    Haircut

    Due to working away from home for a while and never having time during weekends, i'm now in desperate need of a haircut and I'm considering going to an expensive salon just to see if it's worth it.

    This got me thinking, how much does everyone else pay?
    (excluding tip although I know some of you tight arses on here will be spluttering at the very idea)

    NB: VOTES ARE PUBLIC, thought it'd make it more interesting to get an idea of whoever votes and their look

        I've worked with people who pay £50 for a basic SBAS haircut you could get for £5 elsewhere. Emperors new clothes and all that.
        The court heard Darren Upton had written a letter to Judge Sally Cahill QC saying he wasn’t “a typical inmate of prison”.

        But the judge said: “That simply demonstrates your arrogance continues. You are typical. Inmates of prison are people who are dishonest. You are a thoroughly dishonestly man motivated by your own selfish greed.”

              Depends on how attractive the girl cutting my hair is.

              Up to £35 I've paid in the past.

                  I doun't know of any barbers near me that do a cut for less than £9.

                  If I did I'd use them.

                    A tenner. Been going to the same guy for years and therefore had the same stupid looking do for years.

                    It's always the same conversation and he always calls me dave (not my name). Still, better the devil you know and all that.
