If you’d like to get a simple trim, one can just use any pair of scissors  to cut the  hair by themselves;

But, if you would like a particular style, then you would need skilled hair stylist to create a look for you.

For a long time, hair stylists used only one kind of scissors that were one length (a longer pair of scissors)

Vidal Sassoon innovated the industry by using shears that were shorter, about 5 inches, to incorporate in a geometric haircut.
Since then, the industry has evolved into developing different techniques and different instruments to create a specific look to control and define the hair.
For instance,
some different techniques used are:
stroke cut, slice cut, razor cut, razor sculpture, and hair volume control, just to name a few.
Now to use those techniques, the stylist has to study, practice, and hone their skills to achieve the desired result.
Some people don’t comprehend that haircuts must be priced at different price points.
They still stick to the archaic belief that haircuts should all have the same standard price, with no discrepancies in price.
Vidal Sassoon changed the beauty industry in another manner by pricing the haircuts by the level of skill the stylist has achieved.
For instance, a haircut with an apprentice would cost differently than with a master cutter.
So, the price of the haircut would vary, depending on the skill level of the stylist.
At the same time, the stylist would charge the same price across the board, without any price changes in the techniques that were used.For example, when we do hair color, the price would vary depending on the techniques and colors used.  I think  this concept should carry over in haircuts as well.
