50 quid. Every 8 ish weeks. Manchester.

Cut by hand - none of this clippers nonsense - by the same intelligent, funny and rather fit woman for the last decade or so.

Worth every penny.

Village barber, £8.50, North Yorkshire, when it gets long enough to be annoying so maybe 3-4 times per year.

£10, whenever I can be bothered. Was a bit wild last weekend (think Guy Martin through a hedge backwards, with accompanying 'burns 😀 ) so had a Christmas trim. Think it was 9 weeks since I'd been before then.

Oh, Worcester.

Brant cuts my hair with clippers forged from reclaimed OnOne Inbred steel.
A snip, literally, for a hundred notes a pop

Some of us have to look like tramps to avoid unwanted attention (from both sexes).... 🙂

£23 every four weeks at a hairdresser in a nice part of Stirling, rather than some chop chop in Raploch that the Op obviously uses..

Jesus there's either some rip-off merchants or mugs about....

Never paid more than £10 - anything more than that is straying into "hair salon" territory and all that entails!
No.2 back and sides about No.5 faded through on top.
simple - about every 6-8 weeks'ish. (ok 8-10 weeks... I'm a bloke)

Just been thinking, we must have the most Barbers per hundred yard in my small town than anywhere else. There are 4 barbers on the Market st and 3 unisex salons in about 100 yards.

There are another 2 unisex and a barbers in the little village a mile away.

This town is just nail bars, haircuts and sunbeds....

£7.50 probably once every 6 weeks.

The Jeremy Vine show is a minus but the price and consistency of cut as well as being work lunch doable is the win.

Cut in Time, Manchester

'd get it done more often, but I don't like the "I've just had my hair cut" look I get for a week or so afterward, then it's nice for 2 weeks, then it's a bit of a standoff until my wife says I look scruffy.

Me too, so about 5 times a year then 🙂 Definitely went through a phase of fearing hair dressers.

£8 @ just a stroll down the road. Usually it's one of two girls and takes about 15 minutes, preference for how the more common girl does it. Occassionally get a bloke and he'll turn it into a 50 minute torture session in which each individual hair is precision cut to within a tolerance of +/-0.01mm.
