 Kind of interesting, that it directs to barber and then discusses male
 barbers and men's haircutting culture.

 Surely I can't be the only person who finds this odd...

 Did you take a look at the article history? Would you prefer the last
 pre-merger version
 (http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Hairdresseroldid=238820338)
 over a redirect to a proper article about the same subject?

Yes, it is as simple as writing a good article.

Hopefully that'll change (I think?)

I encourage everyone to improve on it and watch the super awesome video I
just added from the Netherlands Institute for Sound and Vision. They sure
don't do hair like they used to
