Barbers, hot shaves and men’s waxing in Bakersfield. Who lists what, and for how much.
Short answer: a men’s cut in Bakersfield lists from $26 at a chain, $30 to $35 at most independent barbers, and a hot towel shave lists from $30 to $60 depending on the shop. Uptown Barbershop lists a $30 haircut and a $30 hot shave. Barber Dave lists a $35 haircut and a $35 hot shave. For chest or back waxing, European Wax Center on Stockdale Hwy publishes every price.
Bakersfield is a big, spread-out town, and a lot of its barbers work from a booking page instead of a storefront sign. Here’s who lists what, for how much, and which shops we couldn’t get prices for.
