Oh, I get a razor shave on the back of the neck, then a hot, wet towel over the head, with a head and neck massage. I don’t need a haircut, but I might schedule in the morning......

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 ?

Doc Brown Posted May 5, 2019 Share Posted May 5, 2019 6 hours ago, KD in CA said: $45+ tip The cheapest place around was $33 and that was a crappy old man cut. Do you live in Los Altos or something? Jesus. Mine is $15 and I give a $5 tip as long as they don't screw it up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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...

I’ve got your ‘free wine’ right here. ? It sounds like that salon could supply hair styling for the Pentagon. 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.
