Getting your hair cut can be a risk no matter whether communication is happening in the same language or not, let alone the same native country. So it might be good to be prepared with some background knowledge before heading in to a hair salon in Russia. Of course, you can always be experimental and let the hair stylist do anything, so check out how to talk about hair in Russian.
It's a nice article, but the trouble with knowing the questions, is that you need to be able to understand the answer!
I have had a haircut in Ukraine, I studied the signs before I went in, to try to understand what it would cost. It was very quiet, not busy, no appointment necessary.
Somehow I got a satisfactory result, with no nasty surprises.
I offered some money that I expected to be more than enough, and was told that is was the correct amount...
(Maybe 'foreigner price'.)
