Cheap haircuts in Paris

Getting your hair cut, as much as it is necessary, can be quite expensive, especially in Paris. Here are three solutions to getting a haircut without it costing you an arm and a leg.

Training academies

Do not be afraid to get your hair cut by a trainee hairdresser, they are always surrounded by professionals to ensure you don’t suffer any disastrous chop! You do need to be prepared, however, to spend longer at the hairdresser’s and to have restrictions on what you can ask for. It is common to have to accept having your hair cut to a certain length, or to have your colouring and cut on different days.
The services can be free but often cost around €10, or even less, for a cut. Here are some training academies in Paris:

    “Low cost” hairdressers

    “Low cost” hairdressers often charge up to 40% less than regular salons. Seeing as working time accounts for 50% of the cost of service, low cost stylists use cutting techniques that are faster, while keeping a professional edge. They can often be found within train stations, shopping centres, and other areas with high traffic. They don’t take appointments though. As there are fewer services offered they are able to lower their charge rates, and clients are regularly asked to arrive with prewashed hair so as to save on time. A simple cut generally costs €10, but it must be noted that thicker or longer hair may inccur a €10 surcharge. Amongst the chains of “low cost” hairdressers you can find Tchip coiffure, Coiff & Co, and Beauty Bubble.
