There are plenty of barbershops in my area which charge $50 for a haircut but there are many more that charge $18. Having been to a selection of both the difference is mostly the level of interior decoration and not the quality of the haircut. The choice being between a $50 haircut and having your girlfriend do it at home is a false one.
- Ballas 5y agoI'd easily pay $50 for the convenience of having it done at home - easily worth it just for the time saved. If your girlfriend can do it for you, that's worth a lot more than the money saved. So in my view once you have established that your girlfriend can do it, that is the better choice regardless of price.
- holler 5y agothis brings up something I've wondered about, why not start a gig barber app? you sign up and someone shows up at your house/work/wherever and cuts your hair
- detaro 5y agoThis kind of app has the problem that people would use it 1-3 times and then just directly call whoever they liked to make the next appointment, cutting the app out of the deal.
- Sylamore 5y agoIn the US, State occupational licensing laws for one. You can't cut someone else's hair without a license in most states. In my state you can't even dog/cat sit for someone for money unless you are going to their house because you need a kennel license to have them stay at your house if they aren't your pet.
