Just a general question.
How much do you pay for a haircut? Feel free to add in price points if you get highlights, etc., though I am sure you will get poked at a bit. I pay $28, usually leave a $5 tip, too. (I don't mind, they serve beer/wine there.) And yeah, I get highlights sometimes, and that runs me around $70 with the haircut, too. The guy that cuts me is in a local band, goes to DragonCon in costume sometimes, and is a pretty cool bro.

Besides the years I was in the Marines, I've went to the same barbershop since I was a wee little kid. Nowadays a cut is $12. They were under $10 for years, then they bumped the price up a dollar a year. Once they hit $10, they quit getting a tip.

I used to go to a barber shop near my office and it was like $25 plus I'd give a couple bucks tip. It always annoyed me because I wasn't asking for anything special. I just want a #3 on the sides, and a trim on top. then one day I was in Chinatown for lunch and I saw a barber shop that had a sign that said $9 for a haircut. I figured worst case scenario I shave my head if he does a bad job. Turns out the guy does just as good of a job, and I have to pay a lot less. He doesn't really understand English, but that's ok.

I cut my own, but my wife has hers done and the standard is $20. She is taking our son (32 months) in 15 minutes and they charge $12 for him. I think anything between $10-$15 is reasonable, anything over $20-$25 plus is too high in my opinion. I figure it takes them 20 minutes to do my wifes, and they are making $20. Multiply by 3 and thats $60 an hour theyre making. WAY TOO MUCH! Even if you figure they share the money with the "shop" owner if they arent the owner, I worked in a tattoo studio that was a 50/50 split, so if hair is the same, theyre still making $30 an hour. Thats a ton of cash.

Nothing more than $20.00 which includes tip. The last time I did get my haircut I tried to do it myself and ended up just shaving it all because it was FUBAR.

Supercuts, every other month, $15 bucks + tip
And I think thats too much. The hot sister-in-law of a friend (smoking hot) had her own hair place and I was going to start going there, but she was charging like $25 a hair cut and thats no hot girl is worth that much to cut my hair, lol I just had to find another way to hook up with her, lol
