What price a haircut?

The salon looks lovely and is populated by young rather attractive guys and gals.

Similar experience in Dawei, Myanmar. I walk past a hairdresser spot several staff I would like to get to know better, so I go in for a shave. It turns out they never shaved a foreigner, probably never shaved anyone. They find a razor (mechanical, knife or blade) and for lack of shaving cream use shampoo. My worst shave ever, not cheap either, and I didn't get to know any of them closer.

But tell us about the cost of a haircut please. Here in Phnom Penh I can get a decent haircut (saloon, aircon) for 1.50 USD and a friend who has been here for longer says the cheapest he found in Phnom Penh was 1.25 USD. One of my aspirations in life is to get a haircut for 1 USD or less.

Well don’t come to the UK then. After shopping around for weeks I had a basic haircut last week and it cost £13 (just under 600 baht) and that was OAP rates. The normal rate here is now £16 (about 750bt).

The next one will be in Thailand at 100 baht...no matter how long off that is!
