modern barbershops

[silver56uk]

Do modern barbershops cut ladies /girls hair these days? I know a lot of women are getting tired of paying high prices in salons when they only want a trim at times. Has any ladies here ever tried a barbers before or was taken to a barbers whey you were younger. Id be interested in any stories you have thankyou.

Well they probably could if you don't mind how you look. Whenever I go with my partner, the only tools the barber seems to have is an electric trimmer. They seem only to do number 1,2, 3 or 4 cropped style.

I have had my fringe cut a couple of times at the barbers, when desperate! Once was when my mother-in-law had had a heart attack, so had to cancel my hair appointment (father-in-law needed looking after aswell as visiting mum-in-law in hospital), so I popped into the barbers where I take my sons and he cut it for me. I don't think he even charged me, which was very nice of him.

Stylists spend 2y basic training but a top T&G/L'Oreal/Wella trained stylist takes further 4y. Google the acadamys to see costs of training. Most salon owners have superior qualifications to barbers. That's what you're paying for! U can cut your hair at home free.....and pull out your own teeth to save on dentists.

If your hair was styled in a salon ur fringe would be trimmed free or �5 minimum (stops clients coming in everyday for a hair out of place). Fringes are point-cut today with hair-scissors. It may seem little work but your hair must be swept up, gowns laundered etc etc (salon costs).

p.s. Your new hair style will last for 6 weeks before you need the cut again. Divide the price by 6 and you have cost per week to look well-groomed.

The image you portray is the destiny you choose!

i honestly couldn't see a women with a good stylish haircut going anywhere near a barbers, to most women their hair is their crowning glory.

on the other hand, a barbers in birmingham used to only employ gorgeous young blond women to cut the mens hair and they have queues around the block!
