If you or someone in your family could use a haircut but you’re a little short on cash this month, don’t let this challenging economy keep you from looking your best. Check out these tips and tricks for saving cash on family haircuts and other salon treatments.

Brave

Go online and search for beauty schools in your area. BeautySchoolsDirectory.com is one option that lists barber and cosmetology schools by state or “near me” for the entire country. If you are lucky enough to have one located nearby, you and your family can save as much as 50 percent to 75 percent off the cost of a haircut and other salon services. Just keep in mind that this is a learning institution, so don’t be in a hurry.
All cuts or other salon services, including color, are supervised by a licensed instructor. These schools need real live people on which to practice what they are learning. Request an appointment with a senior student.

Braver

Keep your hairstyle simple. Whether your hair is long or short, make it manageable and low maintenance. This goes for all family members.
