1976_Child Posted 22 December, 2011 Posted 22 December, 2011 How much do you spend on a hair cut, and how often? My barber just put his price up (for a basic cut, no wash) from £10 to £12. I'm beginning to think I should look elsewhere. I can remember when one could get a hair cut for a fiver. How times change.
LA77 Posted 22 December, 2011 Posted 22 December, 2011 8:50 and I just give them a tenner. The barbers I use is decked out in Saints colours in Bitterne
Thorpe-le-Saint Posted 22 December, 2011 Posted 22 December, 2011 £25 including tip...then again, I'm a tart.
View From The Top Posted 22 December, 2011 Posted 22 December, 2011 Nowt, the Doris is a trained hairdresser. Could argue that I've been paying for 20 years.
LA77 Posted 22 December, 2011 Posted 22 December, 2011 £25 including tip...then again, I'm a tart. do you have one of them parrot type haircuts like Beattie used to have?
LA77 Posted 22 December, 2011 Posted 22 December, 2011 £9.50 did you give them a tenner? or did you collect the change? If they mess up the burns they don't get paid at all from me
DG Posted 22 December, 2011 Posted 22 December, 2011 They get to keep their 50p tip, generous i know!
mack rill Posted 22 December, 2011 Posted 22 December, 2011 My last haircut cost me £9. wot tide gone out son?
norwaysaint Posted 22 December, 2011 Posted 22 December, 2011 A horrific amount, it's probably the most shocking price difference between Norway and Britain and yes, I include the beer in that. A 15 pound haircut IS possible here, but they are those dodgy back street places with faded, sun bleached pictures of men with 70s haircuts in the window. They will listen to what you want, then give you the same haircut they give everyone. If you go anywhere half decent you will pay between 30 and 40 quid in Norway.

I hope you get a decent haircut for that. Any particular reason for the price?
Thedelldays Posted 22 December, 2011 Posted 22 December, 2011 Wow, that's a lot! I hope you get a decent haircut for that. Any particular reason for the price? its norway
LA77 Posted 22 December, 2011 Posted 22 December, 2011 I'd tell them to poke it. There's norway I'd pay that
Colinjb Posted 22 December, 2011 Posted 22 December, 2011 £9, straight in, straight out, no awkward bullsh*t chit-chat.
Thedelldays Posted 22 December, 2011 Posted 22 December, 2011 there was *****il about 6 months ago) a hairdressers outside one of the gates to the navy base in plymouth that had topless women cutting your hair...
LA77 Posted 22 December, 2011 Posted 22 December, 2011 £9, straight in, straight out, no awkward bullsh*t chit-chat. I'm not surprised if your head is in Coventry, and the rest of you is in Hereford/St Mary's
dubai_phil Posted 22 December, 2011 Posted 22 December, 2011 40 Dirhams. (About 7 quid) Could spend 30 if I drove 500 metres up the road.
Colinjb Posted 22 December, 2011 Posted 22 December, 2011 I'm not surprised if your head is in Coventry, and the rest of you is in Hereford/St Mary's Good point! I need to change that.
rpb Posted 22 December, 2011 Posted 22 December, 2011 40 Dirhams. (About 7 quid) Could spend 30 if I drove 500 metres up the road. Do you get a head slap with that? My last professional hair cut was 2/6d...
Saintandy666 Posted 22 December, 2011 Posted 22 December, 2011 £9, straight in, straight out, no awkward bullsh*t chit-chat. I hate small talk with the hairdressers!
dubai_phil Posted 22 December, 2011 Posted 22 December, 2011 Do you get a head slap with that? My last professional hair cut was 2/6d... IF you ask they have these vibrator things that must have been built in the 50's that they strap on their hands and give you a scalp massage. It was fine until I hit late 40's and then all my fillings started to fall out when they did it. Worse I have never been able to find one in a shop for the GF
Gingeletiss Posted 22 December, 2011 Posted 22 December, 2011 Nothing...grade 2 all over, wife does it.
latter day saint Posted 22 December, 2011 Posted 22 December, 2011 I hate small talk with the hairdressers! that surprises me after reading the Alan Hansen thread ! i do it myself, grade 1 all over. only costs me a new set of clippers every few years.
Saint Luke Posted 22 December, 2011 Posted 22 December, 2011 £0.00 - the wife or daughter with the clippers - baaaa!
Saintandy666 Posted 22 December, 2011 Posted 22 December, 2011 that surprises me after reading the Alan Hansen thread ! i do it myself, grade 1 all over. only costs me a new set of clippers every few years. Why does it surprise?! Na, I just think it is so awkward... but hey, each to their own!
latter day saint Posted 22 December, 2011 Posted 22 December, 2011 Why does it surprise?! Na, I just think it is so awkward... but hey, each to their own! Captive audience i never liked the small talk either.also hated waiting around,usually with people rustling papers in your face & farting
Saintandy666 Posted 22 December, 2011 Posted 22 December, 2011 Captive audience i never liked the small talk either.also hated waiting around,usually with people rustling papers in your face & farting Ahaha, here is where I spout my ****
Minsk Posted 22 December, 2011 Posted 22 December, 2011 I pay 25k (in Belarus roubles) which = just under £2.00.
pap Posted 22 December, 2011 Posted 22 December, 2011 Doesn't come around too often for me. I get it cut short every few years, and grow it the rest of the time, despite many non-legally binding commitments to my missus not to do so. She is a wily one, though - I believe she is beginning to see through my plans. Eventually, she gets her best mate around to shear me, and it happens for free.
Weston Super Saint Posted 22 December, 2011 Posted 22 December, 2011 I replace my hair clippers roughly every two years. So, on average about £12.50 a year, or roughly £1 per month for me

It was fine until I hit late 40's and then all my fillings started to fall out when they did it. Worse I have never been able to find one in a shop for the GF Whilst in Dubai, I was asked if I wanted to go for an Indian head slap and haircut, I am now pleased that I refused the offer.
Whitey Grandad Posted 22 December, 2011 Posted 22 December, 2011 £7 or £8. If I want them to cut more than one hair it's a bit dearer.
Colinjb Posted 22 December, 2011 Posted 22 December, 2011 I replace my hair clippers roughly every two years. So, on average about £12.50 a year, or roughly £1 per month for me Nothing worse then cheap clippers. My hair is horribly thick so it can clog a cheaper set. Let me tell you when that happens it F**KING HURTS!!!!
The Majestic Channon Posted 22 December, 2011 Posted 22 December, 2011 25-30 quid here in sweden, it's 20 quid for my 6 year old too, which is why i wait until i'm back in blighty, usually.
dubai_phil Posted 22 December, 2011 Posted 22 December, 2011 Whilst in Dubai, I was asked if I wanted to go for an Indian head slap and haircut, I am now pleased that I refused the offer. Oh, one of THOSE. Yeah good plan missing it
The Majestic Channon Posted 22 December, 2011 Posted 22 December, 2011 £9, straight in, straight out, no awkward bullsh*t chit-chat. You sound like a stroppy prostitute
Super_Saint Posted 22 December, 2011 Posted 22 December, 2011 DIY, don't waste the dollar. Number 2/3 straight through, job done.
Micky Posted 22 December, 2011 Posted 22 December, 2011 6 quid for a sraight haircut, always give the guy a tenner - he always gives me a fiver change. Every other cut I tell him to keep the change. Real complicated over here in NI.
Liquidshokk Posted 22 December, 2011 Posted 22 December, 2011 36 quid... But that's only cos I get a head massage from a fitty included...
Wade Garrett Posted 22 December, 2011 Posted 22 December, 2011 I am as bald as a badgers arse but it still needs cutting round the sides. I pay about £7 for a grade 1 every 4 weeks. My missus used to do it, but I sacked her after she f*cked it up and took a rather unfortunate divot out of it.
hamster Posted 22 December, 2011 Posted 22 December, 2011 A kid that red and white stripe door barbers in ports wood like the plague. Owners a Pompey fan. Flat top every time. I've twice modelled my flat tops for barbers websites, go me. Use b n w wax btw.
BadgerBadger Posted 23 December, 2011 Posted 23 December, 2011 half a dinari when I'm not doing it myself
