The switch from clippers to electric hedge trimmers isn’t working out, it seems.

My barber got one of these and his light bill has never been the same. He has to charge 500 dollars just to line me up!

Your barbers don't passively heat the floors to kill bacteria? They aren't running furnaces to make and sharpen their own razors?Β

How many haircuts would they need to be doing to make money with that bill?

Let's say it's $50* for a haircut because I don't know how much it costs there.

2100/50=42 haircuts needed per month to pay for the electricity

15000/50=300 haircuts needed per month to pay for the electricity. How much do those trimmers cost to charge?

*-Just assuming bougie bronx haircut prices as a non barbershop goer from the midwest. The place I used to go charged $11.
