| First of all, let’s learn how to describe hair’s length, color, and texture! Hair Length Let’s keep it simple and describe the main kinds of hair length you’ll likely be using: One can have: · short hair 短发 (duǎnfà) · medium-length hair 中长发 (zhōng cháng fà) · shoulder-length hair 及肩发 (jí jiān fà) · long hair 长发 (cháng fà) So when your hair stylist 发型师 (Fǎxíng shī) or hairdresser 理发师 (lǐfà shī) asks you: How would you like your hair cut today? 你头发今天想要怎么剪？(Nǐ tóufa jīntiān xiǎng yào zěnme jiǎn?) Then you can say you want it shorter … 我想要剪短一点 (Wǒ xiǎng yào jiǎn duǎn yīdiǎn), trimmed 修 (xiū) and maybe also layered 层次 (céngcì). Then, if you also want to get hair bangs you can say 我想要刘海 (wǒ xiǎng yào liúhǎi). Hair Colour Would you like to get your hair coloured? That’s the way you say it in Chinese! I want to dye my hair 我想染发… (Wǒ xiǎng rǎnfà)… · platinum blond 亮金色 (liàng jīnsè) · ash brown 浅棕色 (qiǎn zōngsè) · auburn 红褐色 (hóng hésè) · chestnut 栗子色 (lìzǐ sè) · copper red 红铜色 (hóng tóng sè) · burgundy 酒红色 (jiǔ hóngsè) · natural black 自然黑 (zìrán hēi) · jet black 亮黑色 (liàng hēisè) Hair Texture One can have straight hair 直发 (zhífà), wavy hair 波浪 (bōlàng) or curly hair 卷发 (juǎnfà) (also 卷曲 juǎnqū). So you might be asked if you would like to have your hair straightened 你想把头发烫直吗? (nǐ xiǎng bǎtóufà tàng zhí ma) or if you want to get a perm 你想烫头发吗? (nǐ xiǎng tàng tóu fà ma). You might just want to: · get a shampoo 我只要洗头发 (wǒ zhǐyào xǐ tóu fà) · have a wash, cut and dry 我想要洗剪吹 (wǒ xiǎng yào xǐ jiǎn chuī) And finally, how to ask how much is it for your haircut in China? It’s easy, list all the treatment you got, for example, “wash and set” and ask how much is that all together? 洗+剪吹。。。一共是多少钱？(Yīgòng shì duōshǎo qián?).
