Hair Cuts for Males & Females
Hello: Why does it only cost a man $25.00 for a hair cut and nearly $100.00 for a woman? I think this is discrimination and I never really liked that they soak women like that. It's the same with clothing and shoes, women will invariably pay a much higher premium for clothing then men. I think this is wrong, unfortunately there isn't much I can do about it. The reason I thought of this today is because I was out shopping for a shoot and womens clothing and shoes are outrageously priced. Especially for good quality items. Any thoughts on this matter?

I get my hair cut for 12 bucks (I'm a woman) and I'm happy with it. I don't think it's practical to shell out 100 bucks just to go to Gadabout. I could be using that money on shoes dammit! lol.
