Notes[]

A human receiving the achievement within Stormwind's barbershop (outdated)
- Changing your hairstyle will complete the achievement
[Shave and a Haircut].
- Prior to patch 10.0.0, each change at the barbershop had a price which increased with each level, adding up if multiple features were changed. Level 1 characters can change hairstyles for free, assuming you skip all the starting quests and go straight to the barber. It ranged from a couple silver for a low-level player to above 10 gold for a max-level player depending on the changes.
- Very few of the hairstyles added in Wrath of the Lich King were actually new. They were taken from and added to different races and genders.
- Prior to Cataclysm the barber in Stormwind was a goblin Sween Neetod who was replaced by Jelinek Sharpshear a gnome.
- At least one member of the Blizzard team is rooting for a specific hairstyle. Bornakk wants mohawks for every race, both male and female.[1] He not only wants mohawks, he wants huge mohawks.
- Prior to Shadowlands Druids changes of hair/skin color changed their bear and cat form color combinations. Moonkin colors were preset and never changed. Post-Shadowlands release, the colors may now be set and saved independently. Legion artifact forms and the
[Fandral's Flamescythe] were added to the barbershop options too.
- When at a barbershop, you automatically wear a
[Barber's Drape].
