  • I get a professional quality haircut here in District 1, Saigon, Vietnam, for only 60k vnd, or about $2.50. This haircut is cheaper than buying just a pair of scissors in America. The staff are very skilled and professional, and offer all of the services and amenities that you would receive at a top level barber shop in the USA.
    I was accompanied by my girlfriend on this haircut travel vlog. First we walked through a local alley neighborhood to see if we could find a barbershop in there. When we were unable to find one there, we asked the local residents where the nearest barbershops were, and they pointed us in the right direction.
    After a short walk, we made it to a hair salon called Cắt Tóc Nguyễn Dương.
    I noticed the sign on the window said “giá bình dân”, which means “affordable price”.
    The guy who cut my hair was named Tien, and as soon as I showed him a picture of what I wanted my hair to look like, he understood the assignment and did an excellent job.
    The barbershop does more than just haircuts. The also do ear cleanings, acne removal, shampoo, massages, and more. I also ended up getting a shampoo and head and neck massage which only cost another 60k vnd. The total price was 120k vnd, I gave an 80k tip, and paid a total of 200k vnd, which is less than $9.
    The barber really took his time and made sure to address all the details of the haircut. He also used a straight razor at the end to fine tune the edges of the hair line. The girl who did the shampoo and massage was gentle, yet also strong enough to give a decent massage and a thorough shampoo. Both of the employees who helped me were great at their job, and I left feeling like I got a great value.
    The barbershop is a very short walking distance from Bui Vien Party Street in Pham Ngu Lao Ward of District 1, Ho Chi Minh City. For anyone traveling to Vietnam and looking for a cheap and relaxing trip to the hair salon, come check out this barbershop:

    Best haircuts I’ve ever had in my life were in Saigon. Around $4 and they spend 30 minutes to an hour on me normally unlike here in the U.S. $30 for a 12 minute cut

    • @BigTimeBentley
      @BigTimeBentley  9 месяцев назад +1

      very true...way more attention to detail and pride in the work it seems like. Though some places will just rush through the cut, but once you find a good one it's such a great value

    I like your haircut. Your Vietnamese is good and cute. Try to learn more and speak more Vietnamese because most Vietnamese viewers really enjoy hearing foreigners speak Vietnamese. When a foreigner speaks Vietnamese, they think you like their culture, and in return, more of them will watch your videos.

    Love those "binh dan" places, be it eateries or hair cut or alter shop. Great deal in VN. Here in the US, it costs so damn much and not nearly the shaving and ear cleaning services either. Add in the mandatory tip and I get the urge to let my hair grow and become a hippie. Your hairstyle looks great on you.

    A bit of extra nerdy knowledge for you. That barber didn't use a straight razor. He used what we call a shavette. The shavette takes a half DE blade, whilst a straight is itself like a knife which needs sharpening and maintaining.
