The issue with getting your hair did is that...what else would you expect from this blog? It's expensive. To get your hair done at a nice place is...expensive.
Jose Eber - probably one of the best salons out there charges a minimum of $125 for a haircut. Some better salons in the midwest charge between $70 and $95 for an experienced person to cut your hair.
The thing about a good haircut is, to grow your hair out properly, you need to have it cut properly.
| Salon | Location | Hair Cut Price |
| Jose Eber | Beverly Hills | $125+ |
| Dominic Michael | St. Louis | $41-$95 |
| Aveda Ethos | St. Louis | $35-$70 |
| Great Clips | St. Louis | $16 |
So here is my thought. Invest in a good haircut. For the touchups, go to Fantastic Sams or Great Clips or one of those other $15-$20 places.
Let's say you go to the expensive salon every other time for a haircut, substituting the cheap salon. You just saved $241 per year. Enough for a mini-family trip, or a new school wardrobe, or one very expensive night out. If the cheaper salon messes up, the expensive salon will fix it.
| Hair Cut Scenario | Average Haircut Price | # times per year to get a haircut | Cost per year |
| All High Salon | $ 97 | 6 | $ 580 |
| Half Cheap Salon | $97/$16 | 3/3 | $ 339.00 |
| Two Expensive | $97/$16 | 2/4 | $ 258.00 |
| Savings | |||
| Half Cheap Salon | $ 241 | ||
| Two Expensive | $ 322 |
Another option, raised by a very good friend of mine with hard-to-cut hair, is to get your hair cut half as often as your stylist recommends. :) Thanks, friend, for pointing this out!!
Enjoy your sassy new look! And enjoy that extra money too. :)
