How often do you get your hair cut

How often do you get a haircut? And how much do you pay for one?

I get my hair cut about every 10 days or so, so about 3 times a month. And it's $19 + tip so I usually just give my barber $25.

i'm growing it out atm so I can just get a mate to trim it every few weeks when it's long, but last haircut I had was at the start of February. Before that though i'd just grow it a bit long, then get it cut short again, and over and over, which was about every 2 or 3 months.

My hair is relatively long so I only get it cut around once every 6-8 months. I actually haven't been to a barber for a while though since my sister has been doing a much better job

Once every 6 months, though once every 6 weeks is recommended with my type of hair. I don't like it when people touch my head.

Most barbers charge 25 Euros for a haircut.

Every 15 days or so. My hair grows pretty fast and gets kinda long so to not look girly, I make my hair spiky like this https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/736x/d2/c8/a9/d2c8a97df1474ade422d4194293bfc12.jpg except more spiky towards the front and less towards the back.

Its not necessary a bad thing. The problem is that the US has this bizarre culture where tipping is expected. It should never be expected, it should be a bonus that someone gives out of their own free will, not pressured into it.

Say I go to a restaurant and I see ok the menu says $20. At the end I should be paying $20, no more no less. Now if I feel like giving something extra, then thats ok, my choice but having this culture where it is expected is complete bs.

Tipping in the US is a scam really by employers. I dont live in the US but its weird how North America has this culture still, where most of the world doesn't.

As for price.. there's this one salon I go to that's $80 or so. This time I went to a different salon and they only took $20 and did the same job real well. o: Man, I feel robbed. Heh. C:[/quote]

1-1.5 months

Also note that I've NEVER visited a real qualified barber. My dad is the person that always cuts my hair, and he isn't that bad in it (although he has his screw up moments).

[quote=skyenets]Like once every three months if I don't forget? Sometimes once every half year. I don't know any barbers in this city/country so I rather just wait till I visit home and can get it cut with the barber I know does a good job. Besides, it's too expensive to get it cut here. Back at home my mom pays.

@xmaplelegend: I tip the barber in the Netherlands. Not an insane amount but like, 2 euros or something. They do my fringe for free whenever I want so it seems appropriate to tip.[/quote]

>for free
>tip

Damn, humans are weird.

My bangs is once a month. My hair is never since I'm growing it long. 0 dollars cause I cut my own hair. My hair is crap anyways. It always frizzes up unless I use a straightener.

Usually a year to a year and a half. I recently got my hair cut in July and it was longgg. (The last time I had cut it was February of the other year.)

2-3 times a year.

My stylist says she'll trim my bangs for free but I am really bad about just going in to get my bangs cut. So I go through phases of fring bangs->side bangs->back to fringe.

Not that often. Maybe twice a year? I'm trying to grow my hair out, and it reaches about the middle of my back now. I really should get a trim like every two months
to make sure split ends don't slow my hair growth, but whenever I go, they always chop off way more hair than I would like. I pay about $15-$25 depending on
where I go.

Not too often, I'm not too keen on spending too much on royal hair coupons so I stick with a style.

I got it cut last over a month ago, but I have wanted to get it cut again for a few weeks.
I used to have bangs and hair down to my shoulders (for six year actually....people rarely saw my forehead, to the point where people often asked me to lift up my bangs, and I didn't want to), but then I accidentally got it cut too short in June, so I've changed my hairstyle to just be combed back, but still kinda long, and a little shorter on the sides.

I have the typical "Korean" haircut (two block undercut I think?) So I prefer to cut it every time my hair reaches over half an inch...but I'm lazy so I don't go as often as I should
