As an experiment I dressed better (shirt/tie) going to get a haircut, and as a result I got the best cut I've had in a long time. Has anyone else had this experience?

I tried the opposite. I got a haircut nude, and it was the WORST in my life!
So I agree with you!

At first I thought, "no way! I hope not!" Then I thought about the last perfect hair cut I got, which was about 12 yrs ago when I was a size 7, &it was easier to find clothes that reflected my personal style and also fit my body properly. Sometimes I wear whatever fits now, whether it looks like me or not, &I have a really hard time getting the haircut I want. Then I realized I've gotten "good" cuts, just not what I wanted. Probably my confidence level is not as high because I don't look like myself. The lower my confidence, the less effective my communication skills, the less likey I am to get the style I'm trying to ask for. I wonder what would happen if you asked your stylist how he/she feels about this...

Depends on the place. If it is a top notch salon..then YES. My sister and I both go to a top salon..I always dress decent..and she goes in a stained t shirt and sweatpants. Guess who gets the better cut and style? Of course they are going to take the time to style my hair better because it shows I care more about my appearance.
We are both moms and normally I run around in sweatpants and a tshirt..But, If I am going to the salon..I go ahead and primp my hair before hand to give my stylist an idea of how I like to wear it. She also knows that by simply giving me a quick style wont do.
Now if someone goes to a barbershop or fantastic sams, or costcutters etc..no I dont think it matters. These places do not take appointments and are used to people popping in after work, school etc.I have seen people wait like cattle (my hubby and son) around the salon to get their name called then "NEXT!"

Did you go to the same place that you always do??
Usually if you are new to a salon, and you come in looking put together, the stylist will most likely take her time and get it just right...your clothes state that you care about your appearance, and you may be picky about your hair.
If you come in looking disheveled, they would still give you a good hair cut, but maybe not take as much time doing it...
But....if you are going to the place that you always go to, and have the same stylist..then it was probably just luck of the draw to get a great cut...

No. I dressed in blue jeans last Saturday and also got a good hair cut. So there. It depends on who cuts your hair. There's one lady who is a complete hack at the borics I go to. I always ask for somebody else. If she's the one to cut my hair I just leave.

Well, I think it can depend. If you go in looking like you're fittin' to leave without pay, surely they won't be so dedicated to put as much effort into it. But I mean, there's usually conversation going on during the cut, so you'd think they could get a pretty good for for who you are. Course, I think bringing someone with you helps, as it sort of makes it harder to get a crappy cut if your friend or spouse, etc. can say "ew" or "ooh, aah" when you're all done. Guess it depends on where you go as well! :)

No... Never thought of it... More important things to do.. Besides, it would not work if you went to different salons.. Could be the stylist.. You would have to conduct your research in a controlled environment and use the same stylist to get a true representation....
OMG you just gave another group something to whine about being stereotyped and racial... Bush will be all over this too...

Better dressed people have more $ to spend on personal care, so the answer is yes.

No, I was all prettied up one day and decided to get my haircut.....the worst one I've ever had!! Sounds like you're making an assumption based on mere coincidence.
