How much for a haircut?

[mustang1]

£5 plus tip. And the great thing is they just shut up and cut my hair rather than dribble on about some useless smalltalk that I don't give a crap about.

 

[Smurfy]

Eight quid, but I'm considering a different place that I saw charging four quid.

I bought a pair of clippers about 5 years ago for £20 and used them at least twice a week since then.

Same here.

.....local barber charges 70 baht - about 1.5 quid. Last couple of years been using Wahl super taper clippers, wife does a good job with those on a number one setting.

I mean - 70 baht - that's daylight robbery...........

 

[Fnaar]

I pay 7 or 8 quid, and they have a loyalty card, so every 5th cut is half price, and every 10th is free. I get it cut about every 5 weeks.

Wife does mine. free. but i have to look after her bike. Swings and roundabouts.

Does your wife own a funfair too

 

[Levo-Lon]

Wife buzzes mine with the clippers..

I'm freemans as I just clipper it every few weeks and have done for years.

N junior goes to a unisex salon in Glossop that only charges £6.50 for a dry cut. Trouble is I have to go with him to supervise the cut he gets after he came back with some horrific undercut Peaky Blinders type thing, necessitating a return to them to get it sorted out

When I was a boy I used to go to a barber in Carnforth, one of those where you sat on a bench placed on the arms of the barber's chair. 13p per hair cut and a penny back if I was good

 

[tyred]

€4. Mind you, in VFM terms it's pretty poor value nowadays it only takes a few seconds - short back and sides, I don't have a top any more

 

[Pale Rider]

Me £0, I use clippers. The wifes is around £100 once a month or so

A hundred a month?

On a ruddy hair do?

That's nearly a mortgage repayment up here.

£8 - £15 depending on if it's a local one in Maidstone, or the last one I went to in Borough. Although I also have clippers and for the last year or so it's been a 2 all over for the head and a 1 all over for the beard so it's hardly a hardship to just do it at home. I've mostly been using barbers because the clippers got old and a pain to use (often they'd just comb rather than cut) but I've a new one in a bag at home so that should sort that. Sometimes if I'm out with time to burn and I've forgotten to cut it for a while I'll just nip in a barbers anyway.

Beard is between £1.50 and £2.50.

 

[twentysix by twentyfive]

£6 - £10 depending on whether I get the trainee or the experienced one.

I hate going for a haircut. So I always end up with it getting quite bushy and long.

 

[mcshroom]

£8-10 here depanding on which one I go to.

Most of the time I use clippers though as it's more convenient.

And your ears in a bag
