    I'm still looking!!!!
    If I could find just the right stylist, I would pay whatever was asked for. As it is, I have an adequate stylist and pay $25. I gave up on colour.

    No $28 seems reasonable especially since you have curly hair. DH colors my hair. I went to about a hair cut a year because of the economy.

    I pay about $30 for a hair cut and blow dry. When I get my highlights, the total is $80. I use to go every 5 weeks but now strreetchhhh that out. My hair has always been fine and flat so when I find someone who does it good, I tend to stick with her. My hair has gotten better with "age" "like a fine wine". It's all the gray which gives it body but it's colored blonde!! LOL

    I live in our Capital city area so you can get an $8 H/C or a $250 H/C. :)

    I pay $25 including tip. I have natural wavy hair and this cut is cheap. Thank God I finally found someone who knows what she is doing. It is worth the price when it is done right. Every 5-6 weeks.

    I also have very difficult hair to cut. Very thick, coarse and curly. It's very hard for me to find someone who not only knows how to cut my type of hair but also wants to cut it! I've had beautitians complain nonstop about my hair so I never went back to them. I have one lady now that's been doing my hair for 14 years and she's really good. $28 plus I give her either a 20 or 25 percent tip depending on how long she spends on my hair. She spends at least an hour, sometimes more. Thats just cutting and styling. But, she has to throughly wet my hair first and shampoo it afterwards. When it's cold she blow dries it at no extra charge. But I tip well for a job very well done.
