Fellas, how much do you spend on a hair cut?

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.

 

Head out to Portslade 76, Annas and scissor sisters are £8. Ahhh... if only they were scissor sisters.. I'd probably tip 'em.

£7, "Yousef the Barber" in Southsea. No hassel, no chit chat. Bish bash bosh.

 

Lol that's where I take my kids. One of them had his hair cut there yesterday actually. My last cut was in the Green Room in Albert Road, think it's about £15 including a wash and a head/neck/shoulder massage.

How badly can you fck up a grade 1? £7 a month or £30 on some clippers. I'd do it myself I think.

 

I pay a tenner or so. Place near work said it was about £70! Obviously avoided that, but curious as to how different it would look. I'd be happy to spend £20-30 if I didn't have rubbish hair.

 

I promise you, my missus can.

My hairdressers has put the price up from £8 to £10, and now the hairdressers get the full £10, as I used to give the £2 as a tip!!

 

I never tip the barber. It is his shop so why should I tip him? Be like walking into a corner shop for a bag of crisps - price 60p - and giving him £1 and telling him to keep the change.

Not really is it. It is a service, along the lines massage/spa, and catering services. The people who cut my hair do not won the business, and get paid peanuts, and they give me a service so I tip them, or did before the price went up!

My point is that if the bloke who cuts your hair also owns the shop why tip him? If the price he want is written on the price list then just give him that. And anyway, isn't the checkout girl at the co-op also providing me with a service? I'm not going to chuck her a quid when I leave am I? And the worst thing is being made to feel guilty when not tipping cabbies. When I come back from the shops laden with bags and he helps me to the door with them then I tip for going above-and-beyond. If he just sits there then he gets whats on the meter. And i will wait until he digs out the 20p change back too.
