took me 54 weeks to get my hair to the state it is now, I don't want an incompetent barber anywhere near my beautiful hair.GSM8 wrote:Suggest avoiding the $5/cut places though (such as in Geylang), unless one is in agreeance with the spirit of the difference between a good haircut and a bad haircut being 2 weeks
QB House is $12 but there are plenty of copy cat establishments which charge $10. I personally like them, but cuts can be a little hit and miss. Last time I was engrossed in whatever they were showing on the screen and left with less hair than I was expecting.JR8 wrote:the lynx wrote:Or $10 in some outlets.JR8 wrote:Go to 'QB house' (a chain) - $12.... simple.
Don't know. Their site says $12, which is also what I pay.

It used to be $10 until c2009 when it increased. Same time they dropped their promo line 'a $10 haircut in 10 minutes'.
Either way, best take change for $12 just in case.
Maybe I'm lucky with my local QB, I go there often (or long) enough that even the rotating staff know what I want. Either way, I briefly remind them anyway.bgd wrote:QB House is $12 but there are plenty of copy cat establishments which charge $10. I personally like them, but cuts can be a little hit and miss.

Few years ago I was posted to a project near Ipoh Malaysia (wasn't based in Singapore at that time, so not familiar with regional nuances). Roadside in a small town along the drive to project site was a Tamil Malaysian hole in the wall barber shop that I once got a haircut from, RM 6, it was so-so. Next time I stopped there it was under renovation so I looked across the road where there a Chinese Malaysian barber shop. The Tamil Malaysian noticed it and warned "come back here tomorrow, don't go there, chinaman will cheat you, ah!". Well, I wanted to get done with the cut so went across the street anyway and got one for RM 5 and it turned out quite decent. That statement made me chuckle for long after though - chinaman will cheat you, ah!Max Headroom wrote:The only people I allow near my hair in Sing are the Indian barber shop dudes. I've been going to just two places in all my years here and they've been doing a superb job. But then, I tell them exactly how I want it done, yes.
