Why do hairdressers charge so much

Why should this matter? Well, recently, when I went for a trim at a London salon, I saw this on their price list:. Which made me wonder: the price list for colouring has no distinction between the genders — so why does the cut? If I had, this would have saved me around I personally never get a blow dry as it makes me feel like an 80s weather girl.

Because they can? Because they think they can get away with it? This is my pet peeve. As an experiment, I have gone with men for haircuts. But both of us get charged differently, at the same salon, for the same length of hair and style.

On top of that, I often receive advice from male hairdressers to not go ahead with the chop. Aapke face ke liye accha nahin lagega. Thode lambe hone dijiye. You want it shorter than this? Let them grow a bit. Apparently, this is not just about haircuts. Women are charged more for shoes, jeans, wallets, everything. I am not the one to take this lying down. I argue with them at the salon each time. The reasons given for this injustice have been varied, but I must confess, they were all equally entertaining.

But, sometimes, I win the argument too. If just on two occasions, I have got the hairstylists to agree to charge me as much as their male customers. No, not because they understood my reasoning, but because they got tired of arguing with me. The first time, it was at Ashoka University. This is an important thing to consider because, in some places, the price goes up with increased demand, and in rare cases, vice versa.

Now that you understand why a hairdresser is so expensive, you can see what things must be done to ensure that you find a good hairdresser in the reasonable range. As salons are charging much, there are also others that you can find at an affordable rate. Just make sure not to compromise when it comes to pricing, no matter what. Overpricing is a common problem in the hairdressing and salon industry. Jun is an experienced writer for hairdressing and barbers.
