Looking for an inexpensive haircut/style in Lausanne region
So I am in need of a haircut soon and am looking for a place in Lausanne. Some of the shops I had passed in town are charging >60 francs when I am so used to something around 20 francs back home. Does anyone has someone to recommend in the zone 11/12 area that speaks english and doesn't charge this student an arm and a leg for a haircut?
I noticed on previous posts - http://www.academiedecoiffure.ch/Pub...php?wkskey=406 - they seem to be not too bad but how is there service? And there was the Chez Maxim

The académie has a good reputation. As you probably know you'll have an apprentice working on you, but that wouldn't put me off.
Maxim is fantastic and expensive, i.e. CHF200+ for colour, foils, cut and style.
I can recommend Roberto Bianco at Premier Acte. They give a 20% student discount, but on a cut you will still be paying around CHF60 after the discount. One to save for a special occasion.
If you go to the académie let us know how it works out - I'm interested too.

Re: Looking for an inexpensive haircut/style in Lausanne region
I went to the Académie (Rue Grand St-Jean) a few months ago and everything went very well, but then again I was this bloke who only needed a trim so I was probably not the most demanding customer.
Anyway, 19 francs, shampoo included, can't beat that.
Yes, you'll have an apprentice working on you, but the teachers are there all the time and check everything, no need to worry.

EDIT: not sure they speak English though, might be a good idea to bring a photo of what you want.

I can recommend Chez Maxim but have to agree that you're not going to get a budget haircut. She's a lovely lady though so maybe give her a call and explain your situation? She may be able to offer an alternative.
I had a student friend a few year ago who made a deal with her local hairdresser to go in with just washed hair and have only a cut done (no blowdry). This way she got a good cut for a price she could afford.

Re: Looking for an inexpensive haircut/style in Lausanne region
I'm as well searching for a cheap haircut to get in lausanne, I could go to some barber it's no problem, I need a short haircut, no extra things. Can somebody recommend a good place to get a haircut for a male?

Ah, OK! I had the idea that it was for women only. 12 doesn't sound bad at all. Thank you.

Re: Looking for an inexpensive haircut/style in Lausanne region
I have the same problem - searching for a hairdresser that wouldn't charge more than 120CHF for a visit (roots dye + small cut) b/c the result I get is more than modest and I feel very bad abt paying such a price
I don't need someone English speaking, I can explain myself in French...
So PLEASE share your secret contacts! Would very much appreciated... Also OK if in Vevey / Montreux area.

Re: Looking for an inexpensive haircut/style in Lausanne region
This post is almost 2 years old. I am wondering if one can get a haircut in Lausanne for 20 CHF or less in 2012? Thanks for your sharing.

Re: Looking for an inexpensive haircut/style in Lausanne region
It's not clear - did anyone ever answer the question, "Is there a place to get a cheap haircut in Lausanne where it is possible to describe the desired haircut to the hairdresser/barber in ENGLISH"????
if so, could you let me know what the answer is? (i will need a haircut soon, and this will be useful information.)
thanks.

Do you know one in Zurich around those prices? Because every time I go for a haircut here (Gidor, Pierre) 45+ CHF is not only my hair being cut also my wallet

Check this guy. Charges 24 for a proper barber cut and he is very good. Can't really beat this price! I am a regular for a year now.

Motorenstrasse 9. Quellenstrasse or Limmatplatz station. Indian-Tamil barber. CHF25 a cut. Clean and sleek cuts. I find the style of Tamil barbers far better than that of North Africans in France and Hong Kongers in Canada. By that I mean the default cut-the cut that you'll get if you say nothing.
