re: How much do you pay for a haircut?

$15 and I hand him a $20 bill. He’s 65 years old and has cut my hair for 30 years.

$20 plus tip

The trick is all these punk wannabes try and just use clippers. That's because they suck with the scissors.

This… mine doesn’t use clippers at all.

And no intention of stopping. Add in mani/pedis and I am pretty expensive to maintain.

Cause "I'm worth it!"

$10.00 plus






















$10.00 and $5.00 tip

Bracing for downvotes.

$30. No tip.

Context…I’ve been going to this guy for ~25 yrs. He used to work for a bigger barbershop and then went out on his own and I kept going to him. When he was with the bigger barbershop, I’d tip $3-4. Now, it’s just him—solo shop, all the money goes to him. He used to charge high teens and I’d tip to make it an even $20. He would increase his price by a dollar or so every year or two. When he got to $20, I’d tip to make it an even $25 just to make it easy. Once he got over $25, I stopped tipping and he’s now at $30. I gladly pay it though. Good guy, MAGA as hell.

My thinking is this. All the money goes to him, so is it necessary to tip? Also, I’m gonna go to him until he retires and I’ll pay whatever he charges. And he knows this. If he charged $40, I’d pay it. So I feel like, if he wants $40 to cut my hair, he’d charge $40 and I’d pay the $40. So why tip?

$30 + tip

I used to also get a shoe shine, but the shine man died, and it doesn’t look like there will be a replacement hired.

For all you shoe shine men, your industry is going away, so start training in another skill.

Been cutting my own hair for almost 20
Years

$35 plus tip but I don’t go that often.

My teenager is paying $30 and goes every 3wks. Annoying.
