My appt. is this morning at 10. I’m figuring I’ll offer to pay for a full haircut, if that’s her issue, & remind her that her last “trim” set me back 3 months in the growth process. She’s been my stylist for many years. At first, I was going every 3 weeks to have my hair dyed dark to cover grey roots & since she’s a color specialist, when I decided to let my hair go its natural white/silver, she helped w/ that transition. She’s wonderful w/ color, toner, conditioning services, but the CUT scares me. Maybe it’s just me, but at 69, my hair’s not growing as fast as before. Every inch off is 2 steps backwards. 

 


@Shanus...I’ve always thought that a haircut is a haircut, regardless of whether it’s a trim or a “full” haircut. Is that no longer true?


@SurferWife She does trims for 1/2 price and free bang trims for regular customers....good deal, huh?

@Shanus...WOW! My hairdresser does free bang trims, but never charges les for a trim vs. whacking it off. I’m in a growing out stage right now so he just keeps the cut cleaned up so that it grows out nicely. Sometimes there is so little hair on the floor (I have healthy hair so there isn’t any damaged hair to cut off), I leave thinking “man, I just paid $85 for THAT!?”.

@SurferWife- I've never heard of a different price for a trim versus a cut either.  What a deal!
