Had my haircut today, the place I normally go was full and I really wanted to get it cut as soon as possible, meaning I had to go to a nearby salon type place.
Cutting my hair is fairly simple, it doesn't even require scissors. I have a number 4 on top and a 3 around the back and sides. Easy, yes? Normally I pay £3.50 for this, which some may say is a bit expensive but today I almost had a heart attack after hearing the price.
Rip-off merchant: "That'll be £9, please."
Me: "£9!!!!"
Rip-off merchant: "Yeah, £9. Oh no, wait, you're under 18 so it's less."
Me: *sigh of relief*
Rip-off merchant: "It's actually £8."
Me: *shocked again, but pay anyway*
I only had £8 on me, it was unbelievable. It wasn't even a particuarly good cut, I think it was somebody on work experience that did it. Bah.

Even tho I am 18, it costs me £6 for a weekday where I live and £8 at the weekend. That doesnt seem expensive really. I mean obvously it'll cost more at the weekend...

Work Experience is quite over a week ago, It might be a new worker that cutetd your hair.
I pay 10.50 for a haircut.
And then I susally tip them 1.50, because they give really good cuts.

£5.50 is still well under £8 though.
Haircuts cost me £0 because I don't get them.

My barber cut my ear. Still, £6 is a bargain in london, even if they are slightly dodgey greeks who leave me with a quif

I just get my mum to do it. Its free and she gets to live out her childhood dream of being a hairdresser. Shame she hates hair now though!
