If they charge by time they have an incentive to take their time

Not necessarily. Depends on how you structure the additional charges. Presumably an operator would be better off cutting more heads at a lower cost than fewer at a higher cost. If you charge 12 bucks for your basic cut, say fifteen minutes, and 16 for a lengthy one, up to thirty minutes, you'd be better off doing more quick cuts.
