Haircut coupons are a great way to save money regularly. Instead of paying full price on getting a haircut, by using vouchers or coupons you can get the same service on a discount, or even for free. Finding haircut coupons is not hard, though finding enough of them for the whole family may seem impossible. However, using the following tips, you cannot only find all the coupons for your family; you can also find the ones that offer the maximum discount:
Newspapers and Magazines
Coupons from local businesses are usually found in Sunday newspapers, and this is true for haircutting coupons too. Local as well as chain salons regularly offer discount offers in the Sunday paper to promote their business. When the discount offered is more than the price of the newspaper, which is often enough the case, it makes sense to get more than one newspaper to get multiple coupons of the same salon. Magazines on personal care and hairstyling also contain discount offers from different salons. Another way is to directly

ask your salon if they are offering any discounts.
Get Haircuts from Trainee Students.
Get Haircuts from Trainee Students. Some salons offer free haircuts when their students or interns do them. The students are not completely new to haircutting, so they cut hair almost as well as an experienced stylist. You should ask your local salon whether they offer free or discounted haircuts by a trainee student.
Use Groupon and other Coupon Aggregating Sites
Use Groupon and other Coupon Aggregating Sites. Groupon is one of the largest deal-of-the-day websites on the internet, and offers discount coupons for many different types of products and services, including for haircutting salons. You can subscribe to the personal care section on that site, and receive special offers made by salons in your city or region. Other sites, such as 8coupons.com, not only offer special discounts from salons, they also aggregate discount offers from sites such as Groupon. Google Offers and LivingSocial.com are also popular as discount websites. RetailMeNot.com is another site that offers great discounts on haircuts, apart from other services.
Visit Official Franchisee Websites
Visit Official Franchisee Websites. National haircutting franchisees such as Great Clips, Supercuts, Mastercuts, Sport Clips and Fantastic Sams almost always offer discounts and coupons on their respective websites. Many of them allow you to create a profile on their website, and earn reward points or free coupons. For example, after creating a profile at mastercuts.com you earn a free coupon worth $5, as well as 10% off on the all product purchases after first five services. Creating a profile at Supercuts.com gets you a $2 off coupon right away; afterwards you get $1 off for each reminder email you receive. Do not forget to check the box, which allows you to receive promotional coupons and discount offers when you sign up. With Great Clips, though you cannot create a profile on their website, you can still access free promotions on their promotions page.
Use Social Media Sites
Use Social Media Sites. Many salons reach out to their customers using social media sites such as Twitter and Facebook.com. By following the major national salons on twitter, you can find out about new promotions and discounts that may be offered by them. For example, Supercuts has a twitter profile, and they tweet about promotional surprise offers regularly. Indeed, they also offer a chance to win a $10 gift card to anyone who follows them on Twitter. Every national haircutting salon has a Facebook page, and they often post promotional offers and free coupons on their respective Facebook walls.
By using online discount sites such as Groupon, as well as your Sunday newspapers, you can easily get haircut coupons without spending too much effort in looking for them. If you need to, you can use social networking sites and more discount sites to get even more coupons. By using the steps outlined here, no one in your family should have to pay full price for a haircut ever.
