Haircuts for actors and models
$30-$150
Can You Write Off Haircuts for Actors and Models?
Short answer: No: grooming is personal for performers, even with appearance clauses.
Styling done by a production for a shoot isn't income to you.
Records to keep: Keep receipts, 1099s or W-2s, a mileage log, and a note of the business purpose. W-2 employees should ask about employer reimbursement.
