Twitch star Kai Cenat has sparked a lively discussion online after stating that he would never spend more than $100 on a haircut.
This comment has generated a lot of talk among fans and followers.
In North America, prices for many services have been rising due to inflation, and the hair salon industry is no exception.
Over the past few years, the cost of haircuts, manicures, and similar services has significantly increased.
Kai is among the top earners on the internet and has expressed frustration over this trend.
During a Twitch stream in January 2025, he shared that he opted to shave his own beard instead of calling a barber.
He mentioned that doing it himself helped him save a lot of money.
Kai even joked that he saved $100 by not going to his barber.
He expressed his disbelief at the high prices, saying it’s outrageous to pay so much for a haircut.
He pointed out that barbers are now charging extra, especially those who come to your home.
Kai emphasized that he doesn’t think any haircut is worth $100, no matter who the barber is.
After his comments, a spirited debate erupted online. Some fans supported Kai’s perspective, agreeing that haircuts have become excessively pricey. Others, however, felt he was being frugal and suggested he should be willing to pay for quality service.
One user on social media remarked that they understood Kai’s frustration, pointing out how expensive haircuts can be nowadays. Another threw in a playful jab, recommending he go to a budget salon instead to save money.
Conversely, some people defended the cost of haircuts, arguing that for many, it is an investment in appearance. They pointed out that personal grooming is important, especially for those in the public eye like Kai.
This is not the first time Kai has stirred conversations with his online presence. Just that same week, he inadvertently ignited another debate after his friends teased a robot during a stream.
Kai’s candid remarks about haircuts highlight how rising costs affect even the most successful individuals and continue to spark discussions about spending priorities in today’s economy.
