Frequently Asked Questions

How much do you tip a hairdresser on $200?

The standard tip amount for hair services is 15-20% of the total bill. For a $200 salon bill, you should tip $30-40. Tips are an important way to show appreciation for good service from your hairdresser and will be much appreciated, especially around the holidays. Some additional tipping guidance on a $200 hair appointment:

20% is considered a generous tip – this would be $40 on a $200 salon bill.
15% is an acceptable baseline – this would equal $30 on a $200 appointment.
You may want to tip 20% or more for an exceptional experience with great customer service.
For reference, a $20 tip would only be 10% on a $200 bill and would be a very small tip.

Go with what you can afford, but keep the 15-20% standard in mind when tipping on pricier services!

Why is long hair more expensive to cut?

There are a few reasons why long hair costs more to cut at the salon:

The main factors are the extra time and work it takes to cut long hair, and the higher product usage. Hair that is shoulder length or longer requires more meticulous sectioning, cutting, checking lengths, and adjustments.

This added time and care is factored into the price. Extra products like shampoo, conditioner, oils, and serums are also used to properly cleanse, detangle, and style long hair. Finally, longer hair causes more wear and tear on the stylist’s tools requiring more frequent replacement.

The cumulative costs of working with long hair lead to the higher price tags. Generally, hair that is 8 inches or more below the shoulders starts to fall into the long hair pricing categories at places like Holiday Hair.

How much should a woman pay for a haircut?

For a standard women’s haircut at a salon like Holiday Hair, the typical price range is $40-$75. However, pricing depends on specific factors:

$40-50 – Basic trim only, short to medium hair length
$50-65 – All over cut and style with blow dry on medium length hair
$60-75 – Long or thick hair cut and style
$75-100+ – Advanced or specialty cut with styling on long hair

Other considerations for pricing include:

Salon’s location and overall pricing scale
Experience level of the stylist
Any styling beyond a basic blow dry, like curling or flat iron work
Add-on services like treatments or highlights

Talk to your stylist to determine the right cut and price for your specific hair type, length, and desired look. Make it clear what’s within your budget. With open communication, you can get a fabulous cut you love at a fair price point!
