I used to be a hairdresser and family and friends thought I should do their hair for free. One family member owned an appliance shop. I needed a new tv and a new stove. I had just finished doing their daughters hair for her wedding and her bridal party. I received no payment and it wasn't a gift. The whole day was devoted to her party. They wanted me to take a tv not on sale and no discount and pay $60.00 in shipping and delivery. I walked but not before giving them the bill for the bridal party. I still have yet to be compensated. Went to another shop a customer owned bought both appliances, tv and stove and received a 35% discount and free delivery. [QUOTE=KalamaQuilts;7185671]

Hairdressers often say the same thing...charge family and friends. Otherwise they complain long and hard about their free haircut until they come back for the next free cut.
