What Do the Barbers Charge In Your Area ?
 
There is a retired barber in my community,who has a little shop by his house ,who charges five bucks for a cut but he only opens on wednesdays from about 6 to 12.
I could not make it this wednesday for my annual trim,the other full time barbers in town charge anywhere from 10 to 15 bucks,which I hate to pay that for a trim for no more hair than I have.I'm going to try to make it to my old faithful this wednesday.

What do the barbers charge in your area ? Like anything else haircuts seem to have gone up in price.

$10-$12 + tip, or $20 and up if you go to a salon.

The guy here in town that charges 10 bucks,my father in law says doesn't do a good job.
My wife says for no more hair than I have it's crazy for me to pay 15 and up for a trim.

I cut my hair myself. I can't do anyone else's hair though.

I don't know what barbers charge here.

I've been going to the same guy for years.
He's a Christian.
He has changed shops/salons a couple of times but I to with him.

I go the first Wednesday of the month at 9:45 a.m.
His current charge is $15 so I give him $20 and he keeps the extra.
Before he moved to this current place he was charging $12 and I gave him $20 so he has lost money moving to the current place.

It is crazy. The last time I paid for a haircut, 2004, I looked at result in disgust and supposed I could have done it at least that well, considering $16 and 10 minutes of work. From that day on, I have cut my own hair, and no one knows, or at least won't say so. After first mistakes, it's not so hard! I only needed a good pair of scissors and an extra mirror. I have plenty of hair and always look "apostolic," (but not intentionally so.) Your task may be easier! Eventualy the scissor work will happen by feel more than mirror coordination.

I don't think I could cut my own hair.
