£10
I usually wait until I look like a mental farmer, then about a month or so after that I'll go and get it cut
Nothing as I use this every two to three weeks ...
You bloody long-haired hippy!
And you don't want to be using that primitive set up man. Get with the programme! You need a [url= http://www.shavers.co.uk/product.php?product_id=1433 ]Flymo for your head[/url] 😀

£25 a month, Bristol.
I'm going out on a limb here, but reckon there's a correlation between jeans & haircuts. How many of the sub £10 haircuts buy their jeans from Asda or TM lewin? And how many >£20 know what chronic crotch blowout on raw selvedge means?
I was just reading an article the other day in the Evening Post about the gentrification of many Bristol suburbs..... 😉
£0 here, wife does my hair with clippers. As I recall, the last time I paid for a haircut was 1998.

😆 Not exactly full of hairs but lack of that is the problem. You see if I don't shave off the remaining patches of hairs on me head I would look like a Koala bear with two sides sticking out ... 😯
I know what you mean. I do mine every couple of days. I have too. Otherwise I have a sliding scale of former leaders of the Tory party I start to resemble. If I leave it a week....

If I leave it more than that, I start getting a bit too...

Similar to another post, I miss living in Manila. £1.50 for a haircut, head massage, wet shave (and a beer on a Friday).
In Thailand, i've given up on barbers, paid £30 for some clippers and do my own #2 every week or so.
My last UK hair cut was 7 years ago. 15 bloody pounds!!!!
depends who i go to...
there is a turkish place a couple of minutes from my house...they charge £10 but depending on who sits my hair...its either good or badly done.
there are two places where i used to live about 20 minutes away from me...one charges £12 and the girls there do a very good job...the other place charges £5 and again does a very good job but its always packed out (one man band) if its not too busy its worth going to as he does an awesome indian head massage after he's cut your hair!!
i used to do the grade 1 all over at least once a year...but the wife hasnt let me do that for a few years now...so the clippers only come out when i'm doing a bit of beard trimming or doing the kids hair.
My missus once cut my hair with clippers.
Given that i'd managed to to the top, fringe, right hand side and left sideburn in the mirror or by feel/co-ordination, how she managed to make quite such a mess WITH CLIPPERS I have no idea. Seriously, the sheep have a better job from the Kiwi's each spring.
Having said that my beard usually grows like Brian Blessed's. Trimming it into any kind of shape is incredibly difficult so I either just grow it for 8 weeks and shave, of have to accept no.6 all round and permanently look like I'm trying to grow a beard.
As for the original question £12-£13, just moved house, seems more consistent between the cutters, but not anywhere near as good as the boss at the old place.
£16 every two to three months. Scissors not clippers. Rent is not cheap in Windsor and the Italians have the barbershop market sewn up. Left it four months after the accident, and the floor was covered in red.
The eyebrow and nose trim is included 🙁
Just paid a tenner at a different place.
Seems good, conversation about non-DM stuff. It'll do.
£25 every 4 weeks for me.
Wash/cut/cup of coffee and a biscuit.
That reminds me,
Years ago, my granddad got one of those cut-your-own-hair gizmos probably made by Ronco or some such, basically a nit comb with a razor blade inside. I'd have been maybe 8 or so? By the time he'd finished I looked like one of those kids you see promoting a charity for abused children. Left me with a phobia of hairdressers for years.
China.
For me it's not the cost, but finding someone, that will just give me a simple haircut.
They really like to go to town on your hair, it's f ing horrible the way they do it to.
Now I just take my passport in with me, and say like this, and they look at me as if I'm an idiot.
Really, I don't want any crap or gunk in my hair, I am a wash a go person.
I'm more on bikebuoy's territory - 40ish* quid every couple of months.
For that I get:
A hairstyle I like that suits me, and not a no imagination buzz cut.
Wash, head massage and an hour spent with a hairdresser who is Welsh, mad as a box of frogs, fit.
All those things are worth 6 hours of my life a year.
*seems to vary and TBH I can't really remember - at that price what's a fiver either way? 😉

£10.50, £12.50 include beard trim when I have a beard.
Sounds like a lot of you are getting fleeced.

£16 with Lindsay or £8 with Keeley.
I'm more likeley to bite Keeley.
Hair cut in a bag ..... 8 quid
Sometimes there's a offer on ... bogof
😀
I'll chuck in my cost and see if that bumps it up a bit shall we.£62
crikey , I excpect thats a full body haircut?back ,sack and crack. 😀
I pay a tenner at the local Cypriot barbers - they're all over 60 and drink espresso like it's water. I've actually moved nearer to another one but the crack is great with the older gents.

you pays your money, I suppose.
Winchester, Hants:
- Haircut: £35.
- Pint: £5.40
- Horse: For riding on if privately educated
Aktobe, Kazakhstan:
- Haircut: £1
- Pint: 50p
- Horse: Dinner
Spend half the year in each place. Kazakhstan wins on all forms of purchasing activity.
Pretty much lost the lot but when I get the remnants clippered it's about £14 at the Russian place near work.
Local Turkish place charges £10. There's a place I know that charges £5 and you get an Indian head massage thrown in but he's always busy. If I get a pretty girl to cut it in a salon it costs me £12.
£5 for a number one at Blind Pugh's in the link.
Also get an update on what's what.
Was paying £35 in Bow Lane but the last cut was a bit of a rush job, so I have switched to trying the 'Istanbul Barbers' in Woking for the last two cuts - at £12.
Been wanting to visit since when the shop next door was the 'Transylvanian Grocery Store', but sadly that has closed.
The main problem is that it is a bloody short cut and his English isn't great so it is difficult telling him to cut it less short. I think I am onto a loser as I think he has an upper limit on the grade available for his trimmer thingies.
Wash/condition and a scissor-cut is £10 or £15 dependent on barber.
Really decent job too, but you need a relaxed attitude to facial tattoos and the purchase of knocked off hair products.
£7 and a £3 tip -but this is in the South East.
£10, but have a loyalty card that gets stamped every time, your 10th cut is free. At my current rate I'll be getting a free haircut in 2 years. Having had the card a year already.
£30 (£26 + tip) for a skin fade & beard trim at [url=
Barber[/url], but only when I manage to get down to That London.
Just had my hair cut, £10 plus tip and I am looking goooooood 😆
£17 in Edinburgh. They do a reasonable job so can't complain too much.
Is tipping still a thing at the barbers?
Cost me £10 for my hipster hair and beard trim on Saturday
About 90p at my local one near the house.
If I let the MrsQ do it, then it generally costs me an hour of my time, and a good fight as she is very very very slow at cutting my hair, and I eventually lose my rag at it taking so long.
I prefer spending the 90p these days to save my sanity.
£5 when I last paid for one. Actually that's not quite true - £5 was what I usually paid, but it was £12 at the trendy barbers (with a table football table) where the kids get theirs done when I last paid.
If I can just hijack for a second, those who do it themselves, how do you deal with the bottom of the back? No problem with the rest of it, but that's tricky and doesn't always come out well.

Not that sort of back 🙄
£8.50 which is genius as no-one is going to not give him £10! Not that i begrudge his tactic - he does a good job 🙂
£4.50 to £8.00 depending where I go. One local barbers does free "trainee" haircuts. Quality of that can be very hit or miss 😯
6 quid on Tottenham Court Road 🙂
Local Turkish barbers charges £11 for hair and beard (I think it's £7 for hair, and £4 for beard), which includes ear burning, cheek plucking, wash, and a lemon dressing. I always give them £15.

There is a place at the top of Leith Walk called Victoria Barbers that I have used on a few occasions. I was very happy with their work, and it was less than £17. IIRC, it was around £12.
And they have a parrot.
£9.50 plus big tip of 50p. Barber has a loyalty card 10th cut free. He remembers I don't care about football, has new jokes every time and won Come Dine with Me!
£6.50 for a 3 all over (with a bit of fringe left on) & as a bonus I often get to feel Traceys boobs. 😆
