Default Gents, what do you pay at the Barbers?




I go to a Turkish barber and pay a little more (£12) but they tape your neck with this paper to stop hairs going down your back and frequently blow the hair away with a hairdryer so when you leave you are not itchy or uncomfortable.

Also they dont speak to you so you can sit silently, which is nice.

How about you?

£7. They did me my first haircut and I always go to them so I don’t pay full price.

For £28? Obviously your hookers have been as cheap as your barbers, LT.

£18 for a cut and blow dry, but £50 altogether if I have my roots/colour done (which I have done every two-two 1/2 months)

being a bottle blonde isn't cheap!

£20 but I tend to have it styled
Also I hate the barbers because they try and small talk for 30 mins and I’m like no

Normally I just ask for my hair to be cut in the same style and they are done within ten minutes, not sure if it works the same way here than in Britain...
