Missunderstood is clearly misunderstood. (The first girl who posted). Part of the service of cutting your hair is to wash it also. You must be going to a really cheapy place, or a very unprofessinal hairstylist if he/she isn't washing before cutting and styling. Or...you are paying $10 for just a cut. You don't have to ask for them to wash your hair- it's part of the services of a wash, cut and basic style. You should go to another hair salon if this one isn't washing your hair.

BTW, the only reason they would do a "dry cut" first then wash after is if you're getting hair color done.

Basically, if you have a lot of hair, or a lot of product in it, you should ALWAYS have it washed. Spritzing it down will not make the cut very even, neither will dry-cutting it. I think if they don't wash it, they're either lazy, or a chop-n-go type shop, and don't return if they don't.

There are a few ways that Hairdressers cut one's hair.

Ususally they should ask you, "Do you want your hair washed". You either accept the offer or decline.

They either charge you for it or its free of charge.

So, whenever you go to a salon, make sure you state if you want your hair shampooed and conditioned. If they have a problem with it. Leave.

However if you always have gel in your hair, it may pay to get your hair washed. Before getting it cut.
