all day, and only being let out to entertain people. Plus, if the show really is so good, I don't want to be distracted by a waiter and food while I'm trying to focus on it.

Some people book into spa sessions and have their nails and hair done in resorts in the Med or Vegas, I don't see this much diffently really. My daughter's first hair cut was a driver for when we timed our trip to WDW. And when I used to make use of the barber shop, it was back in the days when we were there every 6-8 weeks (pre kids). Best time is about 4pm in the summer. Nothing beats a 3 course meal with an apperetif and bottle of wine at either Walt's or the Silver Spur followed by a shave and a hair cut. Fantastic! One of the reasons why Disney is the best (or used to be) is because there were so many layers to the experience.

As for BBWWS, the animals are not locked up all day, they have huge paddocks out by the Ranch. But I can understand the theme not appealing. After all, I am not a huge fan of Fantasyland. so I can totally get that.
