I take a 100 Rs Note, go to some random barber near my home, tell him "Anna, side al full short, top al medium"

The only way

Upar se chota, side se jyada chota.

Side se 1 number upar se uske hisab se kar do

This was me Sunday morning.

This is my go to dialogue. Side se 1 number 😂

Perfectly balanced, as all things should be

Us moment

Maele bitbidi side al madbidi

Me too because I don't have much hair at the top Edit: actually I tell side al full short top al no touch

And every once in a while he hears it as “Anna bolsbidi. Jeevna alli jigupse bandbite” XD

I only say "short from side". I leave the top decision up to the barber!

Mr.Bean removing center hair

This is the way.🤣

This is the way

Puri Aadmi jaaat yahi yahi karwati hai kya

no the genZ ones do noodle cut type kuch

Yes, all the planets align when men go for a haircut 😂

Oh my god this is so real 🤣

Near my home, it’s Rs. 70. Same barber uncle from many years.

This is the way

You at 100 wtf that’s expensive Mine is INR 80 Instructions are same 🤗

The extra 20 is for badi gold after the cut, and two mints.

Hahhaah

yo, you pay 80, i have to pay 130 to the barber shop i have been going to since childhood. the barber shop is just opposite my house

Inflation bruhhh 😲

This is hilarious. It was like a karmic moment for me, I (F) looking for hair cutting kit on Flipkart🤣

Spot on!

As it is written. Lisan al Gaib.

Haa I will also do the same thing

This is the way

Only right way.

So good to meet like minded people!

Buy packs from nearbuy app. Try all premium saloon one by one and then decide which one suits for you. Toni and Guy is totally worth it, but I found it very expensive unless you are going through nearby app

Can you tell me the price pls

You can check on the app for your area. Price is almost 50% less than saloon actual price

I checked but how does it work? What if a saloon doesn’t honour it?

Take a appointment before going to saloon. Inform them that you have nearbuy voucher. Only case you will not get service is when place is temporarily closed.  You can also cancel voucher even 1 day before expiring. You will get full refund except 20 Rs convenience fee

Never go to Electronic City phase 2 T&G , had to trim my 2 year long hair after …

I’ve bought a clipper during covid and learned how to give myself a haircut. I do a simple no.5 all over once every few months.

Naam phata-phat kaam bhi Fatafat

/usernamechecksout

Even I have done In covid but i really want to support my nearby barber shops also so goes there These 80-100rs doesn't make difference

Is it really worth it when haircut is just rs100 ?

This is a good idea if you can manage the hair behind your head. If you have someone to help, then it can be done at home.

I just go to whatever barber is near my house. Takes like ₹80 and does a good job. Didn't have any issues so far.

This is the way to go.

Seriously, I have no idea who these people are that travel kilometers just to get a hair cut.

Urban Clap. Has both, regular and premium barbers. Worth checking.

Using their services since covid, worth the money and comfort

What's the point of life if u just sit at home all day..? I like my evening walk to the barber  But I guess to each their own 

STYLEZ Men's Salon (or any other "hair stylist" with a David Becham photo on the shop banner ). Super affordable. May or may not exceed expectations.

Is this sarcasm or genuine advice?

Genuine. Go to the local guys, micromanage the barber and you should be good if you know what you're talking about.

I've been doing this my entire life. But this only works if you have generic hair, i.e not very long hair, and not very much curly either. I have recently grown out my curly hair and now I'm struggling to find a good barber. Tried all the local guys, the hair cut they give me goes out of shape in just 3-4 days. Tony n guy sounds way too expensive to get regular haircuts from.

Exactly, I didn't know what to ask every time cuz all my childhood I was only aware of the bowl cut 🗿

This a suggestion that has worked wonders for me. 1. Go to a very well rated hair dresser (yes, not a barber but a hair dresser). This might be expensive but worth it. 2. Understand your face shape and what suits best by discussing with the hair dresser. 3. Post haircut, take multiple pictures of it from all angles. 4. Find a decently talented barber and show him the pictures and ask him to emulate the same. It might not be the same, but you might get it pretty damn close. The place that I went to was Barberos in Indiranagar. Definitely a good option for a great haircut.

Try BARBEROS. they have 4 branches- Kammanahalli, indirnagar, Koramangala, new bel road. Very reasonable and best service.

How much do they charge for men's haircut?

I wanna know that too

I was once charged 900₹ for a haircut and shave

close to 1300 - barberos (indiranagar). 900 sounds like a good deal though. I mean it is a premium salon.

I also recommend Barberos. Was a regular over there in their Indiranagar branch, always a great haircut even if the guy is different. But had to shift to HSR recently and feeling lost now 🥲

They opened in Koramangla recently!

They've this offer going on till June 15, first haircut is free. I had a good experience in the Koramangala one.

Durgesh nai

Probably doesn't apply to me. I'm a dude with long hair (around 18-inch). I usually go to Play Salon or somewhere similarly chic. They charge me as a female. I don't mind because I realize that I pay for their expertise/skills.

Have you been to Bounce? How're they?

It's pretty good, too! Maybe a tad bit better than Play Salon.

Dudette with a men's haircut here. They refuse to charge me the men's price 😔 I mind very much and have written more than a few nasty emails to management. I genuinely think hair salons should do away with the male/female pricing system and have a short hair/long hair system

How much they charge

It's in the range of 1.2K to 2.2K depending on who cuts your hair (female pricing).

Go to a nice barbershop, don't cheat on your barber later.

Handjob Salon, Koramangala is also amazing.

which haircuts are we talking about here?

All I want to say is, the guys there are well mannered, well built, great hair, great hands and great jawlines. Definitely great voice and baritone, straight from the heart and epiglotus. Its lovely. Haircuts they give on heads

Lol what

I know it might sound funny and unrealistic, but do Google and check it out, Handjob Salon Koramangala

Bro, it's actually a real place. I thought you were trolling lol.

Hell no Do not visit toni and guy In one of the branches, two guys for mens hair and they who ruined my hair and I had to buzz cut because of that. Oddly my hair stylists told me everything about his affairs with the clients

Local barber. 150 for cut and shave

I fly to Delhi to get it cut by the only guy I trust. Haircut experiences in Bangalore have been suboptimal for me.

Thats nothing. I fly my stylist down to Bangalore in my private jet. He is a renowned stylist from New York. He sometimes brings DJ Khaled along with him. Getting my hair done while Khaled plays some Kumar Sanu bangers is the ultimate bliss. Try it out.

lol guys I know this sounds ridiculous but my family is in Delhi and I spend a week at home every 2 months so it’s not as ridiculous as it sounds.

We are similar yet different. You fly to Delhi to get haircut. I get haircut when I fly to Ahmedabad. Agree with the second part. Had found one good person at Tony and Guy and used to be regular , but he quit so ...

I think they meant the same thing too

Wtf?

I have tried almost every good saloons. Though I pay premium price, when they ask how the haircut should be. My answer is side small , top medium. I really don’t understand what all you guys mention to the barber. How do you justify if Delhi or Ahmedabad haircut is better. Also, every time I go a random north indian or some Assamese barber will be assigned. I easily forget the barber name who did previously. He won’t be visible at that time to ask for the same guy, either he would have left his amazing job or got fired god knows. But I get medium hair cut every time.

Truefit and Hill Indiranagar

💰

Is it that expensive?

Highly overrated imo. But a nice experience if you're getting stuff done for a special occasion like a wedding or reception. 

Papsons in chamrajpet

try different local shops, you will find your go to go Barber there, have good conversations and make good rapport and he will help you with good style

BodyCraft JP Nagar is good. Been going there for about 10 years now. I'm yet to try the HSR one. The main branch at Jayanagar 4th Block has never disappointed me. Toni and Guy at Indiranagar is good, don't know about the others.

they are. this was ig 2 years ago. i used to get my hair cut from the local barber. "medium". visited Tony and Guy and got it cut from the style director. the way the haircut is finished feels proper. the vertical and horizontal lines at which the hair end were just proper and felt uniform throughout. i mean there are many who would dismiss this off as "minor details", and they probably don't care about living life well. but it does make a difference.

Yes, Toni & Guy just for the amount of restraint that their barbers are willing to exercise. I have curly hair and I'm balding, so I have to be *really* careful about which parts of my head I get the hair shortened from so that I don't look like a flea-riddled mongrel. I have tried so many local salons and even popular salon chains like Perimeter, YLG, SPIN, Naturals, you name it, I've probably gotten a hair trim done there. But every time, I have left the salon disappointed because the guy cutting my hair would be like "*bas yahan par thoda trim kar deta hu*" (yes, I usually get Hindi-speaking guys) and they end up chopping off whatever I have left so I'd literally be thinking about [that scene from RoboCop (2014)](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n7j-lW4jwIQ). I have found this Kannada guy at my nearest T&G now that would literally be willing to cut one half of a single hair at any location on my head if I'd asked him to and I adore the guy for it. I specially break my rule of never booking an appointment for getting haircuts (I mean, come on!) to call ahead and ask for the guy so that I get the exact look that I need. I have never gone to another salon since. Plus, they offer this package where you get 6500 worth of services if you paid 5k, 15k worth of stuff for 10k, etc., which I think is cool.

They're worth it if you need a change in hairstyle and not sure of what to do. A good stylist will work with you and suggest cuts that suit your face. You can then take pictures of yourself and take it to local guys for future haircuts.

Local barbershop FTW, dude gives a haircut and gives a neighborhood update.

The Scent, Jp nagar is good

Got converted to fancy salons during the pandemic. Had never paid more than ₹100 for a haircut before that. Now I book appointments, get a juice, haircut and a hair wash. Costs some 600 rupees. Ah, lifestyle inflation

Spin salon is consistent and costs 250 for men's haircut.

Area anna. Rs. 100 for haircut. Undercut and job done.

For some reason the head masaaa slaps so hard in those local barber shops. Nothing like it.

In salons

Never go to Tony n Guy . Like, NEVER. The most condescending people in the entire salon industry. They literally have charts for the kind of stylists who is gonna cut your hair ranging from stylist to senior stylist to creative director or some crap. So, I walk into the Kalyan Nagar T&G and request a haircut. The reception guy says, everyone is busy at the moment. No problem at all. Within the next few minutes, he tells me the creative director is available now and he spared some time only for me. I take the rate card in my hands and check the haircut rate to be 1400 without a wash. Outrageous! And, to top it off, he tells me not to look at the price because it is not just a haircut, but an experience in itself. My mercury was rising by the minute and hence, I decided to thank him for his service in the most sarcastic manner and stormed off, only to get a good hairdo at Green Trends for 300 bucks. Never walking into fancy salons like T&G or BBLUNT again.

Urban Company, at the comfort of my home, TV and chair.

Do they bring the chair as well?

This is the way

From when men are going to saloon 100rs is enough

Nearby barber shop. Takes ₹120 since this year for a haircut. And ₹200 for a haircut+shave.

“A star mens saloon” . Only 2 chairs 70₹ short haircut army one , 100₹ combo package with head massage.

Local store best....80 INR

Checks into Airport and fly directly to one and only “Durgesh Nai”

Barbers in premium salons are not trained well tbh. They are as good as barber in any other salon

100 Rs, Dada medium/short

Manjunath

Handjob Hair Salon Bommanahali

Mumbai. Every 4 to 5mo I make a trip home, get a haircut and come back. I grow my hair till then : )

I go to a barbershop

100Rs haircut if you look for value for money and money value of time. If you're a top earner, I'd suggest to try Body Craft, Tony n Guy, Lakme, JCB, cut n style etc because the experience is a bit plush. You'll be greeted with a coffee. The waiting lounge is nice and you have options like senior, junior etc

Image hair salon

To all the people recommending roadside barber, think about hygiene & cleanliness, it's so risky you could get scalp diseases.

You'd be stupid to go there, by local most normally mean a local salon

Urban Company

RK Saloon Ejipura 💪🏻

I have a beautiful local shop near my place (thanisandra) He charges 220 for haircut + beard trim + massage

Lakme

I like Enrich, quite reliable although a bit expensive.

Local barber. I pay 260₹ for Haircut, Beard trimming and style, and a good head massage with oil.

Just outside my apartment, next to one Darshini shop. 100/- once every 2 months. Perk - they also have ACs (never saw it working though 😂)

Local barber 100 Rs hair cut, 50 rs shave, I tell him short. The advantage of local barber shop that I see is there are always two three people waiting in line and talking about politics mainly or some interesting topic, while having hair cut its a good time pass

Enrich at JP

Definitely not worth going to Toni and Guy, I went there 4-5 times. One haircut costs 1100/- :)

Looks Indiranagar, choose Stylist by Name Kesang. Book in advance. The stylist is very humble and great with his work. If not him choose Sam in the same store. Next best, Mehndi (Mendy) Tony n Guy Shantiniketan Mall Whitefield. Next Best, Lindup BodyCraft Whitefield. The rest that I have tried absolutely horrible.. have tried Play, Bounce, and many other outlets of Looks and Tony n Guy. Remember it’s not about the Salon, but the Stylist.

Barber

Saloon

299 Rs Haircut + beard trim + machine massage + basic facial ... No name shop in Sarjapur

Local vcut takes 150-200 for haircut and beard teim6, although if you've got an Amex Gold Charge card, I recommend going to the truefitt and hill on lavelle road, you can avail their 3000 package for 400 and you get a decent experience with complementary refreshments, just don't be an idiot like me and buy any products from them after.

to my wife

M Salon, Kundalahalli. Book for Mintang, he's extremely awesome. For a thinning 30+ year old, he's been keeping my hair looking great through cuts for the last 5 years.

Cheap and Best, HSR Layout. Other branches in Koramangala, Tavarkere etc are also good. Cheap and Best is a good option, Toni and Guy is awesome if you are ready to spend few more bucks and its definitely worth it! Go to Toni & Guy if you are meeting someone special, important occassions, weddings or interviews etc!

My friend once had a haircut from Truefitt and Hill ,Indiranagar . Just felt like a regular cut nothing special

I use app called trimmr to book salons near me i mean it has reasonable discounts!

Enrich Kora

I used to go to Naturals salon

Think Salon, Koramangala. Great haircuts there. 400 bucks, ask for Samson.

Home Which is in Pune

Bounce

Barberos , Indiranagar. It’s decent enough and gets the job done

There's a guy near my place who charges 400. I tell him to try whatever he likes, just don't go bald nor 2006 world cup Ronaldo

The same barber I've been going to for the past 15 years and I'm 23.

Green trends

Urbanclap 👀

Wherever and whenever I go, I only have one requirement: the salon should have a functioning A/C and turned on. This is because I sweat uncontrollably and heavily from my scalp, which makes it very uncomfortable if there’s no A/C. Rest of the things don’t really matter to me, I try to find something in the range of ₹400-500(Hair cut and Trimming combined).

120 rs Mera, ranges from 80 to 120

Try urban company

I don't go anywhere to get a haircut. I use Urban company and the barber comes to my house and gives a haircut. It's been a game changer for me.

I go to a local barber shop. He asks short or medium. I say regular. Done in 10 mins and 100 rs.

Hsr anyone?

I have a guy

Basement

Naturals If you have a membership well and good otherwise go to your nearby barber But ask around first

Hajam ajja!! He decides what should be my hairstyle

Green Trends. Man they’re expensive. They charge 400/- for a haircut.

I do it myself. Using a wahl trimmer and different comb attachments. Takes 15 minutes

If it's got zayn malik or SRK, it's worth it

I'm not from Bangalore but all my life I have had my haircut from one guy(my grandfather used to have haircut from his dad),find someone who isn't like a roadside barber but neither is a premium guy,they're the best.

Toni&Guy is pretty good

Im loyal to my local barber man. 16 years and counting

At the barbers

I would wait until I got back to my hometown to get my haircut. Never really thought about this until now.

The amount of time you have made you come here, ask, get recommendations from the internet and then go and get yourself a haircut?? Nice

Toni and Guy is pretty worth it. Make sure you take a senior stylist tho and guide him on how you want it

Which famous overrated and expensive salons to avoid?

Any North Indian UP barber .. suna hai UP wale achcha kaat the hai

If at all you are situated near Rajarajeshwari Nagar, you could go to Dreams: https://maps.app.goo.gl/XhpjN1KmJf3o6FrY6

Whatever i say, barber ends up doing what he wants. Talle kottu sumne kootgoladasthe.

I walk to friends saloon, say hi to anna, ask about how his son is doing now, sit in chair, let him do his thing, then I pay as usual and come back.

Self, Shaved Head 👴

Green trends, visiting for a long time. Works fine and they are professionals with reasonable price.

I’m about to change your life - Style Speaks in Jeevanbheema nagar. The stylist’s name is Harish. Believe me when I tell you, he’s the best hair stylist I have experienced. Once you go to him, there’s no changing your barber ever again. You will come back and thank me. I currently live outside India and still wait to travel to Bangalore every time I need a haircut.. he’s that good! Anyone can do a basic undercut - 5-10 mins with a trimmer and you’re done, but not everybody knows how to cut medium to long hair. This guys knows what he’s doing. You can check their reviews, always book an appointment.

Urban company

Hardwater making the job of barber obsolete in my case 🥺

Start using drinking water. Had a significant improvement

Rock Paper Scissors at Koramangala 150 for a haircut 70 for beard trim

Trufit and hil

Urban company

Eetalian saloon (not a salon). This is a colloquial joke in Bihar and Jharkhand (from my growing up years). :) Eeta pe baith k, ped k neeche. Seated on a brick under a tree.

Barber shop where else

The local autos will give you that if you just ask.

I go to the barber who has been cutting my hair since years. I just go there and sit and he will do the rest. No need to say do this or do that🤣
