Pricing Guide with Tips"},"content":{"rendered":"\n

The average cost of a haircut ranges from $10 to $90, according to pricing data from our stylists. But as most of us know, haircutting prices vary and can reach much higher or lower than these averages. So, how much is a haircut supposed<\/em> to cost?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Factors like your stylist\u2019s experience and your location can influence prices. For example, a cut from an experienced hairstylist in New York City will probably cost more than a cut from a student barber in Savannah, GA.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Even so, it\u2019s not easy to know whether or not you\u2019re overpaying for a haircut. We pulled pricing data for each state along with some tips to help you make your best decision when booking your next haircut<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Men\u2019s haircut prices for each state<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Men\u2019s cuts are generally cheaper than women\u2019s cuts. Delaware is home to the most expensive cuts at $42 while West Virginia sees an average of $15. Although men\u2019s haircuts are cheaper, we\u2019ve seen that clients book these appointments more frequently compared to women\u2019s cuts. This is no surprise since you need more frequent haircuts to maintain a shorter length.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Below is the average cost of men\u2019s haircut<\/a> appointments in each state.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Women\u2019s haircut prices for each state<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Women\u2019s haircuts tend to cost more than men\u2019s haircuts since hair is typically longer and requires a longer appointment time. Women\u2019s haircuts in California are $93 on average while Wyoming cuts are $17.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why are haircuts so expensive?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Haircut costs take lots of factors into account, including things like experience, rent, and tools. Generally speaking, a person with really long hair who wants an asymmetrical bob with bangs can expect to pay much more than a person with shoulder-length hair who just wants a trim. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
