Why do white people feel stingy when they cut their hair?

Actually, there are many reasons behind "expensive" and "ugly".

The first is that the selection surface is relatively narrow. Compared with different levels of domestic beauty and hairdressing resources, most barbershops in developed countries in Europe and America have similar grades and levels. At the same time, hairdressing is a skilled job, and not many foreigners are willing to make a living by hairdressing skills, which leads many countries to open up and encourage hairdressers to emigrate, such as Canada and New Zealand, and a large number of people apply for hairdressing skilled immigrants every year.

In addition, the labor costs in developed countries in Europe and America are very high, and most of them are calculated by the hour. Employees who work no more than 8 hours a day can get paid leave of nearly 1 month/year. These costs are transferred to consumers, and the price of haircuts is naturally higher. In Britain, the average boy gets a haircut of about 20-30 kg, and the RMB is about from 200 yuan to 300 yuan. Of course, the "expensive" here is converted into RMB. If converted into local currency, the price is only 2 hours' salary.

Many people will say that it is ok to get a haircut abroad, as long as it looks better and is fashionable than at home.

However, this is not the case. Due to the aesthetic differences between the East and the West, many international students and overseas residents complain that foreign hairstyles are very ugly. Aesthetically, Europeans and Americans simply don't understand the feelings of Asians. Asians have wide heads and many kinds of hairstyles. Inch boards, airplane heads, big backs, toilet seats and the like are difficult to trim. In Europe and America, many people are born with fluffy curls and don't need hair dyeing and styling, which makes most white hairdressers very unskilled when perming boys. Most of them are not familiar with the layering, radian and popular hairstyles in East Asia. In addition, many hairdressers like to subjectively add their own artistic ideas to their hairstyles. If you think he is ugly, he will half-jokingly say that you don't understand aesthetics.

Of course, the most important point is the language problem.

Hairdressing involves many specific English vocabulary, which is unheard of for international students who are used to academic vocabulary. For example: bangs, eccentric distribution, intermediate distribution, pruning, layered distribution, hair-binding style, haircut is not a haircut, but a haircut. Sometimes a word or two is missing, and the hairstyle you see is completely different. For example, foreigners' understanding of "a little haircut" is completely different from ours. Therefore, more international students are willing to go to barbershops in China, but many barbershops in China are so popular that they need to make an appointment all the time. Barbers only cut and don't wash. As a result, many people simply do it themselves, but the hairstyle is really pleasing.

A few days before going abroad, I will choose a good barber shop and let the barber cut my hair as short as possible, so that the "expensive and ugly" experience will come later.
