Barbers are now charging $60 for a cut in The Bay Area

Chair rent, and if you don't pay taxes, you will eventually get got. The IRS never loses.

They can't find out how much u make exactly. A booth cost $200 a month. That isn't shyt. That's 3.5 cuts

Been cutting my own hair since everything been messed up, these prices are outrageous. I got the shape up line and all already so it's easy as cake.

for real

im not about to risk catching some shyt while also getting my pockets ran when i work from home anyways my old barbershop boarded up months ago too. they tried to keep their prices up out here and shyt went south quick

That was just over 20 years ago.

How does a basic haircut go 5 times the amount in just 2 decades?

Same way everything else has… inflation. 10 years ago I had rent in the $600s paying 15-20 for a cut. That same apartment complex is going for 1100 and decent cuts here are 30-35

That's like filling up a legit SUV

So how do barbers do taxes anyways? Anyone...

The same as everyone. You report your income and based on what it is minus your exceptions that's your tax rate

CT, book online through Square and the 6.35% sales tax is assessed at checkout

When I moved to the DMV from Philly in 2015, I left a good barber and was worried about finding a good one down there

I found a chick that cut hair and she started out $40 and she was sharp

After a few months, she went to a new shop and started charging $45, no problem

After a few more months, she opened up her own shop at Lenfant Plaza, $50 a cut, no problem

After a year, she went up to $60 a cut and that's when the issues started

She started cutting celebs and athletes...she eventually went up to $100 a cut and I had to gracefully bow out

She was super sharp, always got compliments on my cut and beard but I just couldn't imagine paying that much every 7-10 days

I'm up, but I ain't a millionaire
