In most of the world, a haircut averages at $5.
- watwut 2y agoNot in Europe or any other developed country. Haircut is that cheap when worker lives on super low wage.
- BrandoElFollito 2y agoIn France the average man cut is between 15€ and 30€. You can find cuts at 8-10€ in poorer areas. For reference, a visit to a family doctor is 30€, 28€ is reimbursed (you pay 2€ effectively)
- miohtama 2y agoThe cost of goods does not change. It just means someone else is paying the 28 EUR part
- BrandoElFollito 2y agoYes you are right of course - my main point was about the cost of an MD visit. The reimbursement part was just to flex about how our health insurance is good :) (unrelated to the discussion)
- PoignardAzur 2y ago> You can find cuts at 8-10€ in poorer areas. It's not about poor areas. My city is middle-class AF and there's a 8€ barber there. It's just that they have a list of exactly one haircut they apply to everybody, and a few more shaving styles.
- BrandoElFollito 2y agoSure, this will depend on the region. I am west of pairs (middle-class AF as well :)) and the cheapest haircut is 13€ in a somehow shady place without any fancy information about the kind of haircuts. Barbers are crazy priced (because hipsters and whatnot) and the typical chain (Jean Louis David) is 30€ or so.
