Indian barber now also very smart... charge high high.. 1 hair cut in PJ indian barber costs up to RM 15 sometimes.. if shave RM 20+ gila.. notice quick cut is cheaper slightly...


A traditional haircut at the local Indian barber costs RM15 to RM 20+, but some customers are willing to pay up to RM100 for a premium job. Barber Sri Suthagar Krishnan said the industry has evolved, with clients willing to pay more for high-quality, personalised grooming experiences. “Unlike traditional Indian barbers who charge modestly to get the job done, I charge about RM100 per haircut for men.

“Customers spend more time here, enjoying the haircut and a range of premium services like styling, shaving and washing using top-quality tools and techniques. “Every pair of scissors I have is handmade in Japan and costs over RM3,000. “There are also other costs involved in running the business, such as attending courses to upgrade our skills continuously,” said the 36-year-old, who runs the barber shop here.

Sri Suthagar believes the market shortage of barbers is partly due to a lack of understanding of the career’s potential. Many, especially within the Indian community, avoid pursuing barbering because it’s often seen as a low-paying job offering basic cuts. “People view it as a simple profession with limited career growth. However, barbering can be a premium career with great prospects, especially with the rise of high-end grooming services,” he said. The high cost of employment permits for foreign workers hinders barber S. Mari Muthu’s business expansion.


However, these establishments often lack the personal touch, with no owners available for consultation or interaction with customers before their haircuts.
