Young man flies from England to Africa for cheap haircut

(Dan Tri) - Calculating the total cost of the entire trip from London (UK) to Morocco (an African country) to get a haircut, the young man said he still saved 2 pounds (70,000 VND) and was satisfied.

A young man from London (UK) booked a flight to Morocco (an African country) just to get a haircut because he thought it would be cheaper than where he was living.

That is the story of Muscab Salad, 22 years old. Because he wanted to have a new hairstyle before flying to Barcelona (Spain) for work, he consulted and learned that some countries like Morocco would have quite cheap haircuts.

Meanwhile, in London, each time a young man goes to get a haircut, he has to pay an average of 41 pounds (1.4 million VND).

When he checked the ticket prices on Skyscanner, he happened to see a flight to Morocco for only 15 GBP (520,000 VND) so he booked it right away. In mid-October, the guest set off. From the airport, he took a taxi for 6 GBP (208,000 VND) and stayed at a hostel in Marrakech for 10 GBP (345,000 VND).

Muscab then walked down the street and spotted a barber shop that only charged £8, so he went in and tried it out. He admitted he was a little nervous at first because he was used to the services in the UK, but was ultimately pleased with the results.

Muscab's haircut in London cost £41, including £35 for the haircut and £6 for travel. Meanwhile, a trip to Morocco cost just £39 (including flights, travel and haircut), equivalent to 1.3 million VND.

"I usually get my hair cut in England and I'm loyal to my barber. But this trip surprised me because I got to experience a haircut, travel , and explore. The prices for accommodation and transportation in this country are also much cheaper than in England, although there is a slight difference due to the language barrier," he said.

After sharing the video on his personal page, the British guest's experience attracted a lot of interaction and controversy. Some opinions said that the experience of getting a haircut abroad is something worth trying, but if the whole trip only costs 39 pounds, it is unreasonable because it does not take into account the cost of food, transportation, etc.
