How much do you pay for a haircut?

Post Reply New Topic

I’m curious, how much does it differ from place to place?

I've been giving myself haircuts for over twenty years.

Same here since the last hatchet job I had at the hairdressers

No more than 2 USD equivalent.
In the Philippines.

It's just the haircut.
Not the styling and anymore than that.

crew cut
2 dollar in china

Yeah that's good

I reckon it'd be about 30 squid at my local salon these days

It used to be £37 for me but it seemed to have jumped up to £41 in the last year or so.

My last paid haircut was in 2018. Since then I've just been trimming off the split ends.
My old one retired and I had one of the worst conversations ever with the new one. It was like we were on different planets.

I decided it was too much work to find someone else to cut my hair.
I've learned to keep it out of zippers.

I stick my head in the freezer for a wile and then snap the ends off.

$50 ish. I paid $40 ish for the last decade & thought it was time for an increase. I'm one of a handful of clients she'll still see, & I drive 40 mins for the cut. She listens well & gave me a cut I'm so thrilled with that I keep going back. (I've tried a couple people closer, but no one seems to be able to even come close to how well she handles my hair. & they always want to try different ways that just don't work.) It's usually only two to three times per year, anyway.

I used to spend around $20/$30 pre-covid at different malls. I just got a basic haircut which was mostly done with a a razor. After covid my girlfriend bought a razor & started cutting my hair for free. I was mostly just going to the mall to get a haircut a couple times a year. Cass cutting my hair at home is a lot cheaper & more convenient. The job isn't quite as good but I've lost a bit of hair over the last 18 years due to male-pattern baldness(I'm doing some things to try & stop/slow it) & I started wearing a hat most anytime I go outside after moving to Vermont 14 years ago so I'm not expecting a perfect haircut job nor majorly care. Cass worries about how well she does it a lot more than I do.

I used to live in one small city and went to a cowgirl who did great haircuts.

Even better, she also sold tamales. When she had tamales for sale, you could count on her taking at least a couple of breaks in your haircut to deal with tamale customers.

Along with the tamale track on the edge of town two or three times a week, they were pretty much in competition for the best tamales in town.

Around 19 quid. The hairdresser I went to before that was charging me about 45 quid. So I go to the cheaper place.

Still a good haircut!

I remember the first time I went to a barber shop for a haircut.

I was terrified.

The downtown barber shop I walk past a lot charges $15. It's a regular old barber shop with one barber and one chair.
