Reports have surfaced that President Barack Obama is very loyal to his barber. The President is a man of the common people, the report tells its listeners. He hangs out with regular folks, like his barber for example. The President has been using the same Chicago based barber, who goes by the name Zariff, for the past 17 years.
According to German Public Radio, the President flies Zariff from Chicago to DC for a trim every two weeks.
The president allegedly personally funds these trips.
President Obama obviously also does not care much about the massive carbon footprint his haircuts are leaving on our planet which, we are told, is tipping precariously.

Yep, probably gets scuttle-butt from the 'hood and a couple eight-balls.
My wife is a hairdresser. I haven’t paid for a haircut since 2002. She gives me a GI haircut every two or three weeks. Not a whole lot of work involved for her as I don’t have a whole lot of hair.
I don't know if the article is quoting the youtube since can't play youtube at work....
But the man of the common people doesn't fly his barber in every two weeks for a trim...
I wonder who dropped the dime on Obama on this little elitist perk
I am sure Obama finds a way to write off this expense so he is not really paying or it
I am sure in his mind he deserve such treatment, after all he is the potentate of the USA
Guy is likely trusted more than his Wife
He needs a special barber flown in for that buzzcut he has? Come on! That barber’s got something else Obama wants.
Obama Flies Special Barber To WH Every Two Weeks,wink wink.
A blowtorch would be cheaper.

Sounds like a courier to me.
Barber named Zariff . . . espionage, maybe? Who would suspect the barber . . . besides me. . . .
Lets just say I get my money's worth when I do go to the barber.
I guess I'm lucky, my brother is 5 years younger and finally just shaved his head. ...which is not a bad thing for Texas summers.

Well I have to admit: if I were in BO’s shoes, I’d be very concerned about who my barber is. Probably very few people he can trust that much.
Completely disagree... once money is paid to an individual it is theirs to spend as they please, as ridiculous as this is.
Not that his hair has much style, but why not just shave his head. It’s worked for Hugo Chavez, Nikita Khrushchev...Sinead O’Connor, Britney Spears, Mr. Clean, Homer Simpson and Elmer Fudd.....
Dammit, M55, THAT’s a mental picture I coulda gone my ENTIRE life without having!
Blech. Getting out the long q-tips to clean that image out...
Special barber from Chicago. Obviously specializing in the “fade” cut.
Drug mule?
