I finally got a good barber and I ain't leaving him for shyt. He was super cheap at first now he's charging about the same as the prices yall are saying in this thread. I don't mind paying it because it's really quality and I am getting my money's worth. When I first moved to this area I couldn't find a good barber near me for like a year and a half. Now everywhere I go people ask me who my barber is. What I don't like is the Style Seat app he uses charges $1 to book an appointment, but I told him strait up that shyt is gonna effect your tip.

Miss me with inflation when these muthafukkas dont pay TAXES. Unless these fukkers work at superkutz, they dont produce a W2.

I understand the sentimental aspect of a barber and all that. And that feeling of freshness when you walk out that bytch, but its not worth the crazy prices.

Folks want fast food employees to make more money (which they should make more) but expect barbers to give you 2002 prices for haircuts!:dead:

What 2002 prices? Barber set the price themselves and have been steadily raising prices over the years already. Yall act like its been a rate set by the government. Charging $30 for a cut that takes 30 minutes and then get tipped on top of that is plenty. These mofos are NOT paying taxes, that makes a huge difference..

Im not shedding any tears for these barbers give me a fukkin brake.

My barber charges $25 for a cut now. He used to charge $20. I give him $40.

He saying that these new barbers are clout chasing for IG likes and to have $100 cuts.

Nah foh, jumping from $15 to $40 is nasty work, especially considering that the cut stays almost the exact same. $40 should be if you getting the full treatment and reserved seating :mjlol:

Coli heads cannot comprehend % increases. No one wants to pay 200% more for a basic cut.

I know 75% this site old as Judge Joe Brown elbows but if your barber is charging you 25 cash or really under 35 and you not selling him weed or pills, then that nikka don’t love you.

I could tell y’all getting 20 minute cuts for dat 25 cash. No razor, nikkas just slap Hennessy water on ya neck and dap u.

I been paying $40 a head and $25 in between shape-up since 2016ish. The last time I was even seeing 20 dollar cuts was in high school.

I support barbers raising prices but at the same time there is a limit.

I’m cool on paying $50 for now, but when it becomes the norm to be paying $80-$100 is when it becomes too much.
