i ended up just cutting my own hair in MBK all i wanted was my head shaved with clippers no hard work just quick and easy. Shop started trying to hit me for 800Baht and 500 baht.. i had agreed on another place 200 baht wash and cut they attempted to shave it and the girl dooing it was hopless missed bits everywhere and it was horrible in the end i slipped one of the barbers 100 Baht and shaved my head myself. saved myself so much time. they did also try and sell me minerals and nutriens for my hair but my hairs already dead..lol....

Go to The outer suburbs of bangkok its only 50 to 60 baht for a mens hair cut.

Pak Kret near the bus terminal, Mahachai Mai (Rama 2 km 21) Bang Son (Krung Thep Nonthaburi soi 32. These all over clean and very cheap hair cuts. If you have thai friends or speak thai its worth the bus ride out there.

I went for a haircut/colour/treatment in MBK with my friend during my previous trip, 2nd or 3rd level of MBK, that salon is good and highly recommended, next to another salon though. next to escalator. A not-so-class salon as compared to the one on the ground floor but their service is good.

Btw, which level is this Neo Neo Neo situated?

Irene, it's either located right above or right below the Pizza hut.
Don't know what floor it was exactly.

A tip for those needing a good haircutin Bangkok: Call the Marriott Sukkumvit spa and make a reservation with the male haircutter. He does a great job, for less than 900 baht with service and vat you will get a pro haircut, no pressure to buy products(once he actually told me to buy Nioxin somewhere else as their markup was so huge!) He has cut my hair for nearly two years and also my wife, always does a great job and speaks fluent english.

Thaitransit is right. Get the subway out to Rama 4 road or Huay Khwang or Sutthisan plenty of barbershops around there. 60 baht for a men's haircut. Or try the barbers in the subway or skytrain stations, QB House I think they are called 100 baht for a haircut.

there is a place in the same soi as the novotel near siam paragon. Cost me 450 baht for a haircut and is one of the best i have ever had. it is called @3 and is next to issey massage. girls haircut is 500 baht. it is more expensive but they are good and won't rip you off.

Try Hairwaves at Market Plus, Sukhumvit Soi 83, a short walk from the BTS Skytrain and Lotus-Tesco supermarket. They speak English and it's certainly not expensive.

Why should I spend 900 Baht in a hotel.
Thats more than i spend here in Germany for Wash, Cut and Dry.

More than 100 in Bangkok is overpaid.

try hairsalon inside Nana BTS 150 fo wash and blow dry, really good service.

Second the recommendation about the place on the Nana BTS platform. It's called Cat Hair Design, and the owner has been cutting hair many years and has won many awards. The employees are good, and meticulously clean. Great service, reasonable prices

Anne, I'll shave it for you.

just call

Peters Pet Emporium,

I do house calls too

;O)

I had haircut in tailand!! After no hair anymoro. No money in purse anymor Now back in Saudi 2 year. Still no hair Because tai lotion Never no go back there.

Recently, I did hair cut 150 baht, it's reasonable price

More that 100 is not an overpaid haircut in Thailand like Sacha said! not at all

Haircut and shave 50 bath

Haircut 50 bath Koh Samet opposite police station. Cherokee style!! No hair will grow on your head ever again

I go to NEO NEO NEO every month, and they do a really good job for 280B

One salon iI use in Sukhumvit 22 queens park plaza does great gents hairdressing, manicure , pedicure, ear clean, back shave with clippers at around 100 / 150 baht per service required. Always find myself going back there, been to a few others mbk, central world but much more expensive and trying to sell you overpriced styling that would last only a couple of days anyway.

The independant places by and large are quite good but better to stick to the tourist orientated areas as theyre used to dealing with foreign customers hair, you take a chance with the off piste places and you could be scalped in the process ,all in aid of saving 50 baht.

Neo Neo Neo Good hairdressers!!!

HAHAHA I have been to that NEO shop a few rtimes actually, they are the most unfriendly and annoying hairdressers ever- they will ask you twenty times if you want 'treatment' or 'vitamins' if you still say no they will pay you back- their way (ripping your hair, insulting you etc, giving you a shitty cut) it's on the 3rd floor, a corner shop near the Burger King entrance.

Several cuts there. Good cut Good price Very nice gents

This site has been cleaned at last. No more Phighoglet or Sammie etc. Only scams. Good work admin!

MBK is the shopping center version of Suvarnhabumi. Most of the stuff they sell is available (with warranty) from stores like Paragon and Central at the same price or less, eg. mobile phones, electronics, cosmetics. I don't understand why anybody goes there. A real Thai harcut is a great bargain. It should cost between 80-120 baht for a man, including washing and conditioner.

There is a place off Rambutti street not far from the Happy house guest house that does mens hair cuts for 100 baht and I can honestly say it was one of th ebest haircuts I have had in my life.

I also went to the Neo Neo Neo Hairsalon at MBK on Sep 9th 2009. I had a middle age (late 30 or 40 ) hairdressor who has long straight hair. She seems very nice in the beginning and in the middle of cutting my hair, she wanted me to have vitamin for my hair. I planned to go beach following morning. so I told her that I will do it next time. she insisted and called her boss who can speak better in english and tried to sell the product again. Her boss was saying that I had to have vitamin treatment because I am going to beach. So I asked how much is it. As I remember it was about 580bht extra some other stuff. all together she said that 700bht more. I told them not to do it.. after I said that, boss left and hair dressor started to cut my hair agian with shitted face. I was very nervous. the way she was cutting, she is about to kill me. I regretted that I should just add these vitamin stuff.. anyway, my hair was ok. but after the haircut, she didn't want to clean my hair on my neck or face.. what a terrible service.

JUST HAD THE SAME SCAM RUN ON ME.

B285 haircut and shampoo turned into B1500 after they put some "treatment" on my hair.

BEWARE

JUST HAD THE SAME SCAM RUN ON ME.
B285 haircut and shampoo listed on teh wall turned into B1500 after they put some "treatment" on my hair.
BEWARE

I usually went there because it is convenient for shopping and have had great haircuts there in the early 2000's when I had previously visited. They used to have fantasticly cute girls, pedicures for only B150 more beyond the haircut and great customer service as they spent a lot of time on you.

Now things have changed
The stylist was a guy, slick and crafty, couldn't speed me out of teh chair fast enough and teh kicker is that the haircut was below average.

Boy this shop has gone down hill - BEWARE

Usually get a haircut in Central Bangna. B200 and a really good job. Wash, cut and blow dry. I did find an old Thai bloke in Huamark who did it for B60 [no wash but I can do that] but he passed away some months ago. I reckon those little shops out in the suburbs are the place to go.

Go to CATS hair salon on NANA BTS station, good service, reasonable price, all round very good.

I have to disagree with Traveller, I had an awful experience at " CATS " just recently, I'll never go back again. I don't suppose its your girlfriends salon by any chance Traveller?

Actually she is not my girlfriend, but I would definitely give her one:) any way I have to disagree with you, I have visited many times and had excellent service and good haircuts.

ITS VERY INTERSETING READING YOUR COMMENTS ABOUT YOUR EXPERIENCES VISITING "THAI SALONS" I AM A LONDON HAIRDRESSER LISTED AND RECOMENDED IN THE BANGKOK GUIDE AND I CHARGE A FLAT RATE OF 1000BHT FOR A 'VIDAL SASSOON" HAIRCUT ! I SEND ALL MY CLIENTS TO BOOTS THE CHEMIST FOR PRODUCTS THEY MAKE FOR TONY AND GUY TREVOR SORBIE ECT BUT THERE OWN BRANDS ARE GOOD IN FACT THEY ARE GREAT PRODUCTS AND YOU CAN EASILY FIND ME ON GOOGLE

@Johny, your web site says cuts cost between 1000-1500 baht?
Also,why are you shouting?

I did go to Johny Live and got a terrible cut and color. When I told him that he had missed patches of hair with no color, he offered me a half price hair cut for the next time. He never offered to fix the problem he created!!

@Delia - he's shouting because his caps lock key is stuck. His comma and full stop keys seem to be broken as well. Anyway, based on what I've read here I think I'll be getting my hair cut before I leave for Thailand as per my original plan. At least I can be sure I won't be scammed. Cheers all.

just say a big "NO"! maybe just they heard only the "THANK YOU"........misunderstanding.

i think it would be a better forum and more honest if the unhappy clients dealed directly with the stylist with there complaint rather than writing aninimously i would be more than happy to deal directly with these people rather than lisyening to one side of a story i think your readers would agree

Your complaints towards me i happen to know who they are i only do 2/3 clients a day this is one sided unfair critisism from "cranks" i would be happy to deal with them directly and fairly

How can i defend myself suggestions please thanks johny x

matt is the only comment ive read so far that makes any sense and delia (real name barbara from germany) i have no delias in my appointnts you dont need a hairdresser a simple therapist should do the trick but i will never forget you
darling tried to scam a scotsman silly girl x

Do NOT go to Neo Salon in MBK!!! I went for a Manu and pedi an after the pedicure I got up and left. The young guy doing my pedicure had a runny nose and LITERALLY it dropped on my feet a couple times! The guy also cut off half of my big toe nail (vertically on one whole side!) and now I have an in grown toe nail. He claimed it was like that and everyone just dismissed my anguish in the salon. I paid for my sub par (that's a compliment to call it sub par) pedicure and got out of there. I urge you to not fall for their cheap prices and go elsewhere, the pain I have been in since receiving this pedicure isn't worth the money that I saved by getting a pedicure there, not to mention how terrible my toes have looked for weeks now!

I have been to Toni & Guys in various places throughout Thailand and all in all have not been too disappointed.
I always clarify the end price first and settle for simple procedures, bearing in mind that Thais are more used to Asian hair than western hair.
I have had some dreadful disasters in the past both in the western world and Thailand .. a simple trim will do nicely please.

According to my analysis, billions of persons in the world get the mortgage loans from different creditors. Thus, there's a good possibility to get a financial loan in every country.

I also got a terrible (but very expenssive) cut and color from Johnny Live. He is sloppy. Not recommended.

Hello.

I agree with Anonymous.

I had a horrible experience with Johnny Live just before the flood.

He cut my hair unevenly and did a pretty amateur color. I don't know if something was off in his head but he was sloppy about pretty much everything: color, cut, shampoo..... I had read possitive posts about this hair dresser before, but after trying him on my own hair and experiencing such an unprofessional job, I find myself - again - looking for a hairdresser in Bangkok.... can anyone help?

I DO NOT recommend Johnny Live.

If you have a good recommendation for me please post it here. I will be grateful.

Hello everybody.

I had a horrible experience cutting and coloring my hair with Johny Live. Please beware that he is not as good as he says he is. I hope this serves as a warning.

Best of luck,
Amy

I am happy here to left what I said as a mark that I have here,By the way with winter coming, my friends, if you have like the ugg, good news, we have recently entered the lot of the new, cheap and a good series ugg boots, it's fox fur such noble and generous family to sell very well. Short look into our store, you will get unexpected results.

I think JOHNY LIVE dopes himself before cutting people's hair. His hands shake all the time. When I got home and saw what he did on my hair I wanted to DIE!

I wish there was some sort of hairdressing scam police in Bangkok.... he should be put out of business. I had to cut my hair short to fix the mess he had done.

A few weeks ago I met a lady who had it worst than me. She went to him for color and ended up with half her head in one color and the other half in another color. Poor thing!
