Questions about cheap haircuts
How much is a discount haircut?

Most discounted model haircuts cost a small fee to cover products, and many are free. The exact price is on every listing.
Why are these haircuts so cheap?
+
The person cutting is an apprentice or student practicing a technique, usually checked by an educator. You get a salon cut at a fraction of the price; they get practice.
Where can I get the cheapest haircut in New York City?
+
Model sessions are usually the cheapest way to get a salon haircut in NYC. Filter by price or choose a free session if you want to pay nothing.
Is a cheap haircut from a trainee any good?

Why would a salon do my hair for free?

Who does the work?
