I could not make it this wednesday for my annual trim,the other full time barbers in town charge anywhere from 10 to 15 bucks,which I hate to pay that for a trim for no more hair than I have.I'm going to try to make it to my old faithful this wednesday.
What do the barbers charge in your area ? Like anything else haircuts seem to have gone up in price.

Couldn't tell you bro... My wife has cut my hair for the last 16 years.
What a money saver...

Sorry Bro. Scott - that just hit me funny!

I say annual cause I get a trim about every 3 to 4 wks.
Even though I'm thin on top if the rest of my hair gets shaggy then my hair looks like bozo the clown hair.

That will save you the time and bother of going to a shop plus about $200 a year.
I think some older guys like to go to a barber shop to hang out and talk.
My Father enjoyed doing that. even though my mother was a beautician (before upc) and could cut his hair,
he like his little hang out for the old guys lol

LOL, that is so true!!! My FIL gets his hair cut about once a month then makes a trip back once a day for the "gossip" (me thinks menfolk are much better at it than most womenfolk!) LOL
As far as cost......my husband pays 9.00 for his hair cut and he is also "follicle impaired" as someone else put it.....LOL! He says he is one of his barbers "gravy jobs"!

I have plenty of hair and always look "apostolic," (but not intentionally so.) Your task may be easier! Eventualy the scissor work will happen by feel more than mirror coordination.

Re: What Do the Barbers Charge In Your Area ?
Here in St. Louis Ipaid $13 last time plus tip. It took four trips to him before I got him trained. I think he misunderstood the first three times and thought I said I wanted a shave not a haircut. took three months to grow out. In Ca. I have been using the same shop for about 30 years. I think I paid $15 plus tip and $5. to have my beard trimmed. I haven't trusted the St. Louis barber with my beard yet.
