Do you worry about how to find a cheap hairdresser?
I think everybody wishes they knew how to find a cheap hairdresser who is also excellent at what they do !
I used to have my hair cut and highlighted every 12 weeks. It cost me a small fortune.
I have now managed to find a hairdresser who will do it exactly the same, in every way, for £30 less. She was trained by the high street chain I used to go to and they use the same products. So how have I found this cheap hairdresser.?

How to find a cheap hairdresser – top tips
Simple.
I just stepped off the high street and found a local hairdressers salon within a suburb. I was paying so much extra on the high street because they were paying extra rent. It’s so much cheaper when you just step away!
Less is more when you learn how to find a cheap hairdresser
I’ve saved £120 a year. More actually because this hairdresser (being really sweet) advised me to just have my crown highlighted every few visits rather than a whole or half head which saves me even more. She may be a cheap hairdresser but she is rather lovely too.

How to find a cheap hairdresser – shop around
I suggest calling around and seeing exactly what you have done to your hair now would cost at other salons. I think you will be shocked.
My children ‘s hair costs £5 each to chop at this suburbian salon. I paid £13 each on the high street. £16 saving 4 x a year is another £64 saved.
That’s £184 total saving on hair cuts this past year just for the price of a few phone calls. Let me know how you get on finding a great and a cheap hairdresser!

I go to one of the girls I went to school with, she is great and has her own salon. She has always done the boys at £5 each and mine is £28 for cut and blow dry, but she will also just wash and cut it for me for £14 if I am short of cash
Always good to know the right people!
Thanks so much for commenting
Very excited to hear about your new site, well done!
I’ve decided to save even more money on hairdressers by growing my unruly mop!!
i think that will look lovely Sandy x
Fab advice, My hair is really long so I don’t get it cut very often probably a couple of times a year, but its so expensive even to have a little trim off the bottom. I cut my sons and hubby hair myself which saves a lot of money!
Good luck on your new site, looks fab!
Thank you so much . I let my hubby cut my hair once in depseration…DISASTER
I followed my regular hairdresser when she left my usual salon and set up on her own. I’ve saved over £150 a year :).
Looking forward to reading future posts.
Clever Sharon! Great tip to always ask your hairdresser for their munber if they tell you they are leaving they probably arent allowed to offer it.
i found this when entering your competition 🙂
Good luck sarah!
It’s also useful to track down their ‘model’ nights and let trainees loose on your hair for free – they are usually supervised well by experienced haidressers and I’ve not had a disaster ….. yet!
Thats a top tip thank you
My best friend is my hairdresser so my whole family tend to get quite cheap haircuts. She has even donated a few of her old hair clippers to my husband when she was buying new ones for her salon! Bargain!!
So handy 😉
I am told the local higher education college runs a hairdressing course and offer reduced rates for volunteers so the students get some practice. I haven’t ventured out there …… yet
Go on be brave!
I’ve not been to a hairdressers since I was 10 due to the embarrassment that comes with my health problem , so I’m just thinking of all the pennies I’ve saved over the years really ! Thanks for the great tip , I’ll be sure to pass it on to friends and family as that sort of saving really makes a difference .
Thanks again for the competition !

I wish I had time to go to the hairdressers. I like the idea of finding someone to come to my home to cut it. May have to look into that. Good luck with the new blog and thanks for the competition. x

Great tips. To be honest, I’m having a hard time finding the right hairdresser for me.
