Can relate on hairstylists never doing what you ask. Back in my less passing days I'd show a reference photo of a very clearly manly man and they'd still somehow manage to femme up the cut. Apparently the way they cut sideburns, the way they shape the back of the head towards the bottom, and a bunch of other stuff is heavily gendered. It's ridiculous.
I haven't had a haircut since.... I wanna say 2019. I hated how short it became and as it turned out, not a single interviewer gave a shit how long my hair was so it got cut down to like, ear length, for nothing.
