“The demand is insane!” comments Uwe Volz (63), foreman of the Stuttgart-Ludwigsburg hairdressers’ guild. “Women have longer hair, washing and cutting it usually takes three quarters of an hour. Men are done after half an hour. “
“Gender pricing: And what do you pay for your haircut?” is the name of the application. The Young Liberals also demand that shopkeepers should be prohibited from dividing their customers into male and female. It is “questionable with what right service providers judge the gender of their customers.”
