Who Cut The Crews Hair?

Standard Starfleet issue.
On all of the newer starships (and some of the old ones), there are organic waste slurries, where all of the waste is recycled into energy. This energy is used in many different things, but mainly the replicators. Boots, uniforms, food, phasers, medical supplies etc. are all created using the recycled bio-waste.
That's not pizza you're eating!
Reminds me of Charlton Heston's famous line from the end of "Soylent Green". Just substitute "poop" for "people".

After watching the first season of TNG, I'm pretty sure Roddenberry intended for humanity to have evolved past the point of needing to poop by the 24th century.
Some of us want to be bald, and like their appearance better that way.
Hell, if I could get some kind of permanent hair removal treatment on my head (the TOP, anyway; I need the goatee, to rock the Ming the Merciless look
) which would obviate the need to ever shave it again, I'd do it.
If the ship only had one barber, then that must be the person with the worst haircut.
That might make it Ensign Marissa Davidson:
(Or they are bald, another vote for Chell).

Tuvok.
He would see the logic in boosting staff morale, and he would be very precise.

Janeway had long hair in the very first episode

I'd forgotten about this. What made you think to post her?
I was just trying to remember who had bad hair days on the show and remembered her. The hair just spoke for itself in the thread.
Of course, it's hard to top Neelix for bad hair.
YES
NO

HA! Who wore it better? The chick with the rose tattoo!

I'm so glad I read on as my first thought was Friar Tuck rather than Ming the Merciless.
I think there IS a device for hair cutting and styling. It would be like a Replicator for hair, programmed with different styles. It's probably something in the bathrooms one sticks their head into then tells it what to do.
Having a crew member whose prime function was to cut and style hair would be seen as an unnecessary luxury on a ship with a small crew such as Voyager.
Enterprise D had a live barber because it was a large ship with a large crew that carried families, and was the flagship of the Federation. It doesn't mean that a person was required for this function or that it couldn't be done by technological means.
