#1 Post at 20-5-2012 19:30  Profile P.M.  Font size: S M L Haircuts and WGs 20 years ago, I worked in an economic consulting firm in the US.  This was before I had done much international travel.  One day a bunch of us were sitting around the coffee machine, drinking coffee and chatting.  All of a sudden, one of the company Directors (who did do a lot of international travel) said, "You want to know something interesting?  The price of a woman is roughly 10 times the price of a haircut the world over..." I thought this was interesting for several reasons... 1.  That anyone would have made this observation...   2.  That anyone would have said such a thing in an American business environment (mongering is politically incorrect in the US)... 3.  And because as I now travel the world, I think he's more or less correct... Have fun, CGP

Recent Ratings doghead   21-5-2012 01:00   Acceptance   +1   In Kwai Chung, cheap haircut is $30, a walkup is $350. so 10x sounds right.

#4 Post at 21-5-2012 02:36  Profile P.M.  Font size: S M L Reply #1 Caligynephiliac's post but haircuts are one of the most variable priced service ever! so your directory is just playing an old cold reading trick. In singapore, a haircut ranges from 10 bucks to 50 bucks for a standard  off the top/sides haircut - and up to 2000 for those with the cash to spare. I'm sure that it's the same in HK. For your reference Price of a legal hooker 1 hour is between 50-150. - a freelancer is more expensive.

Either that or she needs to be giving you a BJ with that trim! The 10X factor sounds kinda right to me too.  To make the math work you have to consider the very wide range of prices/services.  Haircuts can be $2 (Vietnam sidewalk) to $50 (expat salon in HCMC), versus services: $15 BBBJ (Hot Toc, expat price) to $100 (LT overnight). So the gentleman's comment is actually quite tough to nail down, given it's generality of context.  However, have any of you notice that the 10X factor is spot on accurate (+/- 1 SD) if comparing the cost of a shoe shine to the cost of a SW BBBJ in a back alley?? Hmmm? Recent Ratings CunningLinguist   21-5-2012 12:19   Acceptance   +1   Only usually get a blow dry with the trim... I didn't do it.  Really I didn't. The Butler

#8 Post at 21-5-2012 16:38  Profile P.M.  Font size: S M L What is the point in comparing a grooming activity to a WG? Just ridiculous. Why dont you just compare the price of a woman to the price of the coffee you are drinking?? You can be socially accepted without drinking coffee atleast rather than not getting a haircut, dont drink coffee and fuck extra WG.

#11 Post at 22-5-2012 20:09  Profile P.M.  Font size: S M L There's some value to the idea but if you look at western europe the varied levels of girls make this difficult. There are some places where this falls down though. UK and NL both can be pretty expensive in terms of things like haircuts/grooming (excluding the bargain basement) but the girls are not 10X the price (although this depends on the time). It's an interesting theory though, especially given that I've met many attractive hair dressers over the years

#12 Post at 22-5-2012 21:23  Profile P.M.  Font size: S M L I think we are taking the directors comments too literal.   Roughly, 10 dollar for haircut, 100 bucks for fs.  It's a pretty common ratio I think. Good haircut in BJ, 150rmb, good class escort, 1500rmb Medium range haircut in BJ, 60 rmb, medium range escort, 600 bucks. In L.A, Medium range haircut, 12 - 15 bucks, medium range fs service, 120-150 bucks? I 'm sure these numbers can vary, but it's close enough for me.

#13 Post at 23-5-2012 06:55  Profile P.M.  Font size: S M L I think I watched something on the History Channel about prostitution during the Roman Empire, the cost of FS back then is the relatively the same cost as it is now when compared to the standard of living.  After all it is the worlds oldest profession.
