How much does a cut and color cost in the US?

A cut and color is typically advertised between $100 and $300 per visit, with most quotes around $175 — figures as of September 2026, from published 2025–26 US cost guides (Angi, HomeGuide, HomeAdvisor, Thumbtack, StyleSeat, CareCredit, GoodRx and others). Your metro, the provider and what's included all move the price, so the advertised rate is rarely the price you have to pay.
