Do you tip your barber/hairdresser

[PITA]

your one of them creepy types... what you get her for xmas , sussies ??!

You immediately thinks sussies but COYBL25 is the creepy one! Ok.

I think if I tipped my barber he’d think I was coming onto him.

For years he charged £7.50. You got 2.50 thrust into your hand before you even handed across the tenner.

This was possibly a tactic on a Saturday morning to get an extra tenner out of hungover lads, back when barber shops were proper and had FHM to read.

 

[Osamabindiesel]

Yes. The gesture alone often makes their day.

Wtf!!!

She worked in the hairdresser's where my missus went to get her hair done mate, and my missus always booked her to do her hair when she went there. The girl then decided to leave the hairdresser's to work for herself, and because she had done the missus' hair for a fair few years in the shop and she was always happy with how she done it, she decided to blow the shop out and carry on using this girl, so we just book her in every 6 weeks.

‘Are you looking at that porn again?’ My dad would bellow from the barbers chair. ‘No, dad, I’m reading Top Gear’ I’d reply feebly as I read about the fuel efficiency of a Rover 75 ‘Well bloody get looking at that porn! I’m not raising a sissy!’ My Dad would retort as he chain smoked then made an offbeat remark about domestic abuse in relation to a comment on the radio.

Better days, better days.

I seriously couldn't imagine trying to get a hair cut with half a stiffy on ...

 

[Connor]

Nah, she'd never take it.

*Awaits lads, lads, lads responses.

 

[No8Bally]

Nope. No need . You have to have hair to go to a barbers!

 

[Woolverhampton_Blue]

I don't tip but I do sweep up afterwards, then make her a nice cuppa.

My wife cuts my hair

I give your wife my tip after she's finished cutting my hair.

Then she makes me a nice cuppa.

You as well mate, she makes a cack cup of tea though.

 

[LEONARD]

I qualify for the Oldie rate of £7, I give them a tenner, and say 'keep the change'.

 

[Encoder]

Yes, but I might stop as these barbers who take about 45 to do the back and sides can do one.

 

[Woolverhampton_Blue]

Agreed. Always puts too much milk in.

 

[summerisle]

Depends how much crap they talk whilst cutting my hair.
