Cost of living: Hairdressers

BBC World Service - Business Daily, Cost of living: Hairdressers

How rising power and product prices are affecting hairdressers around the world.

As part of our cost of living mini series we take a look at how hairdressers are coping as the price of power, and cost of hair products, continues to increase.

In this Business Daily mini series we're exploring how businesses we all use regularly are being affected by the cost of living crisis. This episode looks at how hairdressers are coping as the price of power and hair products continues to increase.

Leanna Byrne speaks to hairdressers in South Africa, the USA and Germany – all report difficulties with rising overheads and the need to start passing those costs on to customers. We also look at how one haircare brand, selling direct to consumers, is seeing increased sales but also increased manufacturing costs and longer turn-around times.
