At our Papanui cutting bar a clipper cut is $20, a men's scissor style cut is $30, a ladies' style cut is $43 and kids under 16 are $25. Those are real prices from our board, not a from-price with an asterisk. Here is the full picture and what actually changes the number.
CLIPPER CUT $20 · MEN'S STYLE $30 · FADE $38 · LADIES STYLE $43 · KIDS U16 $25
What makes a cut cost more
Three things move the price on any board in town: time, tools and extras.
- Clippers vs scissors. An all-over clipper cut is the fastest job in the shop, which is why it is the cheapest. Scissor work takes longer, so a style cut costs more.
- Fades. A good fade is precision work with more blending time, which is why ours is $38 rather than $20.
- Extras. A wash is $15, a beard trim is $15, a ladies' blow dry is $35. Colour depends on what you want: BYO colour is $60, ten foils are $65 and extra foils are $8 each.
