People increasingly are cutting their own hair to save money, if not their looks, the Wall Street Journal is reporting.
High-priced salons have taken a hit as more patrons go the do-it-yourself route, but they are seeing a surge in work to correct the mistakes in coloring and cutting that amateur hairdressers often make.
Do-it-yourself endeavors can be a good gauge for the state of the economy. First comes do-it-yourself car washing, then do-it-yourself hair cutting. You know the economy is tanking when do-it-yourself root canals become the rage.
There are no statistics on the number of people who are cutting their own hair during this economic downturn. But I have noticed a lot more people sporting the “bowl cut.” Most of them should have used a bigger bowl.
The one thing to remember when cutting your own hair is that it is very important to have a sharp pair of scissors, using dull shears can make it very difficult to cut hair. Using shears that are meant to cut paper is a huge No-No. Doing either of these things will cause split ends.
