Depending on your entrepreneurial skills, being a hairdresser can be a lot more profitable than you’d think. My wife’s hair dresser does exemplary work and has a terrific reputation in our area. She earns about $165 for an hour and a half worth of work, works ten hours a day, and is booked solid every day of the week three months out. This is in Texas, where the cost of living is not that high and I would guess she easily grossed around $200k+ last year alone. Yeah, if you just want to clock in and out at Great Clips and not be the best you can be, then it’s not a high paying profession, but for people that invest in their skills and learn how to market and build a solid client base, it’s actually crazy how much money some of them can make. I was very surprised by it.
