My friend's husband gets his hair cut at Market's of Marion. I think she said it is about $12, takes about 10-15 minutes, and it looks good.

Well I'm no longer an expert on anything. I've only been there just once and do not remember. Are the barbers/stylists at Cal's independent contractors or employees? As independent contractors they would most likely pay booth rent. Please educate me about the pricing there, does management set the prices? I do know that the lease rates for any business in any of the village owned properties aren't the cheapest, so the price increase might just reflect that. Last time I checked a business is entitled to make a profit.

I would think that Cal's barber shop would operate just like a real estate office. They are not employees but independent contractors. The owner provides the building, the chair and sink, a cashier, pays the utilities, advertising and any other overhead. The owner can then receive payment in one of two ways. He collects a percentage (a commission) from each sale, the barber keeps his tips, or he charges a flat monthly fee for each space, which is the way Remax Realty operates or did. BTW, I've cut my own hair since 1989, it's not hard to do.

" Big Al's ? Stopped going to that place years ago. I compared Big Al's to the Barber Shop at every military base. Zip, Zip, Zip approx. 7 minutes …. followed by NEXT.....

So what's that..... like maybe 3-4 people ahead of you? You're not the Villager I heard about (true story) going in with 8 coupons and wanting a haircut..... are you? I also heard there is another barber shop on 441 closer to the Villages that has a sign out "We fix $8.00 haircuts!"

No, most of them were unhappy complainers long before they moved here

I like being able to make an appointment. Had a guy in Wildwood, then he moved to Sumterville, then he got into an accident and hurt his back, now looking for another "barber" that makes appointments.

BTW, I cut my hair with a 3 bladed Schick razor in the shower; the only cost is the blade and probably two more minutes of water; it's as slick as a baby's behind.

I have been going to Cal’s in Brownwood for years (I am a woman) and have never gotten a cut for $17 or anywhere near that or are these prices for men?
