The real reason some hair takes longer to cut than others ...
Is texture. Stylists say fine hair is quicker to cut than thick hair and that texture matters more than length. So if you know you have really thick hair, be prepared for a slightly longer appointment.
And along those lines, if you are in a rush, make an appropriate appointment. A blow-out is quick, a cut or color is not. And tell your stylist ahead of time that you're in a hurry so he or she is prepared.
