How much is too much for a haircut?
#71
I have taken a picture or picked one out of their style mags and still not looked anything like it!
First life after high school I went to beauty school and it really gripes me to have to come home and even up the sides or bangs no matter what the price was! Now I make them double check and then I check it!
In this town I have yet to have a really good haircut low end, mid-range or top price. Did get one in Denver while visiting a couple years ago and for $65 got the best cut I have had since CA.

$11 includes the tip for a haircut from a lovely young lady - who has her shop in her garage next to her home in the country - so she is close at hand if her hubby needs her in the field, or help with the cows, or bringing in a newborn calf; a jolly person, who just makes your day! and being from the farm myself, and living on one, we can wile away the time just talking "farm"........ no gossip, just farm talk.....

I pay $30 for shampoo, cut and style (I have short hair). Color highlights and cut is about $100.00. I have been going to the same person for about 15 yrs.
One place my DD used to go was $100.00 for cut, extra for blow dry and even more for style. She had a permanent color put on for lots of bucks by them, it did not last a week. They would not stand behind it, she no longer goes there.

I met my stylist at a begininers quilting class!!!
She also grew up in the same area in SK that I did, and knows my parents neighbours.
I finally bit the bullet and went to her, and I paid $55 for a cut, blowdry, and intense conditoner. Normally it's about $80 or so.
I've helped her out with some stuff, and she appreciates it, so she pampers me when I go to the salon.
I used to do my own color, but I go to a beauty school and I think it's about $40 or so, but I love the color so it's worth not having the mess in my bathroom.
I went to beauty school, so I do the boy's hair (they won't let anyone else touch it) and when I have time I will do the boy's dad's hair.

Haven't had a perm for 20 yrs. Get it cut every 4-6 wks. It varies, and only pay $10 for shampoo & cut. When all of the family was growing up, I cut the boys (5) and hubby's myself. I'm not a professional but must admit I did do a pretty good job. Eventually my FIL had me cut his.

I pay $22 for a wash and cut and always give a $2 tip for wash and $5 tip to the hairdresser.I think the hair dressers work very hard and deserve a good tip.The young girl that washes my hair is in training and she couldn't believe it when I gave her a tip, guess it doesn't happen much.

I am a retired hairdresser and pay $25.00 for a haircut every 4 weeks too. I also have thick, wavy hair. If you are happy with your haircuts then you are paying the right amount. I used to travel two hours to get my haircut. But the person who cut it was the one who taught me to cut. And she was very good.
