Cost of a haircut

My hairdresser works from home, £25 for a dry cut and she gets it right every time!

My hairdresser was 60 for a cut - I have a single length bob and it takes maybe 20 mins. The colour is about 180. I can’t justify the cost of the cut any more so a friend who trained as a hairdresser does it for a bottle of wine! I still get the colour done twice a year as it’s great!

I have a dry cut £12 as I have vertigo and cannot have it washed

You can't get a cut and blow dry for under 100 pounds in my fancy south-east town, but I go a few miles out where the prices are more like 45-60 pounds depending on who you have. The less fancy salons also do dry cuts, which the expensive ones in the expensive towns don't seem to offer. 100 pounds for a cut and blow dry in London and the south-east is pretty standard, but I think it's very expensive, unless it's in central London.

Posting issue...posted twice for some reason..
Maybe shocked re price of hair cuts...

Wow where are you all...I paid £15 last time for a wet cut which I thought was expensive and normally paid £10. Very happy and pleased with the cut. Can't see why you pay more than £20 ever but this is a wet cut and nothing else done.

Mine is £15 for a dry cut, £10 for the same for each child.

I pay £60 for a cut, but I book the most expensive person in the salon. You can get a basic stylist for around £40 if you're not too fussy.

I have my hair cut every eight weeks at the local salon. £25 and I add on a £5 tip. My stylist trained at Vidal Sassoon and she's really good.
In London, it was £80, and in a local village £50, and that was before the tip.

I go to colleges that have hair and beauty departments. They cut, dye hair etc. for a considerably cheaper price and there is a member of staff/a teacher on hand when important decisions are made. You can even choose the grade and experience of the college student if you pay a bit more.
I have a cut and blow dry for £7-9 usually.
I haven't paid for blonde highlights that I might have next.

£45 colour cut blow dry. I go to a tiny salon in a run down town rather than a fancy one locally which would be at least double the price.

I can. It's £18.

I just don’t know how people afford to go every 8-12 weeks they can't

I'm central Scotland but my town is quite expensive compared to other ones nearby which are a gd bit cheaper.

My local salon has got way too expensive. I was £53 last time for a cut and blow dry. It's gone up again, it's now £58 so I'm trying somewhere new next time. I'm not actually sure how much as it's from £35 for cut and blow dry so I'm hoping maybe about £40 as my hair is long.

I just get a few inches off and maybe a layer added, it's super easy. Sometimes I cut it myself if I can't be bothered going or just want to trim the ends.

I pay £73 for a colour, cut and blow dry. I don't resent the cost at all, my hairdresser is highly skilled and deserves to be paid well for her work. There are so many rubbish hairdressers out there, I've been stung before and am pleased I've found someone who does a good job.

I’ve been with my hairdresser for years and think he’s wonderful. He left the salon in my town and set up by himself 40mins drive away and I’ve followed him. Happy to do that rather than take a chance with someone else. My hair is fine and the cut is quite complex. I pay £50 for a cut and blow dry every 6 weeks or so. I have subtle highlights a couple of times a year which also cost about £60. He has been cutting DD’s hair since she was little and only charges £20 for a cut and blow dry for her even though she’s 11 now.

I’ve just paid £156 cut and colour. It will need colouring again in 3 weeks.

£18. Spray and cut. I go to hairdresser’s house.

£12 dry cut, which is clearly a win looking at this. Is a large salon with rented chairs. Can't book have to wait. No complaints at that price

Last year I paid £25 for a wet cut. I have just paid £10 for a cut and blow-dry at the local college. Downside is it took longer and they only do weekdays until 3pm.

I work at a FE college and have had my hair foiled toner and cut for between £18-25 .
They are very closely supervised and have to keep details of colours etc. I can honestly say that they are better than my previous hairdresser who always liked to cut too much off. It does take a little more time but not significantly so. They only offer certain days/evenings as the apprentices are in their salon work places the rest of the time. They use professional products, the salons are immaculate and they are enthusiastic. Highly recommend.

I’ve started going to a walk in salon. I always ask for a dry cut. Costs me £25 for trim and layers. I can’t be arsed with anything more tbh, I go after work and just want to be in and out.

Mine's the same

She charged about £50 for stripping my hair of old dye, trimming the ends and putting new mixed colour in. She won't accept more, I do try to tip her because her skills, expertise and time is worth more but she doesn't take it

I think it depends where in the country you are and what kind of place you go to.

Have you considered having a mobile hairdresser to your home? They are cheaper.

Or looking into salons in a cheaper part of the area you live in. Eg a relative lives about 45 mins from me but lots of things are is cheaper there than where I am.

Yes - the company is important too. I've not returned to some places because I've not enjoyed the chat.
