Nothing. £20 for some clippers about 5 years ago 🙂 It's far far easier than making appointments and whatnot.

Local gents hairdressers £13 (FFS). Surrey prices.

Fortunately I'm a bit folically challenged and the missus cuts mine with the clippers ever week or two. Potentially saving ~£500pa!!!

£18.50 in theory, but £1.50 tends to stick to his hands.

No appointment necessary barbers 2 minutes from my office, so it actually gets done occasionally. 🙂

I only pay a tenner if I get a happy ending, but I stopped asking for them a while back after Kevin replaced Julie 😕

£25 clippers, 2 sets in the last 15 years, haircut about every 6 weeks is about 8 cuts a year, so about 42p per cut. 🙂

Clippers? MTFU
Real men lather up and wet shave for a proper chrome dome.

I haven't paid someone else for a haircut since 1992.

£12.50, which I thought was cheap until I saw what some of you are paying. Then again I used to have it done in central London where £20 was a cheap haircut...

Being a long-haired neb, I had a haircut a couple of weeks ago for the first time in about two years. Had it washed and cut (cos it seems to come out better if they cut it wet), think that was about eight quid.

Yay for being a bloke, my OH's annual haircut budget could keep me in haircuts for life.

i'm liking that a good half of the people are going the ghetto route. can't stand hair dressers, making small talk with somebody i have nothing in common with for 10 minutes is not something i call enjoyable. And when i bothered with growing hair they never did it right...

+1 for the missus with clippers nowadays 🙂

£20.

Their own car-park, 5 mins drive from work and generally a ladies place, so plenty of employees and customers who are pleasing.

Makes for a nice lunchtime jaunt once a month.

Menu options freely discussed - Brazil>California>Playboy>Hollywood - increase in price each time - go figure.

Local Turkish barber - £7. I normally round up to £10 because they do a great job and are way cheaper than others in the area.

You'd seriously clean up. Female hairdressers are consistently ranked as the profession blokes fancy the most in the highly scientific surveys done on the subject by esteemed journals such as Loaded and Nuts.

I wonder if topless would need a special license. Skimpy would probably work 90% as well and attract less of the dirty mac brigade 😆

And it's £7.50 to £12 or so round my way. My gut feeling says a fifteen quid is the limit for a bloke's haircut.
