If a cut were $12 I'd probably give them $15.

I pay $35 for the cut.

The stylist gets $10, the shampoo girl $3-$5, usually $5.

I've been using it for 4-5 yrs now. For me it's a lot safer than disposables because its less likely to nick.

At least $5 but then again I don't know what male haircuts involve.

My cut and color comes out to about $130 or was it $150. I forget because i think she gives me discounts based on how she is feeling that day or the longer i stay with her because unlike her other snobby clients i am not a pain in the ass. I give her $40 but i never know if I am under or overtipping. I don't know if the 20% rule counts as far as hair services so i tip based on what I want if i was in her shoes.

That's because barbers give the same haircut to each man.

And why they won't cut womens hair, even though they go to school 6 months longer.

Nothing, I cut my own or get her to do it free. But on the topic of cutting/shaving hair...


Why in the fucking world are those disposable Mach3 Gillette Turbo Fusion 4 blade with the gay lotion strip $100 for a fuckin 5 pack?!

Whoever came up with that scam must be swimming in $100 bills...

She gets between 15 and 25%, but of course there are those who do not tip at all, even long time customers.
