At QB House you simply put a 1000 yen note into a machine, which then gives you a ticket. You present the ticket to the barber when your turn comes up. The machine doesn't make change, so make sure you have a 1000 yen note before you go in.
I agree 100%. My last trip to Japan I went to QB House twice in three weeks. I didn't need the second haircut, but at 1000 yen for that level of quality and service I couldn't resist.
