Most barbers are independent and have to rent a booth from another business. The business usually sets the prices. So, they can’t just adjust their prices accordingly. Also, out of the $20 you pay them, they have to pay a portion back to cover booth rent, buy materials, pay for healthcare, etc. Tip is often their actual wage after costs.

Is that only barbers’ problem? Why only barbers? What about cosmetic salons or i dunno repair guys etc ?
People tip at salons too
I meant it in context of OP. > Barbers can’t change their prices etc
Sounds like they should unionize.
