I get the same thing every three weeks. A faded buzz cut. Takes him all but 20 minutes. He charges $12.

I sometimes feel it's too cheap. What do you guys think?

$3 is fine.

Asian lady that cuts my hair charges $12 and I usually tip her $5.

Depends on how good the haircut is. But twenty minutes? Thats like twice as long as id expect. Give him a $5 bro, if he does a good job. I tipped my barber $20 for a badass fade, he almost pissed his pants then shook my hand.

Nothing like a fresh haircut to make a man feel good.

12 dollar haircut? lmao where is this

All he does is a simple faded buzzcut. It should take him less than 20 minutes but we have good conversations so he likes taking his time with me.

If I had longer hair and he had to do an actual haircut he'd charge more.

It's 25%.

Absolutely fine

That's a big tip to give a waiter. But a barber spends a lot more time with you and does more work for you personally.

Yeah, you're fine. I usually give $5 for haircuts, but $3 is good for a $12 one.

Mine is usually 50-60 minutes. Includes 2 washes (one at the beginning, one after the cut before the styling), straight razor for the lines, etc. Costs me $6 and they won't accept a tip.

That's actually the exact amount I pay and tip my barber for a haircut every three months, so I hope it's fine. He's never said anything about it, and I've been going to him since high school.

Mine has been very nice and grateful as well. Plus I go to him very often.

Yes the customers that tip big will get some perks, like appointments when Im closed(Im strictly walk in during business hours) but haircut quality isnt one of them. As long as you pay what my shop charges you will get a fire cut and be welcome with a smile.
