Long hair on old women looks ridiculous.

Many men would strongly disagree.

For comparison purposes: Mens' current haircut cost in ABQ, NM $14, CDM, CA $20. They are both 20 minute haircuts and the barbers trim eyebrows and ears if you want. The women I know in Newport Beach pay anywhere from $80 to $250 and occasionally a little more which includes adding body, coloring, highlighting, streaking, cutting off split ends, and so on. Almost all of the women I know in Southern California prefer to wear their hair "blonded" (lol), shoulder length or longer.

Maybe they're taking a cue from primary care docs.

Absolutely agree.

No.2 all over. 10 minutes, no tip required.

After clipper purchase, and the first home cut, clippers are paid for, in profit every haircut after that!

Um.....maybe my hair stylist got it wrong. She said they will no longer offer the dry cut for women. A wash and cut would be 28. I’ll inquire once again when I go back.

I really don’t need a shampoo either. I really like the spray bottle wet down and cut. I don’t need a blow dry either as I always go home and shower right after to rinse all the prickly hair off me. I’d be happy with no change...😊

I carpool to Big Al's once a month with my neighbor. Men's haircut is $8.00, and every Monday there is a $1.00 off coupon in the paper. I've never waited more than ten minutes, and most times I am in the chair immediately. Never had a bad haircut there.

Reasonable considering what some pay for a bottle of water; pack of cigarettes; gallon of gas;

Very reasonable when compared to Rx pricing/gouging!!!!

Everybody wants to get a raise in pay....and even more support giving more money to those who serve us.....There is no secret where the money is going to come from to pay more to those who serve.........right?

I went to " Big Al's " Once and that was Once too often. Reminded me of the haircuts that I had on base.

I can still remember 5 minutes in the chair and the Loud VOICE. " NEXT " all inside 5 minutes.

What Cal's Barber Shop needs is a wake-up call in the form of competition, and from what I understand that will never happen.

Default Some mighty good lookin' people walk out of Cal's.

I called yesterday and the manager at Lake Sumter Location said that there had been no increase in prices.

Women's hair cut is still 17 .
