How much do people spend on Haircuts? Most places around Dublin now over €15? Closer to €20 with a tip?

Grafton popping up in towns around the place in Dublin , a mate told me in Malahide it's €22 a haircut . Kilkenny town has one and I hear ones opening in Skerries . €22 for a haircut is madness . I was always tipping for a haircut and I'm not gonna bother anymore because it's dear enough and all they are doing in 10 mins work . Also the fact some lil bollox gave me a haircut that brought me back to my wild days of the 90s with a step style kind of cut .

A lot of "cool" barbers popping up with pool tables, beer and fussball etc. Who is interested in this?

I love pool and beer but partaking in those activities in a barbers implies that you're only going to be waiting for ages which I'm not prepared to do for a haircut. Who wants to hang around a barbers all day?

It's only 8.50 in that place on Abbey Street whose name I can't remember and they're quick too. A tenner including tip.

Then again, I'm missing most on top and it's only ever a three all over, so I might only be getting charged the "back and sides" rate.

Yeah, was a Sunday after a heavy Saturday - Decided to find out what all the fuss about Oxygen bars was (Who says that Vegas doesn't take money from the stupid people !) and the bird goes "Do you want a head massage ?". Feeling a tad ropey, I said "why not" - Spine tingling it was ! Felt pretty good after the whole experience so went down to El Diablos for Happy Hour !

Didn't you suffer from insomnia? Are you now saying all you need to do to fall asleep is to take your glasses off?

Ended up "splashing out" - €18 which is a bit up on the usual €13. It was a http://www.barbiere.ie" rel="nofollow - bit of a fancier spot . They gave me a iPad when I got there with a load of pictures to see if there's someone I'd like a haircut to be based on. Not quite a hipster spot, I'd say more gentleman spot.

Place here does it for E6. I used to go to her for a while but she was a bit light on tools.

It was one trimmer for any hair cut style and little to no shaping with a scissors.
Used to like her because you could be in an out under 10 minutes, and 5 minutes probably was the height of chair time.
 
One day she was closed so I went to another place in the town over, cost E10 but far superior so never went back to E6 woman.
 
I miss the cleavage being pressed against my back but swings and roundabouts and all that.
