Whats the average pay for being a hair stylist?

I want to become a hair stylist and Im just trying to look at all my options and find out more information about cosmotology.. what is the average pay?Whats the average pay for being a hair stylist?
i get paid $17 an hour but i also work at a really good salon. it also depends on if you rent a booth or not. because you can rent booths for a payment every month and you get to keep all your profit. its hard though!Whats the average pay for being a hair stylist?
if you're good you can do really well. i know people like that and they are able to charge hundreds of dollars just for a haircut or color. renting a booth or getting your own business can make you very successful. i know people who have only been working less than a year in the hairstyling industry and they're rolling in like 50,000 dollars on average. you can do very well!
It depends on where you live. I know in the city I live in it is like between 10-15 an hour. Also a normal haircut would cost 25 bucks. In a city one and a half hours away from me(bigger city) It costs over 100 to get a cut done so I imagine they make more there. Just ask around in your city/town.
depends what kind of a salon you work at and where you live. i work in a chain salon in PA and get paid minimum wage, $7.15/hr. so i really rely on tips. so make sure you tip your stylist good haha
