Difference between expensive salon and a place like super cuts?

What exactly is the different between playing 35-60 for a haircut and paying 18-25 for one at a place like super cuts or great clips? Are the stylists better trained? Or is it just how they present themselves as a business?Difference between expensive salon and a place like super cuts?
Many of the stylists that work in lower end salons, such as Great Clips and Super Cuts, are just starting out in the hairdressing business. It's a popular place for them to start because they're guaranteed an hourly rate, unlike other salons where you only profit when you have an established clientele. Also, because they are hourly paid, though sometimes they get an extra commission, they tend to not pay as much attention to detail and be as thorough because they're getting paid no matter what... And getting paid very little. It is common in salons like these for the stylists to rush, too. The reason for this being that it's almost impossible to make a decent profit in a salon that barely charges for their services, so in order for them to make money, they have to service more clients.


In a more upscale salon atmosphere, salon staff tend to have a better appreciation for the clients and will take the time to talk with them and pay attention to what they're saying. They will focus on the details and take their time.


Of course, you'll have good and bad stylists in both types of salons, but the account that I've given is the standard ';given'; for salons.Difference between expensive salon and a place like super cuts?
the difference i find is that, a salon clearly listens to what you want and they have great service. you can find a place with good service and good prices too. i go to trade secret and it is excellent. they wash your hair very well instead of just spritzing it, and ask you what you want. they even ask where you want the part in your hair. the people are very nice too. sometimes at a place like super cuts they don't always listen to what you want and the people are crabby sometimes.
