* New Englanders (stereotypically): Often perceived as having more traditional, simple, or shorter hairstyles. These might be quicker and easier cuts for a barber.
* Texans (stereotypically): Often associated with bigger hair, more elaborate styles, or a greater attention to detail in their grooming. This could translate to a longer, more demanding haircut appointment.
Therefore, the barber might prefer two potentially quicker and easier New England haircuts over one potentially longer and more complex Texan haircut.
