huKSer Posted August 1, 2014 Share Posted August 1, 2014 I go to a barber that owns his own shop - I don't tip. If he needs more money, he should raise his prices. Great cuts - generally not either - I am cheap. Might be a guy hair thing? My mother in law goes to a lady who owns her own shop and still gives a tip. Quote Link to comment

HeyBurke Posted August 1, 2014 Share Posted August 1, 2014 I like to get my hair faded, so it's hard to find a barber that can cut my hair well. I found a guy that can do very good fades, so I usually tip him when I have the extra cash. If I just go to some chain place and get a crappy cut, I'm not gonna tip, though. Quote Link to comment
RedRedJarvisRedwine Posted August 1, 2014 Share Posted August 1, 2014 Tip the barber if you're a regular. My guy says good tippers are why he can keep his prices in check. Quote Link to comment
ShawnWatson Posted August 1, 2014 Share Posted August 1, 2014 Sports clips always has coupons for their triple play haircut and it f'ing RULES, you get haircut, steam towel and a scalp massage for like 13 bucks with the coupon. Quote Link to comment
sd'sker Posted August 1, 2014 Share Posted August 1, 2014 one hundred dollar bill, every time. Quote Link to comment
Scratchtown Posted August 1, 2014 Share Posted August 1, 2014 I tip. I usually only give a dollar here in GI but in Kearney when I went to "Replays" I always gave 2 bucks. I loved the steam towel, shampoo and massage. Quote Link to comment
beanman Posted August 1, 2014 Share Posted August 1, 2014 The only barber I go to won't even accept a tip if I give him one. But even though he's dirt cheap I still cut my own hair 90% of the time because I'm married and don't give a rat's ass how I look anymore. Any place where I'd be expected to give a tip is out of the question for me. Quote Link to comment

StPaulHusker Posted August 1, 2014 Share Posted August 1, 2014 I always tip my barber. I especially tip the people that cut my twin toddlers hair because that takes a lot of patience. Quote Link to comment
ColoradoHusk Posted August 1, 2014 Share Posted August 1, 2014 Did anyone on this board ever get their haircut at The Captain's Chair in downtown Lincoln. Man, I loved that place. They were great barbers, and their prices were reasonable. They would have magazines that you could read before/during your haircut, and they included Playboy. A friend of mine and I would always joke about being too shy/embarrassed to read a Playboy while getting our hair cut. Quote Link to comment
GSG Posted August 1, 2014 Share Posted August 1, 2014 I bought a $20 set of clippers a few years ago and haven't paid for a haircut since Quote Link to comment
NUance Posted August 1, 2014 Share Posted August 1, 2014 I tip $3 or $4 bucks, sometimes $5. On a SuperCuts haircut that costs around $16 or so. Quote Link to comment
