How hip is Anderson Cooper? The CNN host was just spotted at a Manhattan barbershop getting a $15 haircut, reports The New York Post. Barbershops are retro-chic again, and the roll-back-the-prices cost is a retro benefit too.

While the oh-so-foxy silver fox is undeniably a luxaholic -- donning his timeless bespoke suits, making Vanity Fair's Best Dressed List, jetting around the globe on assignment, having fashion icon and socialite Gloria Vanderbilt for a mother -- this guy doesn't feel the need to get clipped at a fancy salon like other dudes do. It's a refreshingly inexpensive trend that hearkens back to another era -- and certainly makes Mr. Cooper even more intriguing than he already seems... a non-luxe cut above.
