There is a fourth option where the place has stylists who specialise in mens or womens hair. No reduction in talking, beer and coffee available (and prosecco against the owners better judgement, but this is only offered by the stylist who demanded it). Longest I've been in the chair was 90 mins, but I have longer hair than most people of any gender.
Barber = hair cuts for men (no coffee, no talking, in and out as fast as possible, nose hair, eyebrows and ear hair gets trimmed as a matter or course)
Hairdresser = hair cuts for women (very coffee, maybe even a glass of wine/prosecco, much talking, 2 hours min, scalp hair only)
Unisex hairdresser = haircuts for men and women (some talking, maybe a coffee, longer than you'd like, 50/50 on general head-based hair management)
Purely anecdata, but that's where I'd put the divide.
