How much does a men's haircut cost in Adelaide?

What barbers and salons publish for men's cuts and beard work. This page is the Adelaide cut of it.

The range in Adelaide

Lower quartile: $25
Midpoint: $35
Upper quartile: $45

Half of the men's haircuts prices published in Adelaide sit between $25 and $45, with a midpoint of $35. That is drawn from 34 businesses in Adelaide that publish this pricing, as collected on 25 September 2026.

Against the rest of the country

The midpoint in Adelaide is $10 below the national midpoint of $45, or about 22 per cent cheaper. That gap is between published price lists, not between quotes, so it describes how businesses advertise rather than what every appointment costs.

Why the range is so wide

Barber price lists are the flattest of any category here — most quote one number for a cut and one for a beard trim. What moves the total is combinations: cut-and-beard packages, and the skin fade or hot-towel lines that sit above the standard cut.

The other cities

Largest sample first. A city appears only where at least 25 businesses publish this pricing, because below that a single expensive salon moves the whole row.

What these numbers are, and are not

Every figure is computed from businesses’ own published service menus — 74 priced lines from 34 businesses in Adelaide, collected on 25 September 2026. None of it is typed in by hand.

A published price is not a quote. What you are charged depends on your hair, your skin and how long the appointment actually takes, and many businesses quote on consultation rather than publishing at all. Nationally, 1,012 businesses in our catalogue offer this service and 1,012 publish a price for it. The ones that publish are not a random sample of the ones that do not.
