How much do you pay?
How much do you think is reasonable?
I pay £10 for a £15 haircut (the hairdresser and I have an 'arrangement' :P )

I'd hate to be with you when you're on your own.
Around £50. But I have long hair and I get a haircut every 6 months or so :o
£9 if I go to the mangy barbers I like. Or £20 if I "treat myself" at the nice gym/health club I go to. Both are good, but the miserable old blokes are excellent in the first - I feel more and more at home there as I get older...
£8-£9 but hand over a tenner as a tip.
Not a really poncy hairdresser sort of place but a cut above (sorry) a backstreet barber.
Unfortunately I'm friends with my local hairdresser - unfortunately 'cos her cuts are adequate but I feel obliged. :?
£14 but he's really good. Appointment only.
£7.50 credit crunch special at a nearby old-school barbers....a snip(!) for Central London.
No consultation about style as they only do one....and when he thinks you're not looking the barber takes a quick swig of Special Brew from a brown paper bag. Because I'm worth it!!
In fairness because they only do one style they're actually pretty good at it.
£55 a pop... which given the rate of hairloss, is rapidly approaching a pound a hair! - a good cut does make a difference if you're thinner up top though. I figure I'll be on the clippers at home soon enough, so my outlay will balance out over a life-time compared to thicker-maned gentlemen.

I know people do tend to tip barbers generously...I reluctantly hand over a quid or two..and even then, not always. Am I stingy? Why is it customary to tip hair people generously...just wondering. It's something I've always heard of. I think there's even some etiquette to it, especially with women's hairdressing.
S'ppse I should feel lucky I've got some hair to cut :lol:
EDIT :
I can't believe how much women pay to get a hair cut. I have to bite my tongue every time my other half get's it done :? :shock:

A tenner as a tip !!?? :shock:
No, no - hand over a tenner and say keep the change. :!: :wink:
I view paying for a haircut like all those annoying but necessary things such as road tax, car insurance, tyres, TV licence.
If I have to get a cut, well at least I want some perks - it's the only time you can get eye level with a pair of pert boobs and a quick bump if you're lucky :shock: :D
£8 in a Bristol ghetto - think its the cheapest here so far. But the sinks on the wall are all wonky and cheap product - but he's good and certainly ex value for money.
A tenner but she is really good and frankly I'd pay twice that as nobody has ever made my hair look less bad.
Grade two and a trim on top about once every six weeks.

:) And trying not to look directly at them and into the mirror instead when she's standing directly in front of/over you....in case she catches you staring.
Oh..and I get what you mean now with the tenner...you're a stinge like me. :D
£22 every 3 weeks
Nothing, I cut my own hair with my hair clippers, I haven't been to the barbers for years :)
Same here but she,s not an hairdresser :shock:
Nothing.
My wife does mine but I have to give her a tip. :twisted:
Cheers,
Neil.
£95 for both mine & the wife evey 6 weeks.
Luckily he comes to us and that price includes a full cut,colour & style for the wife and a proper haircut and eyebrow tidy for moi!
He's a proper stylist and decided to work as a mobile hairderesser when his bosses at the local salon got a bit sh$tty with ghim when he announced his partner didsn't want him to work weekends any more!
Oh, and that includes the tip (along with lots of gay celebrity gossip)
since my wife scalped me when she forgot to put the number 2 guard on my hair trimmers I now visit a proper old school barber shop every fornight for a number 2 all over, for the cost of £8.
£5
Used to pay about £20 but then went to a new salon (just over the road) which susequently closed down (£12) and now go around to the girl who had the salon's house (£5).
And a good job she does if I don't say so myself.
£10, he does a good job, would happily pay double.
£7 in the Victorian Arcade - nice ladies too 8)
£8 if you go to the other place (bit pricey :lol: )
I'm kind of shocked at some of the prices given the location of some of you chaps .... !!
I pay £8 (well, a tenner and keep the change) at my local old school barbershop and go every three weeks.
35 euros and usually cut every 4-5 weeks
Nothing :)
£9 , hand over a tenner, i really should go somewhere more upmarket but hey
Andy
Free because I let my hairdresser next door park in my rear :D
Rod
£12, £15 with tip. I go whenever it gets to tramp looking.
Me too, maybe I should pay my self a tenner every 3 weeks and start a whisky fund :drunken:
£9 and hand over a tenner here too :)
Sick squid for a #2 all over. Quick and cheap.
£9 with a £2 tip. A bargain for London.
About £15 ($25) + tip.
£6 - never leave a tip unless it's Christmas.
bah humbug
Same here
Another tenner with the tip: and I thought that was too much. It seems not, looking at what some people pay.
£7 - No. 3 on top, No. 2 on the sides and tidy the back and eyebrows please about every 6 weeks or so.
I used to let the (now ex) wife do it but the number of arguments generated 9she left the guard off once) means that I'm not going to risk it with the fiance.
Cheers,
Snap :D
Some folk will do anything for a free haircut.
£38
Got some clippers a few years back and do my own.
Snap :D
same hairdresser? :wink:
Zero - DIY every week - including trimming the lawn and hedges :D
Cost of rechargeable clippers about £18.
Previously I used to pay £8 - so £10 with a tip - every 2-3 weeks :shock:
Crazy so DIY is the answer plus now I look like Jason Statham/Bruce Willis/Heston Blumenthal or that fat bloke out of Master Chef.
Andy
Whoever does not know how to hit the nail on the head should be asked not to hit it at all.
Friedrich Nietzsche
£9, £1 tip. Plenty of watch mags to read and a 10 minute chat about our latest acquisitions (his, yesterday, was a Vacheron pocket watch). He's a joy to visit and always has something worth complimenting on his wrist.
£7 and I resent that.
"Bite my shiny metal ass."
- Bender Bending Rodríguez
Two options. Use the #2 with the clippers. Free
When my hair's a bit longer (like now) and needs more skill than my wife or I have with the clippers, then I go to my old favourite who I've been going to for years in Brighton. He charges £9 and gets a tenner.
About €35 every month
This young lady calls every 6 weeks to cut mine and my wife's hair at a fiver each. She's been cutting ours for years and is a good friend, she gets regular tips.
Eddie
Whole chunks of my life come under the heading "it seemed like a good idea at the time".
£6 pensioners rates, and does a good job searching for something to cut. :D
