Getting a haircut (Male)

Hi

Have been in India for the last two months and am in dire need of getting my hair cut. I dont want to go to the fanciest place there is and shell out an absolute fortune, but i dont want my hair butchered either.

Any reccomendations and estimated cost would be very much appreciated. I leave Mumbai on the 23rd March.

Thanks.

The 5-star hotels usally all have a very good and hygenic barbershop. You'll
pay more but get what you want. I don't think it would be more than 200-300rps - cheap by most western standards. And you get an obilgatory head wrenching .... I mean massage to boot!!!

Juice was being refurbished,b ut Bblunt was perfect. 450 is expensive for India, but i got exactly what i wanted and it was as good as the place i used to pay 20 quid to get it done in Manchester.

Thank you very much, its so nice to have shortish hair again, haha.
