| get a haircut? and if you do... how much is 'normal' |

I pay $20 and tip $5 to the woman who used to cut my hair. But I have tons of cow licks and she knew how to cut it well so I stuck with her. Now that I've moved to Dallas I desperately need a cut, but don't want to let someone new butcher my hair and have it sticking up like Kevin Bacon in Footloose. Remember the Alamo, and God Bless Texas... |
My girl is absolutely the best-built woman I have ever seen and beautiful to boot. She cuts, then gently washes, then cuts the few strays again, then rubs some kind of smelly stuff into my scalp. She charges $14, so I give her $20. After two years of this she argues every danged time that it's "too much." ![]() She doesn't seem to realize I'd pay that just to sit and look at her for twenty minutes. |

sometimes I go to the barber shop and they dont do a very good job, when I get home I always have to trim around the ears with my disposable razor to get the hairs he missed, plus they dont even use a razor and hot lather anymore to finish it, so why should I leave a tip? poor service = no tip Im constantly changing barbers, I rarely go back to the same barbershop, I go to about 6 different barbershops or hair cutting salons. average price I pay for haircuts $8.00 to $11.00 not including the tip, I only tip if they deserve it |
