I braved this place once, amidst all the rumors that they would butcher my hair. All I asked them to do was trim my bangs. They did it, they did a good job and they charged me $3. I can't complain. Now, I've seen a few haircuts from here that just didn't look right, as I'm sure many others have as well. Nevertheless, you have to figure there's plenty of people getting their hair cut here that we don't notice because it came out fine. If your hair is short and you aren't emotionally attached to the results, I say, why not? You won't find a cheaper option unless you've got a friend with hair-cutting scissors.

Technicuts is a barber shop located in the basement of the MIT Stratton Student Center. It's a mediocre student salon offering rather expensive ($20 plus) haircuts and other beauty salon treatments like shampoo, perms, and hair colorings. The nice thing about the salon is that it is convienient for many students to use. The bad thing is that it is that the people there really arent' very good and the haircuts are hit or miss. Visitor beware.
