75€ for a Hair Cut in Germany? Cutting My Own Hair at Home

Living in Germany as an expat comes with many surprises—like realizing a simple 5cm hair trim in Bonn costs 75 Euros. So, at 11 PM on a random Tuesday night, instead of sleeping, I made the very spontaneous decision to take matters into my own hands and cut my hair at home. Between salon prices and German hard water (Kalkwasser)—where high mineral content like calcium and magnesium coats the hair shaft, blocking moisture, and causing super dry split ends—I decided it was time for a DIY trim. Watch to see my honest, non-professional results (spoiler: it’s not perfect, but I'm actually pretty satisfied!). #DIYHaircut #HaircutAtHome #expatlifestyle
