Explanation

Hey Buddy, it is problem with the type you used which is string. When we want to take input as a number, we need to use integer. Added total as well.

Code

#include <iostream>
#include <string>

using namespace std;

int main()
{
cout << "Welcome to Neeky's Bulk Hair!" << endl;

cout << "Who do I have the pleasure of speaking with today?" << endl;

string Name;
cout << "Enter name: ";
cin >> Name;

string Items;
cout << "What items will you be purchasing today " << Name << ": ";
cin >> Items;

cout << "Those items are available for you today!" << Name << endl << endl;

int Item1;
cout << "Enter price for item1: ";
cin >> Item1;

int Quantity1;
cout << "Quantity for this item: ";
cin >> Quantity1;

int Item2;
cout << "How much is item2: ";
cin >> Item2;

int Quantity2;
cout << "Quantity for this item: ";
cin >> Quantity2;

int Item3;
cout << "How much is item3: ";
cin >> Item3;

int Quantity3;
cout << "Quantity for this item: ";
cin >> Quantity3;

int Item4;
cout << "How much is item4 : ";
cin >> Item4;

int Quantity4;
cout << "Quantity for this item: ";
cin >> Quantity4;

int Item5;
cout << "How much is item5: ";
cin >> Item5;

int Quantity5;
cout << "Quantity for this item: ";
cin >> Quantity5;

cout << "Item1 + Item2 + Item3 + Item4 + Item5 = " << Item1 + Item2 + Item3 + Item4 + Item5 << endl;

cout << "Total = " << Item1*Quantity1 + Item2*Quantity2 + Item3*Quantity3 + Item4*Quantity4 + Item5*Quantity5 << endl;

system("Pause");
return 0;

}

Please rate it if you are good with it. Happy learning!
