Has anyone ever paid to have thier hair cut a beauty/hair cutting college or school?

Are they worth the money to pay for a haircut? What is the typical price for a haircut a beauty/hair cutting college? How good of a haircut would you get for$5?What are people's experinces been like getting your hair cut at places like this?Were they good or bad?

I always get my hair cut at the college where I live and I have never had a bad cut or colour. The only downside I found was that often it takes longer than if you were go to a professional.

You have to remember that these are students and they are being graded on what they do and how well they do it, so they don't want to mess up your hair, they want it to look nice. Also, their teachers are always there to take a look and they will fix up anything (no matter how small) they think was missed.

I think I pay $15 for a cut there, which is more than 50% less than the price I pay at a regular salon. My younger brother goes there and gets his cut for $10.

We've both had great experiences and continue to go there. I think it's worth a shot, if it doesn't work out... It's just hair it grows.
