I live in Albuquerque, and this sort of thing varies greatly around here. There are certainly places that are $35-50 for a hair cut and require appointments, but there are also barber shops and chains where you can walk in and get a haircut right away for $10-15.

The best haircut I ever got was at Sky Barbershop in Alexandria, VA circa 2013. I think it was like $12.

You can pay $500 for a haircut in SF but you can also pay $12 the way that I do.

$15 in Fremont. No appt.

$23 including tip in bay area.

I pay $50 with tax and tip in Oakland. Equivalent is over $70 total in SF.
