ehs818 Posted January 19, 2023 Share Posted January 19, 2023 I'm looking for a good place in Central Pattaya to get my hair cut. I'm in my 60's so I'm not looking for a hot trendy stylist. Just needing a basic hair cut. If anyone can suggest a good reliable place, I'd appreciate that. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ozimoron Posted January 19, 2023 Share Posted January 19, 2023 (edited) I like Enjoy hairdressers, on soi Buakhao, very close to Pattaya Klang (central road). 150 baht. They have a mixture of male and females and I don't see much staff turnover. Edited January 19, 2023 by ozimoron 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scubascuba3 Posted January 19, 2023 Share Posted January 19, 2023 Pretty much any barbers on Buakhao 100-150 baht, it's only an issue if you need scissors 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ehs818 Posted January 19, 2023 Author Share Posted January 19, 2023 I found an excellent salon to have my hair cut at today. Inside Caesar Hotel on Second Road, near Soi 8. The ladys name is Rung. Haircut is 100. No need to call for appointment, she's open most weekdays. But you can make an appointment if you want. 081-004-2192 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thecyclist Posted January 20, 2023 Share Posted January 20, 2023 Avoid Soi Buakao, they seem to have a high season surcharge :just a few months ago they were all still 120 Baht, now all up to 150 Baht. There is a very professional one on Chalermprakhiat, coming from Central Pattaya road it is about a km into the Soi on the right side. 100 Baht a haircut.

Furioso Posted January 20, 2023 Share Posted January 20, 2023 (edited) I've got my favorite barber on Soi Buakhao that I'm going to right now. If he's raised his price from 100b-150b I'm going to be p!ssed! Edited January 20, 2023 by Furioso my reason for editing is that I made a mistake that required quick and reliable editing. I'm extremely sorry for any inconvenience I may have caused you or your family. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dddave Posted January 20, 2023 Share Posted January 20, 2023 Before you get your hair cut in any shop, watch for a bit and see if they change or even wipe down tools between customers. Many do not, especially among the B100-150 Soi Buakhao shops. There are some nasty things one can catch from uncleaned equipment, including lice.

One of the worst is toenail fungus from the manicures they do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Supply and demand.....Prior to that there was a bit of competition with close by places advertising low prices... well they will open same same businesses close to each other!
