Hi,
I was wondering if while refering to somebody having their hair cut the verb 'get' is used for men, and 'have' for women. Is there really such a difference in their usage?

Intellectually I agree with ems. However, I have a sneaking suspicion that 'get' is a stronger, more masculine word than 'have'. I feel that men are more likely to get their hair cut, their cars repaired, their teeth fixed, etc, and that women are more likely to have these things done.
I offer no evidence for this; it's just a personal feeling.
