re: Tipping for a men’s haircut

Yeah I can’t stand that preset amount bullshite. I’m tipping $5 no matter what. The haircut itself costs like $20, only takes them 15-20 mins, and it’s a pretty darn simple haircut.
I can’t help but laugh when the person cutting my hair (and does an average job) is also trying to get me to spend $20 more on product while I’m there. I get that’s their hustle to make as much as they can per haircut, but I had one annoyingly gay (exaggerated lisp and feminine mannerisms) dude cutting my hair, and was basically stabbing the trimmers into my head and not paying any attention to detail as he was cutting with scissors try to get me to buy a special hairbrush for cowlicks and some other products on the shelf he said I definitely needed. Told him no half a dozen times to all that crap before checkout, so he hands me about 5 “business cards” to give out to friends. Took the cards, tipped him $5 then threw the cards away in the garbage can on the way out.

Same here, charges 12, give 20

My barber’s price on his website says $35 for haircut and beard trim (razor cheeks and neck). But I once asked him how much it was and he told me $25. I give him $40, so I’m either tipping him $15 or $5, but I also get “free” whisky while there.

My barber charges $16.00 and I give him $30.
He gives me a great haircut and he meets me at his shop at 6:30am (it opens at 8am normally) so I can get a haircut on the way to work.

$30 haircut. I usually tip 15 or 20% with my card or $5 if I’m using cash

I give them the same tip every time. "Get a real job"

I've always paid $25 regardless of the price of the cut. Typically works out to an $11-13 tip

Poor isn’t a good look

Nothing is a good look on you

I am very bald and very glad that I do not have to worry about this type of nonsense. I often forget that other men actually have to make arrangements to get their hair cut.

35 dollar hair cut. 10 dollar tip. My barber does a great job and takes his time to get it right.

Sorry to sidetrack but how do you tip at Topgolf? They suggest tipping on the entire bill including golf ,food & drinks. I only tip on the food and drinks that were served.

I haven't had a haircut in over a year, but my last one, $10
Posted on 1/25/20 at 12:49 pm to Old Sarge
My haircut is $15, but I give the guy $20. Takes him all of 10 minutes to cut my hair. Way more generous than I need to be.

My haircut is $12.50. I give my barber a $20 bill. Around Christmas I tip him fifty to sixty dollars.

I’ve mostly been cutting my own hair since college. I’ve gotten so good at it that I bet I could be a barber.
I can fade like a pro.
But on the random occasions when I do go to a barber shop, I also tip $5.

When I take my son it is 7$ at the barbershop I give the guy a 10$ and he’s good. I myself cut my own and I don’t tip myself but I do drink a beer or two while I’m cutting it.

I don't understand the tipping everyone one fad we are in these days.
