Too bad, it’s close to home.
Try the Cal's in Colony Plaza. It is just a barber shop, not a beauty parlor.

The problem with Cal's - any Cal's - and most of the bargain shops around The Villages area is that the haircuts are either "buzz cuts," or they look like a $10.00 haircut. I travel to Ocala for an upscale haircut every month. Get your hair cut around here and you'll get what you pay for, and maybe not even that.

As I understand it, Cal's doesn't train barbers. They just rent chairs to experienced barbers. The barbers are independent contractors. They do make appointments, so a really bad barber will not last long.

Been 20 dollars for a while there

Way off base.

Me too although on #8. A lot of my friends cut their own too. That’s how I got started years ago.

[QUOTE=Michael 61;2174638]As a newbie, I need to find a barber, ideally south of 466- seeking a traditional barber, and not a “Supercuts” kinda place. Thanks. Cal's Barber shop

Finding a barber
 
Lady Lake Barber Shop. All the barbers are very good. My husband goes to Lynn Hicks, lady barber/cosmetologist. She is very good. Haircuts, $16.00. Ladies go there also and get very good cuts from Dave. 342 Hwy 27/441 s. Lady Lake. 352-750-9919.
After the haircut, go to Cottage Inn for lunch, great soups.

Now, that is funny.
