So ive been contemplating my haircut i got a week or two ago. Im very socially phobic so going out to get a haircut is a big deal. The ex used to cut my hair a lot even just so i could get out of it

But thats not an option so i had to go to a place cause i didnt trust cutting my own hair and it was getting way too long. I figured 2pm on a tuesday was as dead as it was going to get.
So im at the place and its going good. No one else is waiting and only two other people getting a haircut. Great! So i get called and seated and all that. They always like to talk. I suppose most customers appreciate conversation. So "Where do you work" comes first. My answer is "Uhh im not working at the moment". At the moment or any other moment for the last 4 years. Least i knew not to add the last part in. "Do you hang out with friends all day then?" to which i only responded "No". It got quiet after that haha go figure and eventually we talked about the news and movies or something less humiliating. My question is next time i need a haircut im not going to want to go so i need a plan to calm myself. Would it be ok if i lied ya think? Just made up some job. Just so i wouldnt feel like i had loser written on my forehead. Or what would have been a better way of dealing with that? I could feel myself blushing and it made me wanna just get up and run right in the middle of it. It sounds dumb ive been thinking about this for week or two but its just how i am when i feel i emberassed myself.
