Johnny Hammersticks Posted May 5, 2019 Share Posted May 5, 2019 (edited) I remember when I was a young kid my dad always took me to “Joe the *****.” No matter what you asked him for you always got the same haircut. He had playboy magazines though. I think Joe’s mags were my first exposure to porn. I was like 5 or 6 ?

Chef Jim Posted May 5, 2019 Share Posted May 5, 2019 11 hours ago, Buffalo_Gal said: A visit to the salon is $130 + tip for me. I tip both my stylist and his assistant, so that brings it to over $170 for me. He just went on vacation, so I am sure his prices will go up next visit. I go every three weeks. Note: I never "just" get a haircut. I wouldn't know how much that is broken out. My wife spends as much every 4 weeks on her hair (cut and color) as I spend in a year. Probably more. I hate getting a haircut. So when I look in the mirror and say “hmmmm I need a haircut” that’s Chef Jim code for “four weeks”. So I spend $19 plus tip ($5?) every 8-10 weeks. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

plenzmd1 Posted May 5, 2019 Share Posted May 5, 2019 (edited) $18+$10 tip= $28 That includes ears, nose and eyebrows...oh its glorious getting old! But, this guy is an old school dude, gets your neck with a straight razor, and neck shaves between cuts are free, hence the $10 tip! So I see him about once a week for a neck shave! and every 3 weeks for a haircut. Edited May 5, 2019 by plenzmd1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WhoTom Posted May 5, 2019 Share Posted May 5, 2019 I paid $15 plus $3 tip for my last haircut, about a year ago. Last summer I shaved my head, so now I pay nothing. The money I save on haircuts now pays for razor blades. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My place doesn’t do the neck for free, but will clean up neck and ear area (in and above) for $8 between cuts. I think I’ve only done that once. I just wait until I need a cut.

Johnny Hammersticks Posted May 5, 2019 Share Posted May 5, 2019 A local woman here just opened a “gentlemen’s salon” near my home. They specialize in men’s haircuts, old school shaves, and beard trimmings. They also have an extra deal where you get a shoulder and neck massage. Sounds like an interesting place. The owner is a former bartender at night/hairdresser at day. Complete smoke show. The only weird thing about the place is that the 3 girls who work there (all young attractive women) wear very scantily clad uniforms. I’m talking cleavage popping out the top of their low-cut v neck shirts and yoga pants. Of course my wife has already warned me to stick with Sport Clips. If I went to the new gentlemen’s salon, I would probably be sleeping in the guest bedroom for a week. Might be worth it though? ?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great deal except for the fact that you’re spinning a roulette wheel of “decent haircut” and “dumb and dumber” because they have what seems to be 4000% turnover. I found a place here where I just moved (yes. I moved again, now I’m in Hoboken) that was $35 for just a haircut. I know again understand that you get what you pay for. $45 after tip but a hell of a haircut. Took my kid to Super Cuts once. I am 99.99% sure the woman who cut it was stoned. Hairxut turned out bad so I bought a kit and learned myself. I have been cutting my boys' hair for years... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Johnny - Sports Clips is the dimwitted younger brother of Supercuts, you need to do better....That wife is not the boss of you, you are a MAN, dammit! Its time you man up and march into that Cut n' Tug and order the full menu. I am talking cut, shave, reacharound, waxed eyebrows, even a Tennesssee Muzzleloader (if you are into that). And when you get home, tell that wife of yours how it is..... Then you are welcome to crash at my house until you are back on your feet. But don't tell my wife you went to that place, she'd never let you in the house. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
