Been using Cal’s Barber Shop for 18 years. They just raised a men’s cut from $16 to $18. When driving outside the compound I have noticed Barber signs (Wildwood) for $8.00. Any suggestions for a good Barber at a more reasonable cost than Cal’s?

Inflation my friend. Great clips is $18 and they are not a barber but you can get coupons for less and I usually tip the difference. Maybe save by cutting it shorter and going less often? Btw, did your total cost increase include the tip?

Do it cheaper by:
Get a Flowbee
Use a sharp razor and go bald
Let it grow and your options:
back to the 80s long, you might look awesome
cool ponytail
weirdo man bun - NO
corn rows
dreads might be nice at your age and you don't have to wash your hair for a year
or to be the first in the village, go with pigtails

After 18 years they raise the price by $2 and this is a problem?

So I guess there is something good about my hair thinning. Save money on both haircuts and shampoo. The glass is half full!

Cal’s at Brownwood has been $20 for over a year now. I tried that $8 haircut at Brandy’s when we first moved here. Let’s just say you get what you pay for.

Yes, Cal's at Brownwood is $20, but the Cal's at Colony Plaza is only $18.

It's not 1975 any more, $18 for a quality hair cut for a guy is pretty cheap. Get with the times.

Actually Cal's at LSL has been $18 for some months now. I get my hair cut there every six weeks or so. The person who cuts it for me does an excellent job so I always reserve time with that person rather than just rolling the dice.

$18 (actually $22, with a $4 tip) is a bargain, especially when you know what you will be getting. And $8 cut? I don't know--might be OK but maybe not. Like everything else, you get what you pay for.

A cheap investment with a quick ROI

Tip not included

It was $8.00 18 years ago

What do you mean they are "not a barber"? I thought you needed a state license to cut hair.

I just want a "BuzzCut"
but I pay just as much for that as Fabio next to me.
Thank God I'll be dead soon
