    Its getting to the stage where I get my hair cut so infrequently that its like going to the dentist. I know I need to go but keep putting it off. I'm losing my hair at an alarming rate so I'm holding on to what I have until absolutely necessary. I'm surprised that they havent given me an appointment card for my 6 month check up! Get it done in the Barbers Room on College St. 20 quid for a wash, cut and a conversation with a FINE lady of eastern european extraction.

    I just got a free haircut at a barbershop down the street from me. They normally charge around ten US dollars. Most area salons charge at least $40 for a wash, cut and dry, which I think is ridiculous.

    This is about a "cut", not a "coat".:P

    What about including mid-priced places in the poll?

    Peter Mark mostly, as you can pretty much walk in and get your hair done whenever you feel like it, or else a local salon (open far less hours and often an appointment has to be booked quite a long time in advance).

    I don't get anything complicated done and I have poker-straight hair. For a colour touch-up (just black - no mixing involved) and a trim, I pay between €55 (local salon) and €80 (Peter Mark). No need for straightening or deep conditioning. My hair is considerably long which adds to the expense.
    That might seem excessive cost-wise but if I were to get the same done in a posh place I could be charged €120+! :eek:

    A hairdressing school would charge me about €40 (and they do a good job as they're so careful and are being supervised - if you want something done which is too difficult, a fully qualified stylist will do it as a demonstration for the trainees, which is always sweet :pac:) but those places are not open weekends or evenings.

    I nearly wasnt goin to post this cos i wanted to keep it a secret, but im just too bloody delighted with myself. Eventually...after years of paying €40+ in peter marks for a hit and miss Cut and Blow Dry, finally found a deadly mobile hairdresser.

    Wait for it....






    €15 for a brilliant cut and blow dry, with Kerastase products..in my own gaff last night, in my PJs while watching the soaps. I gave her a fiver tip (which i never do) cos i was just so delighted with myself (and my hair) :D

    Brummytom ye need to add another option to your poll there ha!

    I used to get a haircut once a year in a local barbers for 12euro, hated getting it cut. I would give it a tidy at the back sometimes with a little scissors

    now I try get it cut every 2 months because hair looks better when its shaped well. so far I havent got a bad cut from the guy
