The price of a men's haircut in Montreal varies a lot from one shop to another. Neighbourhood, barber experience, appointment length and included finishes: here is how to read prices before you book.
The most common price ranges
- Classic men's cut: about $25 to $45
- Fade with line-up: about $35 to $55
- Beard trim: about $20 to $35
- Cut + beard package: about $50 to $80
- Kids cut: about $20 to $30
These amounts are indicative, before taxes and tip. Downtown and Plateau shops are often at the top of the range, while residential neighbourhoods offer gentler prices.
What makes the price vary
A skin fade requires more precision and time than a scissor cut. Shampoo, hot towel, straight-razor line-up or final styling may be included or charged as extras.
GST, QST and tip
In Quebec, GST (5%) and QST (9.975%) are added to the listed price if the shop is registered for taxes. A tip, usually 15% to 20%, is up to you.
