Ok so the boys had their turn, now we want to hear from our girls.
Are you sick of paying Manhattan prices to just get a decent haircut? Ignoring the frills of color or highlights (aka Pandora’s Box), a girl should have options to get her hair trimmed without having to dish out 75 bucks or more. Let’s be honest, hair can mean everything to a girl and also serve as one of our more defining physical attributes. So yes, a haircut can make or break you, but should not have to empty your wristlet. Also, you don’t want to be the one to show up at a silent meal and have to mime a defense of that awful mop on your head… it’s already going to be awkward enough.
So, we’re putting together another barber shop guide, but this time for the ladies. So let us know, where does a money-conscious gal go to get her mane molded in the BK? Let us know!

I second Maria's hair salon in Greenpoint. I've been going there for over two years and they haven't given me a bad haircut yet. I usually just get a cut and style and it's $20 + tip. And they're all super friendly.
Heard that Badlands does $40 cuts if it's with a junior stylist. Same is true for Slope Suds.
Bumble & Bumble Model Project. FREE cut and color (they give you an assortment of pre-selected styles to choose from). They're all professional stylists just learning those specific cuts, and I've never walked out of there miserable. And you can't beat the price.
Woah. Do people really think $60 is a cheap hair cut in Brooklyn? yes to maria's hair!!! they are awesome. if you don't do a blow dry, it is under $20.
Seriously! 60 bucks?! That ain't cheap.
La Belle Unisex in Park Slope!
I'm another YES to Maria's in Greenpoint. Incredibly inexpensive and consistently excellent haircuts. I always make sure to tip very well because the service they are providing at such a low price is seriously a gift. It's cash only and often very busy but you can call ahead and make an appointment. They accept walk-ins but you may have to wait a while.
Marias in Greenpoint. Katia. 20 bucks + tip.
To the person who said you don't have to tip the owner-- what is WRONG with you?
I go to Astor Place hair! It's not only for guys getting an old-school barber cut. There's a lot of lady hairstylists that do a great job and for cheap (in comparison to other Manhattan shops). My stylist shampoos, cuts, and blows-out my curly hair for $50. It's also quite fun to hear these barbers chat and gossip around you.
Super Cuts?! Why is everyone so anti chain hair cut (beside that its nice to support local businesses) I feel like there is a stigma. I get a nice cut pretty much every time! Of course there are bad stylists and good stylists at these places, but for only $20 ($7 if you go after 7 on a weekday) it can't be beat! I like the one in Brooklyn Heights!
