Listen to Exodus! He looks like the sort of person who spends a lot on his cool hair which girls love :D
ehehe ^_^;
I do spend some time on it though. The place I go in LA is called Wax Poetic, and I found them through a search of the local goth club forums, because I figure that these people have to be extremely specific.
A haircut there costs $35, but it's not just a haircut, it also gets styled, so you look like a fucking badass for the day, at least. $35, in the grand scheme of things, is not too much.
My other suggestion would be to ask someone who has a solid indie haircut where they got theirs done (ie not somebody who just used to have short hair and let it grow into a mop).
And if you have hair that's pretty straight and coarse (I've seeon one picture, yours may be finer) you might want to head to an area where there are lots of chinese folks and tea houses. I haven't tried this yet, but the guys that work at these places tend to have really cool hair.
I tried going to supercuts once, and I stood up in the middle of the cut, and said OK STOP. Then I left, and had my girlfriend do it. Fuckin hackers.

Places like supercuts are oddly bad since the cultural degradation of the 1990s. Although they are professionally trained hair cutters, they have trouble following the customer's directions and they don't know what the word bisymmetrical means.
Lots of guys go to those places and get messy hair cuts that look stupid. For example Ryan Seacrest from American Idol and On Air. Last time I went to one of those places, I needed to get a regular business hair cut. The guy working there said he had been cutting the trendy messy hair style for so long that he had forgoten how to do a real hair cut.
Sometimes I want an unusual hair cut and need the hair cut done precicely. In this case you I go to a barber shop with a military base near by.
There will be an old man there. He will think the way I want my hair cut is stupid but he will cut it perfectly anyway. His ability comes thanks to his old man power gained from years of cutting GI's hair to military specificity.
There was a hair style I used to have which only 2 hair cutters were able to do perfectly. One was that old man, the other was by chance at a more ordinary hair cut place, I think it was a Philippinesian salon, I believe. Also men are better at cutting hair then women. hehe, in my experiance anyway, maybe 1/5 men did good and 1/40 women.
If I don't need an exact cut and I don't want to drive very far, I still skip supercut type places. I go to a place with lots of Asians working their like CK hair. They are more used to cutting more stylish hair cuts because there Asian customers are more likely to require them. They are more disciplined than the supercuts type places.
So, if you can find an older Asian man who services military officers you should have him cut your hair.
Think happy thoughts.
