$10, and that includes a 20% tip. Nice Asian woman in her twenties, working at her small family barbershop.

I don't think that barbershop has a *single* certificate/diploma/degree from any barber or beauty school, but she cuts my hair consistently well for much less than Great Clips or SuperCuts.

When I am in my Florida home it's $8 for the second best haircut I've ever had and I tip the old man Carl $2 so $10 total.

When I am in IL I go to a barber who gouges me for $14 but does a very fine and consistent job. I give him $15 because he's the owner and you really aren't supposed to tip the owner of a barbershop.

I am looking into getting some clippers and doing it myself. My gf says she will clip it for me too if I buy the equipment. At $15 a pop the clippers pay for themselves very quickly. ;)

40 swiss francs! that's about $32 !!!

it hurts each time I have to shell out that kinda cash for something that takes no more than 10 min.... so I try and visit a barbershop whenever I travel overseas (which I do most of the time)... LOL

About 30 -60 minutes of sex.

Wife cuts it and usually she wants some type of payment in return.

Nothing. I use clippers and cut my own. I have ever since the Army.

$15 or less, including tip.

I usually use the coupon for $9.99, and I tip up to 2-5 dollars, depending on how they did.

$55? for that much, i'd expect a handjob after she trims my sideburns.
