Shoeboat Posted February 28, 2013 Share Posted February 28, 2013 I used to live in On Nut which had a great barbers. I only ever require a head shave but would get shoulder massage, wet shave, the works for 70 baht - which I always considered too low and would happily always tip. I now live in Nana, and the barbers on Soi 11 have a bad attitude and charge 250 baht. I don't expect anywhere on or near central Sukhumvit to be 70 baht but is there anywhere that is closer to what I am looking for between Phrom Phong and Ploen Chit?

n0mad Posted February 28, 2013 Share Posted February 28, 2013 i haven't lived in Thailand for several years but i used to go to barbers on soi Thaonglor, from memory less than 150m from Sukhumvit but again don't quote me. they were cheap as well maybe 100 baht. however as i have not been back to them for several yrs i cannot confirm if they are still in business.

Shoeboat Posted February 28, 2013 Author Share Posted February 28, 2013 Anything walking distance from Nana bts would be perfect. I'm wondering if there's anything on soi 8. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tw25rw Posted February 28, 2013 Share Posted February 28, 2013 Go down to the MRT station. The barbers there is the only place I have ever been to that vacuums the bristles of your head rather than blow them down your neck. And they do a decent job for 100b.

Groongthep Posted February 28, 2013 Share Posted February 28, 2013 I know many will scream bloody murder for me suggesting this place, but the barbers at the shop at the Grace Hotel do a great job. They are used to some very finicky customers from middle eastern countries and hence take their time and do the job right. Your best bet is to bring a picture of yourself with your hair cut the way you like it. They'll match it spot on. They charge 150 baht but it's well worth it. I won't go anywhere else.

Spaniel Posted March 1, 2013 Share Posted March 1, 2013 Procede down Sukhumvit Soi 23 about 200 m. On the left, before you reach Soi Cowboy, you will find a great barbershop. In the front of the shop the owner sells/repairs watches. I think the price is abouy B70. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tw25rw Posted March 1, 2013 Share Posted March 1, 2013 There's a barbers in Phra Khanong station, but my experience there was poor. I've been using the one in Sukhumvit MRT for about 5 years and now look forward to my cheap haircut with no scratchy shirt afterwards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kurnell Posted March 1, 2013 Share Posted March 1, 2013 I just want to find a barber that uses a trimmer and guard for a quick short back & sides haircut rather than those that use a comb which tends to layer your hair so that you walk out with your head shaped like a light bulb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

breadbin Posted March 12, 2013 Share Posted March 12, 2013 There used to be a place next to Chequers on Soi 4. This is going back to 2002 but was decent for a haircut. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
