Cuts hair for people

Can I say,

(a) The barber cuts hair for people.

(b) The barber cuts hair / hairs for customers.
  

Top answer

You can say: The barber cuts hair for people. OR The barber cuts hair for customers. 'Hairs' are individual pieces of hair, so it wouldn't be appropriate to use that word in this situation.
