Shave and a Haircut...How Much?

[Doctor Phibes]

$20 here, plus a 5 dollar tip.

The rest of my family cost considerably more. Last time I mentioned this, one of them said 'yeah, but look at your hair, dad', so now they're paying for their own fucking haircut.

I cut my own hair.

Yeah but what do you pay?

$40 and $10 tips. But the place does shave your neck with a straight razor, and gives a hot towel treatment while rinse out your hair. Plus you can come back between major cuts and get a light trim for $5…

Sounds like a SportsClips I go to. Surprisingly cheap (?) for an “MVP” cut. Includes cut, massage gun, shampoo massage, and hot towels. I think it’s $33 and I usually tip $10-15.

Before that I’d go to Great Clips and I think it was $22 for a cut?

Finally, I do remember when it was $14 or so for a cut like 10 years ago at the Hair Cuttery but times and costs have changed.

Ok finally (for real) my dad went to the same guy for like 40 years. I also had the same person for a while before I left. There’s something nice about going to the same person over the years.

Already a COVID story I forgot. Bought my own supplies to cut my own hair for about 6-9 months. Wasn’t too hard actually but wasn’t too good either.

I cut my own hair too… I started a couple of years before Covid. I cut my son’s hair too.

I think I started because the haircuts in SF were $60. And I didn’t like the few I tried.

15€. He's been my barber since 1962.

He’s gone from 20 to 22 to 25 in the 11 years I’ve been going there.

I usually tip about 10%

Sometimes as much as 25% in more hard-to-reach places.
