The recommended tipping standard for barbers is 15-20% of the total cost of the haircut. This means that if your cut costs $40, you should tip between $6-$8. Of course, tipping is always at your discretion. Feel free to tip more or less, depending on those considerations above.

The average men's haircut price is about $29 across the United States, according to data gathered from our stylists. However, depending on your specific region, service, and a variety of other factors, your next appointment may cost anywhere between $15 to $42.

How Often Should You Get a Haircut? Depending on your current hairstyle, you should be looking at visiting your barber anywhere from every 2 to 6 weeks. Now, that's a pretty big range, and it really depends on your own personal preference and the type of cut you have.

While barbering can be a rewarding career, it can also be physically and mentally demanding. Long hours of standing, high levels of concentration, and dealing with difficult customers can lead to stress and burnout. Some barbers may quit due to these challenges, or because they want to pursue different career paths.
