I think it's meant to be reflect the type of car a female hairdresser would drive. A smaller, "cute" car that is simply something to be seen in and no real performance.

Typically this label has been put on small, low powered, convertible coupes or sports cars. The cars I've heard tagged with the name are the VW Golf Cabriolet, Mazda Miata, and a convertable Mustang with the base engine.

The Cabriolet and Mustang *might* deserve the title, but I watch big guys squeeze themselves into tiny Miata's on autocross weekeds and then destory the competition, so I'd give that car a pass.

Honestly, I haven't heard the term in quite a while and even then from older guys. Hopefully the stereotypes have fallen away.

For me it means,

Take care of the car that belongs to the person that cuts your hair.


This belongs to the lady that cuts my hair,

Same idea goes with those that prepare your food.

Well, this topic is a well debated one for a looooon time but the one SOLID choice is the VW Cabrio, no doubt about it. Being from Detroit it would be said something like the Miata is one of those cars but when you hear that nonsense just know your speaking to a "non-car guy", same thing with the MINI or 500, although it helps having the perf version of both....oh yeah, I should've mentioned that earlier when I brought up the Crossfire/MINI comment, guess the ES has already made me forget the Abarth, how can this be

Honda Fit????

Basic transportation car, a swiss army knife because of what you could put in it and how you could configure the seats. I needed a car at that point in my life and couldn't keep the MINI, so Honda put me in a car with the economy going south and a recent divorce. Had that car been a stick I would've kept it, it was driving me nutz, so I found another stick attached to the CR-Z, another "hairdrssers" car, maybe to some but I liked that car too...needed more powah, the Abarth took care of that

You mean things like Fiat and Mini coopers and WW Beetles?

Some cars appeal more to women, nothing wrong with that. Actually it's a good thing cause most of the other models are more geared towards men.

Prime example of "shaming" people for liking what they like.

I see more males in fiats and mini coopers than women.... opposite in beetles
