Guys: What Do You Pay For A Haircut?

$12 for a high n tight. With tip $25. Cool thing is my barber is a 89 year old Korean War combat Marine Vet. Been going to him for years. His shop is like walking back in time with really neat memorabilia spanning decades. Been in the same location since 1957. I always tell him I'll see ya in a few weeks and he responds with "Thanks for the warning"! He is quite the character and a great man.
 
Lockeroom Haircuts, $24 plus a $10 tip. All all the beer, soda, or waters you want.

Now *THAT* I would pay for.
 
$24 or $26 (don't remember) plus a $10 cash tip while I was in NoVa. A vietnamese guy who I'd just show up and he knew what to do.

I haven't gotten a hair cut in a year or 14 months. Got mad flow going on. :D Really, looks like the Toecutter right now.
 
I got so fed up with paying for shit haircuts that I haven't cut it since 2018. trim it every once in a while at home with some scissors.
 
I go to a Puerto Rican Barber shop. It’s $50 a cut for what I get plus tip but it’s an hour long and amazing. I get hot towels. I get cold towels. I get steam. I get fully shaved and a high skin fade.
 
Just South of Knoxville, TN. Local barber shop in Athens, TN, with a bunch of Hispanic dudes who know what they are doing. $25 for a cut, $35 if you get your beard lined up. I toss them $40 or $50, depending on what I need that month. It's a little pricey, but they do a good job and work six days a week, so I don't mind too much.
 
I’ve been cutting my own Hair since 8 th Grade . I have Curley hair so it easier to cut that Straight hair . Secret is to cut a little at a time over a few days.. however , I haven’t cut it in about a Year and it’s past my Shoulders. I figured I’d let it go wild while I still have hair one last time
 
Since my chemo back in 1991, my hair has been pretty much gone. I’ve been using the same clippers or same electric head shaver for years and years. Over the years, each cut has probably cost me about $.02.
 
On my third set of Wahls since ‘89-ish. So, less than 50 bucks over thirty something years……..yikes closer to forty now that I’m thinking about it :eek::D
 
Nothing, since like 2001. In college a few of my boys taught me how to do actual fades (not just shaving it one size) pretty well and after learning from them, its been a wrap ever since. I got actually really good at it haha. My wife's a stylist and I never even ask her to touch it, but that would also be free I guess. At first she was weirdly taken aback by me not asking/needing her to do it when we first started dating, but my reasoning was I'm already good at it and something about asking a person to do their work when they come home after a long day of work always seems weird to me, so here we are.

I use the 1/8th, 1/4th, 3/8th, and 1/2 Wahl guards and blend between each, then scissors up top.
 
ATL barbers are expensive for what I need. Old dude is nice so I tip him but ends up being $50 or so for a few minutes. I got my dick head grandfather's hair and will eventually have the cul-de-sac. Thinking about just buzzing it from now on because that's pretty much all the barber does these days.
 
Last time I paid for a haircut was back in the 90’s and it was under 20$ with tip and she used to give the best head and neck massage with the shampoo!
