A cut-and-color by one of the hairdresser's (female) at Cal's Barber Shop here in TV costs $68.00. Same time spent. Same result.

Is this "fair"?

And why or why not?

To answer your question, using this scenario this is fair in a free market economy. As we evolve fairness is going to get worse. For example we are loosing GP doctors and other lower specialty doctors at a rapid rate since a lot of doctors are getting advanced certificates and making 5X(and even more) than a GP and there is very little financial incentive for a GP. Had an achilles tendon surgery 10 years ago and doctor was paid $800 for a 1 hour surgery and 3 office visits and he was a specialist. I expected a bill for about $2,000 and would have paid it in a heartbeat if I did not have insurance.

A few days ago I received an email from a LPGA tournament up in Michigan this summer. They were selling day passes for $10 and they were good Thursday though Sunday. I believe that one of the reasons why the purses are so low.

If you want to watch something funny about this topic, YouTube "Bill Burr women's sports". Lots of swearing but really funny.
