Cheap Cuts

Know how wherever you go in the U.S. you can find those really really really low price budget haircutting salons?

The ones you go to when you’re between jobs, hard pressed for cash, watching a budget or just flat out C-H-E-A-P?

Guess what? Israel has them too. In the form of student stylists over at the Shuki Zikri salon schools. The actual Shuki salons will run you upwards of $100 depending on what you’re in for. But the students? C-H-E-A-P. 35 shekels (less than $10) c-h-e-a-p.

The Big Felafel blogged about it

Once they shampoo and massage your head (my favorite part), they take you to a chair, pull out their handy dandy ghetto haircutting kit, and start sectioning off your hair, about 40 times until you beg them to move on to the cutting part. Maybe that’s what they focused on in their classes that day?! And not to worry, if they mess up and you notice it’s a little uneven, their teacher comes over and fixes everything.

No more excuses for letting the hair get shabby!

  2. BTW, haircuts performed by the instructors will run you 170 sheks — which for a woman’s haircut is not so bad at all.
