Everybody deserves a wage increase except black barbers. - The Coli

[FrontoBama]

Damn he charge you $25 for a shape up? That should be like $15 breh takes like 10 mins...

God bless America.

 

[Uachet]

I pay $50 dollars. 30 for the cut, 20 for the tip. I request a 0 guard though, so I really only get my hair cut once every two months. I am old, so I can get away with it.

 

[O.T.I.S.]

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.

If it’s a good barber who gives me a great cut and service, I always tipped them more.

The more I fukk with you the more I tip

But sorry, shyt changes. nikkas expecting $20 cuts better expect $20 service.

Coli just told me 150k and under is poor.. but mad barbers not charging $20 cuts no more

Nah they wildin.

It was never 15 an hour.

Most barbers i know and did business with, had clients ever 30 minutes.

And made at least 40 an hour. A lazy barber working only 5 days a week at 7 hrs a day makes over 70k. No taxes taken out and maybe 800 a month on renting a chair.

Supplies are not that pricey. fukkin lysol and razors and maybe a spray here and there.

Nah fukk that. They doubling and tripling prices

Barbers don't pay taxes? Yo I might need to make a career change

All 3?

Haircut prices are going up way faster than wages. Eventually they price themselves out of the market.

Getting cuts and shapes ups on a regular schedule is done. Natural styles are back and not going away.

Thread doesn't make sense because barbers aren't hurting for money
If barbers charged 2005 prices they'd still make more than majority fast food/retail. Probably double
Right now at these current prices barbers make more than teachers, cops, and maybe even nurses
Majority these dudes avg 2 heads a hour and don't pay taxes. The overhead at worst is rent but in majority cases it's just chair rent. They eating

 

[J.E.T.S]

Best thing I ever did was learn how to fade myself. Now, I started locking my hair I don’t even have to do that. Taper sides and back and edge up + beard and I’m done.

I’m cute as fukk.

 

[Sterling Archer]

Cuts have gone from $20 to like $60. What necessity has risen 200% that justifies that kind of increase?

None. And their prices went up during covid because they knew they could get it. This was BEFORE inflation and rent went through the roof for everyone.

So at old rates:

$40/hr
$1600/week
$6400/mo

About $76,800/year

Damn even at $30 they're in the 6 figure range

Lowkey I want to do this. My barber is good and always remember to correct mistakes, but know how to cut your own head mean a fresh head 24/7

Should I try?

They gotta pay taxes on that. Any dude that says barbers don't pay taxes is retarded.

And what about renting the chair?

 

[scorpino]

Covid was the best thing to happen to barbers…I’m not mad at them. A decent haircut is essential

 

[Rev]

$45, excluding tip, for a regular cut with the .5 clipper and a beard trim....killing me.
