Who sets haircut prices

No one publishes an official rate for haircut. Each provider costs the job from the ground up, so the figure reflects their materials, their time and their current workload.

How to compare quotes for haircut

Cheapest is not the same as best value for haircut. A slightly higher quote with a complete scope and no open-ended extras is often safer than the lowest figure with caveats.

What moves the price of haircut

Labour, materials and timing explain most of the gap between two quotes for haircut. Access and preparation often matter as much as the headline task, so a job that needs extra setup or a second visit costs more even when the base price looks identical.
