The 2 in Vallila have gone to 15€. Crazy - I've timed them and they are done in 8-10 minutes!

There's a couple. A friend just came from a place somewhere in kallio along line 9 and near braahe (helsinginkatu would be my guess) and said it took a good 20+ minutes, was very satisfied.
Another friend got a cut somewhere in punavuori (sorry, can't be more precise :D ) and was fairly happy. Don't expect these places to last. It is very hard to make it work on 10 eur a cut, these price will only lasts a few months until they go up.

OK - tks - will check out and report back.

I really don't want much more than a simple 'cut' - and the 10 min job has been just fine.

It's difficult for me to see why 10€ doesn't work as a business model. The barbers have been invariably Iraqis. It's a 'claen' job - and far higher income than any Social payments. Rent is reasonable - all places have been in low-rent areas. The equipt has been amortized years ago.

There are many of them in Leppävara area, close to Alepa and the Hospital (the other side of the train tracks- opposite side of Sello). Some even do it for 8e.
