How Much Was Your Mullet?

starbelgrade

I just spotted a Boards ad on the screen for a hairdressers, advertising a wash, cut & blowdry for €30 instead of the usual €120.

Two things struck me as odd about this... firstly the text in the ad makes the hairdressers name look like "The Rape" and secondly was the price.

Now, it's been a long time since I had enough hair to warrant a trip to the barbers, but at €120, I would seriously feel like I was getting raped.

So, how much did you pay for your last haircut / hairstyle, was it worth it & can you still get a short back & sides for less than a fiver?

Senna

I go to a barber, €8.

RichieC

€12 was my last hair cut, i gave a fiver tip cause it was Christmas eve.

My mother cuts my hair, so free with free Freudian overtones

deathrider

Tenner with my regular barber, which includes a bread cut. So I'm happy enough with the price.

And Oedipus highlights.

Twee.

Colour, cut and blow dry €125, twice a year. Maybe one cut in between if it's looking ****e.

A Freudian Snip?

policarp

Hairdressers for women.

It seems I overpriced the lowest option.

Hank_Jones

:pac: I do have great hair though!

Sticky_Fingers

Cut my own hair, have done so for the last decade. I must have saved an absolute fortune by this stage, I might even have enough for those hair plugs that I sorely need

What the f*ck is a bread cut?

WindSock

Yes but how often do you go to The barber?

Pdfile

my hair grows fast so i spend quite a bit, hair cuts normally 12 euro + tips 15+ :rolleyes:

sensibleken

I have dreads so no hair cuts for me. And starblegrade they do get washed, as do most people with them.:rolleyes:

125 for highlights, cut & blowdry, few times a year
Cut on its own would be 50, but now that I've grown my hair out I don't need that as frequently

Mint Sauce

About a tenner two years ago, have only been to a barbers/hairdressers about 5 or 6 times in last 10 years.

Usally do my own with €30 to €40 clippers.

Irish Guitarist

I think my last haircut was €10.00. I was overcharged. I told her to cut a tiny bit off my hair but she cut it as tight as she could. My hair looks terrible when it's really short. I have a double crown so it looks like I'm balding. She also left some random strands of hair longer than others. I'm planning on going somewhere decent next time.

I think if you want to get anything other than a shaved head and you actually want your hair to be even you need to spend more than €10.00.

pickarooney

16 euros every couple of months. I work with a place that charges £400 for a cut with what they pretentiously call an 'Artistic director' but that's only the beginnings of it.

jester77

Mine grows like mad, have to get it trimmed and thinned out every 4 weeks. €55 for wash and cut, don't even get a blow dry included!

Dravokivich

15 quid... back in May... not intending another haircut till end of August.

€125 twice a year is nothin for a lotta gals I know!!! haha talk to some unnatural blondes!

I pay €55 for a cut and blowdry probably 2-3 times a year. Do my own colour so thats €7 whenever I think I need it/i'm bored of it, prob bout twice a year aswell.

PeterIanStaker

Grafton barbers €12, very good service as well.

df1985

16 euros but for every 5 i get the next one free. i could go closer to home for a tenner but im never fully happy with it,always find uneven bits or places they miss. For my 16 euro, its always perfect,the lads are sound and I sometimes get 2 stamps on the loyalty card instead of one.

McChubbin

€30 for a haircut I didn't want. I have a fringe now which is the only redeeming feature. But seriously, when I ask for a mohawk I expect a ****ing mohawk!!!! :mad: *shakes fist at conforming hair dresser too stupid to take the hint*

Sofiztikated

€12. Today in fact. Can't cut my hair myself, I'd make a **** of it.

I like the place I go to. Pretty Polish lass cuts my hair. I try not to stare at her booberies in the mirror. The only place I can get my hair cut in this town without them making a haims of it.

Jaxxy

My friend does my hair for me; cut, re-style, the occasional highlights etc. €35 normally covers it. Lads are never going to spend as much as the ladies on their hair though in fairness. As someone else has said girls can spend up to €125 every 4-6 weeks on colour upkeep and maintenance should they think they need it.

kylith

I always go to a Chinese hairdresser. I got my mums, two of my nieces and my own hair cut for about €50. And they do it really well. My mum comes up to Dublin on her free pass now to get her hair cut there.

Dudess

I get a cut (if not much off) and colour - depending on where I go (I float between two local salons, one salon in the centre of town, and Peter Marks - all depends on which is most convenient, how short/long notice etc) it's between €60 and €80. And that is actually pretty reasonable...

m5ex9oqjawdg2i

I cut my own hair...

Praetorian Saighdiuir

Every 4 weeks, €18 in Champs...plus the standard €2 tip for not taking my ear off. Usually very happy with the result.

I have tried €5 and €12 haircuts.................big no no.
