A Third of Us Wish Our Hairstylist Would Cut the Chit-Chat
A new poll found half of us get our hair cut at least once every three months. So here’s a question . . .
Do you like it when your barber or stylist makes CHIT-CHAT? Or do you wish they’d zip it and focus on not lopping an ear off?
30% of us prefer it when our stylist DOESN’T make small talk. 65% enjoy it, and 5% don’t care either way.
Here are a few more quick hairstyle stats . . .
1. The most common hair color in America is brown. 33% of us have brown hair . . . 18% said black . . . 22% said gray or white . . . 15% said blond . . . and only 4% have red hair.
2. Around 1 in 20 people had gray or white hair as a TODDLER. 6% said it was one of those colors when they were just a year old. (Wow, I thought Anderson Cooper went gray early.)
3. 26% of Americans say they’re a “natural blond.” But there’s an asterisk with that one. A third of us think it still counts even if you were blond as a kid, but your hair darkened as you got older.
4. Have you ever dyed your hair? Over half of us have. 81% of women, and 34% of men.
5. If a guy dyes his hair, should he dye his beard the same color? 44% say yes. 21% say no, or at least don’t think too matchy-matchy is a good look. 35% don’t have an opinion on such things.
6. 15% of us cut our own hair. Another 6% said they never PAY for a haircut. So those people either have a friend or spouse who does it. (Or they’re the Crystal Gayle type with hair down to their ankles.)
7. What term do you use for a hair tie? That’s the most popular term, but 21% of us call it a “hair band” instead . . . and 18% say “ponytail holder.”
