(I had an ex-boyfriend who used to pay about £30 to get his hair cut. He was a poncey twat).

i always imagined part of the joy of female haircut is to be able to tell others how much you've spent on your haircut.

well buying in advance is usually cheaper than day of travel (you're paying for the convenience and flexibility of just wandering to the counter and get your ticket and go?)

Attractive Russian hairdresser, probably recently trained, being very slow and very methodical. I would recommend the experience if you're ever in Waterloo and in need of a haircut.

Don't get me started on the drinks as well. £11 for a double whiskey and Coke I paid the other week.

Mrs Dr. C takes 2 hours. I reckon it's around £60, but may be more. I am not privy to that information. So approx = 50p/min. Also I know that several glasses of wine are involved.

Cut Shop in Euston is good for people who don't want to talk to hairdressers - they are quick and it's £15 or so, and you don't have to make appointments - it is like being in the Japanese Future! Or perhaps just Japan. They have a special haircut vacuum system which means no itchy neck - so they say! I certainly had no itchy neck. My haircut was alright, seeing as I had no idea what I wanted, it was just in the middle of the heatwave and my hair was TOO DARN HEAVY.
I want a haircut again now, but I have just started being complimented on my hair now it is just past shoulder length, and my desperation for SOMETHING about me to look good won't just let me cut it all off at the moment.

Strangely, it costs me more to have less hair cut-off.

OT MUTHAFUCKING M
Womens haircuts are stupidly expensive. I haven't had my hair trimmed in a year because the last time I tried to get a trim - just a trim, mind you, chop the ends off, no styling - everywhere I asked wanted to charge me £30. FOR A TRIM!!!
Eventually after asking around, a place did it for about £20, but still. Absurd.
My ex used to get his hair cut at one of those £5 places. I went to get my hair trimmed there - they told me it would be £10 because I had long hair. I just wondered if a male with long hair went in there it would be the same. Grrrr.
I think I may try this cut shop place, but I utilised the Liz self haircutting method this past week.
Trains, also. WTF? The service gets worse and the prices go up. Start making sense, please.

Why are their prices climbing at such an absurd rate?
When I first started buying them, they were £60. They they went up to £65 within about 6 months. The past Xmas, they were at £75. This is all within about two years!

I want a haircut.
I suppose with a lapdance you are paying for the memories.
I have noticed this last week that the reduced train service has managed to be on time at least, but that might be due to fewer passengers, sorry, customers.

Actually it probably would be the same. I've been charged extra for having a lot cut off.

I quite like going to the barber's but you could do it more often at home, and at any time.

The other thing though is that the cinema exhibition industry has been in a serious crunch for a while, really ever since home video took off as a format. The party line is that they can't make ticket prices any lower and still keep the lights on; the ONLY profit they make is actually in the concessions. Why one chain doesn't knock the price back slightly and try to make its name as the one where you don't have to pay through the nose for concessions is obvious: they would have to run ads proudly proclaiming "Only $2.25 for a box of Junior Mints!" which doesn't sound good even if the going rate is $2.75. So even though everybody who goes to the movies does nothing but gasp in horror at the prices, no individual exhibitor has any incentive at all to cut the prices back.

Indeedy-doody. A few months back Pam, in late stages of pregnancy and not really keen on setting up the mirrors at home to cut her own hair (which is what she usually does), decided to splash out on a HBF cut. Retained her basic bob but with all these 'orrible long bits. I thought she looked OK (from the photos she took) but before I got home she'd lopped off all the superfluous stuff.

I bought a beard trimmer recently for 15 euro in boots, it doesn't quite give you a cueball clean shave but it does enough that I'm never buying razors again, at least not until such time as I have a job that requires a cueball clean shave...not looking likely anytime soon...LIVING THE DREAM
