A woman's perfect haircut involves having two inches cut off, a head massage - and exchanging two pieces of gossip with the hairdresser, a study has revealed.
Researchers found the ideal hair appointment will also take place around 12.30pm on a Saturday afternoon, and involve reading at least one magazine and the consumption of one tea or coffee.
The whole event will also take just over an hour in total and be at a salon less than 16 kilometres from their home.
The stats emerged in a study by Toni&Guy, commissioned to mark the salons' 50th year anniversary.
'For many women, having their hair cut or styled is a time for them to relax and unwind, even if it's just for an hour or so,' Sacha Mascolo-Tarbuck, Global Creative Director for Toni&Guy, said.
The study of 2000 women found that in an ideal world, the hair appointments will take place every nine weeks and involve a cut or colour, or just a trim of two inches off her locks.
But rather than just one style, women want to be able to style their hair several ways, wanting a cut which can have at least two different looks.
Once they are settled in the hairdresser's chair, women want to be offered one drink, with tea or coffee named as the most popular beverage choice.
Almost half of women also said that no hair appointment is complete without a head massage while they read a magazine.
It also emerged that women want to hear an average of two pieces of gossip from their hairdresser, with the most popular topics of conversation found to be local news, TV shows and celebrity gossip.
However, not everyone enjoys a natter as almost a quarter would like to relax and enjoy the peace and quiet without any conversation with their stylist during their appointment.
Almost every woman polled also said their perfect hair cut would mean seeing the same stylist each time.
The study found that 83 percent of women enjoy going to get their hair cut or styled at a hair salon, but one in five admitted they would like it even more if they could sit in a massaging chair while having their locks seen too.
Another 16 percent also said their perfect appointment would be complete if they were offered chocolate to cake to tuck into.
