Paying to get seduced by your barber is crazy

One shop I go to is $35, I normally tip them to $45. The homie is $40, I normally hit him with $46. Even though I get a simple cut, it's hit or miss sometimes. i do have some thinning/balding spots that require extra skill I guess. But not really just line me up, and 0 guard open all around, fade out then back in at temple into my sideburns, straighten the lines/edges already present.

 

[MetalMario]

This is a safe place gents. nothing wrong

 

[oh you mad]

They finally going after these guys who charge $100 for a cut.

 

[AZwildcats]

I thought the $30 I pay was expensive, you guys are living in a different world

I only have a few years of cuts ahead of me anyways, I see the writing on the wall

 

[sportsjunkie]

I pay 40 for my haircut.

 

[seasoned vet]

ive developed a product that helps barbers cut hair faster.

its a modified design of a current item that usually costs around $15 - $25

how much should i charge for my item since they’re charging over $30 a haircut?

if a haircut takes 25 minutes, my product reduces that time to 5 minutes a cut

My guy recently just went up to $40, I get it, he was charging $30 though and I would usually throw him 35-40 anyway. I feel like he was sick of folks not throwing him tips and because he could, he also always *****ing about his personal problems with his grown kids and it's like bro can we just talk sports and women like most barbers

Last time I went in I repeatedly tell him I want a corporate fade (not a hard line) and a little off the top, he repeatedly cuts more off than I'd like and I ALWAYS have to remind him no crisp line, I get that I am unique but I see him pretty regularly and he should know by now, ESPECIALLY for $40 bones

I have decided to now cut my own **** out of principal, it's been trial and error but it helps growing it out so I can try a taper wait a few days then try again. Hats are my friend for now but I am done with this ****!

 

[datznasty]

Don't matter how many times you tell them not to, they're coming with that spraypaint afterwards too

 

[onewearz]

i started cutting my own hair after my barber's prices and availability were gettin stupid. invested in babyliss everything and one of those 3 way mirrors and now saving $200 a month. just can't stop my eyes rollin up in my head doing my lineup

speaking of lineups, any other self barbers here use something like lectric shave with trimmers ? i use it with the razor after but just curious if they'd make a difference with the trimmers. any tips or advice is appreciated

 

[DB Cooper]

My barber raised the prices again. Well, I can play that game too. I cut the total amount of tip I would usually leave.

5 minutes?

This a 1 guard all over cut? Fades take at least 10-15 minutes

I did the same. Also stopped getting my beard lined and am doing it myself.

I don't let barbers line up my beard. It's been a while now, but so many of them would mess up the shape. Even the guy I go to currently. I couldn't understand, the shape is there just clean it up. I just line it up myself then get a cut.

 

[Mark Antony]

Beard such a personal thing, barber never got it just right anyways. Too high, too low etc.

 

[Nike Jordan]

My barber only charged me $25, but I tipped him $10 and got him a gift card because it was his birthday.
