Quianda J. says, "Education, explaining the process. Ms. Wallace also helps you care for your hair in between appointments. My color has been flawless and I've experienced no breakage or damage. She also hairs about the hair, so if I don't need heat, she WON'T DO IT! I pout, but my hair is long and healthy. Highly recommend" Read more

Your Hair Styling questions, answered

Answers to commonly asked questions from the experts on Fash.

How much does a hair stylist cost?

The average cost to get your hair professionally styled is between $40 and $150, depending on your location and the service you select. Hair salon cuts cost from $20 and up with salons offering numerous other styles with a range of prices, including:

How much to tip at a hair salon?

There are no set rules for tipping but if you are happy with your haircut a tip of 15% to 20% is acceptable. Tip your stylist in cash, rather than paying with a credit card, to be sure the tip goes directly to your stylist. If your stylist is also the owner of the salon, leaving a smaller or no tip is acceptable since they set the prices and earn the profits from your style.

Do hair salons charge tax?

In some areas, hair salons are exempt from sales tax. In other areas, they are subject to tax which is charged as a percentage of the total cost of the service and added to the final bill. When budgeting for your hair services, don't forget to ask the salon whether tax is being added to the cost of your service.

What services does a hair salon offer?

Hair salons offer a variety of hair services including cuts, color, perms, straightening, and extensions. In addition to hair services, many salons also offer:

  • Waxing services
  • Nail services
  • Eyebrow services
  • Facials
  • Makeup application
  • Body treatments

How to choose a hair salon?

Choosing a hair salon is a very personal decision. Asking friends and family for referrals is a great idea, especially if you love their hair. Keep in mind that different hair types require different care, so finding a stylist that specializes in your hair type will result in a better style. Follow these additional suggestions to ensure you are making the best choice:

  • Check out the salon's website to see their services and photo gallery
  • Read salon reviews online at Fash and Google.
  • Schedule a consultation to get a feel for the stylist and atmosphere.
  • Ask questions about the stylist's experience, rates, services, and availability.
  • Check to see that the salon is comfortable, clean, and well-maintained.
  • Make sure the staff are friendly and knowledgeable.

What questions should I ask a hair salon?

  • What hair services do you offer?
  • What are the stylist's qualifications and experience?

  • What are your days and hours of operation?
  • What do you charge for a haircut and blow-dry?
  • Do you accept all major credit and debit cards?
