    I usually use alfies but I think they charge around €12 for a haircut which is getting a bit ridiculous. Any one know anywhere cheaper that are still half decent. I don't get anything fancy, just blades on the sides and back and scissors on top.

    I wish my hair cost €12
    It's always cheaper for boys.
    I only ever get a trim and that costs €40.
    I really don't know where it would be less than €12

    There probably isn't many. In Dublin there are places that do it for €5. I'd kill for that up here. Saying that €12 isn't that bad. One of the lads from work pays €24 for a haircut in kaoz (I think that's how it's spelt). That's nuts, you'd want to be getting a blowjob or something thrown in for that price.

    I think Sligo has a lack of "cheap" things in general.

    I got my hair cut in Alfies a few weeks ago off a Polish girl, who was very nice indeed... But she left me with a bit of a mullet :(

    LOVE to see that!


  • Registered Users Posts: 8,085 ✭✭✭Xiney


    Yeah John had to get the beginnings of a mullet taken off before he left the last time we were in Alfie's.

    btw, welcome back sue :)

    Not becoming chimpy. Always were! :) Your hair just adds to it. It won't stop when you get it cut.

    I had a similar reaction to Sue at AC's comment! :D

    I wish I could get my hair cut for €12! :(

    Actually this is quite useful to me.

    I don't have a regular barbers,just go to the first one I see when the idea of getting my haircut comes into my head.
    Has anyone tried the place opposite Tk Maxx in Quayside?

    €10 or €12 seems to be the standard price in Sligo for a trip to the barbers these days:(


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,589 ✭✭✭Hail 2 Da Chimp


    I got my hair cut in that place in Quay side, but only 'cuz one of my mates recommended it... Although I realised after he only recommended it because they have a few really hot girls working there, nothing to do with their hairdressing skills.


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,392 ✭✭✭TequilaMockingBird


    Cool, thats the hair sorted.


    Now...moisturisers!

    *Ducks to avoid all the incoming testosterone!!*

    Since the title of the thread doesn't specify for which sex, can I ask if anyone can recommend a good affordable hairdresser (for women) that have bright hair dyes?


  • Registered Users Posts: 8,085 ✭✭✭Xiney


    I go to Rossano on Market street (or is it High street at that point?)


    I won't say how much I pay since my husband reads this and I'd like to continue being alive...

    Of course there are manly men on the forum.. men like myself who enjoy various manly activities such as weight training, boxing, paintballing, knitting and hemming.

    I'm a little wary of him tbh. He uses a cutthroat razor for trimming the edges, which I wouldn't mind normally but he went a little too close one day and scraped the top of my skin off........Ouch!
