Cheapest haircut?
Anyone know where is the cheapest haircut near McMaster? No, I don't want to cut my own hair caused I have no hands.

Go to Vince's, it's $18 but Vince remembers you even if you went there once, a year ago. Guess that counts for something.

Are you male or female? What sort of cut are you looking for? How far from McMaster are you willing to travel?
Basically, if you're male and don't need much done, there are some places on Main St that are pretty cheap.
If you're female and need something basic, it'll be a bit more expensive but still not too bad. If you need something more complicated, you might be better off paying a little bit more.

Google maps can also help you locate places, you can then look into them further to see if they're in your price range.

I assume you are male since a woman wouldn't ask this question. Pay 23-27 dollars for a real stylist at a salon... $7 more is worth it for a cut by someone that knows what they're doing when you're going to walk around with it for an entire month.

Maverik (?) in Jackson square (near timmies) charges 23$ for a full awesome hair cut, if you're a mac student I think they discount it to 15$, you get anything you want done and a wash/style... haven't really found a place that beats the quality for the price.

I would go to Vince, The First choice experience was very quick (like 4 mins, faster haircut of my life) and unprofessional.

Vince is easily the best. Whenever I go in, he always remembers what haircut he gave me, which makes getting a haircut super easy.

Vince sounds just like my barber in Brampton, he's amazing as well. He charges <$10 for a haircut as well, so it's dirt cheap.

Screw Vince. Go to Mike at Campus Barber- right across the road from the Booster Juice.

http://campusbarber.ca/Services.html

18 bucks for a student cut and a great guy to talk sports with. it is also refreshing to see a young guy cutting hair and not some 80 year old with the shakes.

Forget everyone above, go to Emerson Studio if you're a guy. Guy is a pro. I go there for my haircuts even though my someone in my family is a barber.

He is on Emerson and in front of the west end. Yellow Hummer.

You'll be happy with this decision.

Emerson Studio only charges like $13 I think. Funny guy, he also used to be a pro wrestler.

I would say if anything avoid Campus Barber. If it is your first time there you are likely to be pawned off on this 60 year old Italian man who has no idea what he is doing. They also make you pay cash, kinda sketchy.
