the problem is too that this is the only really like "funky" place around. as I said, these are more like edgy streaks than like "pretty" hair. I went there for that specific purpose, because everywhere else I went just didn't get the concept I was going for.
ahhhh i see. well maybe talk to her next time and let her know how it made you feel. if she acts like a bitch about it....i guess it's a matter of what it's worth to you.

yeah the hipsters are intimidating though! .
but seriously, I went to a wonderful place before, the woman was talented and the pricing was about the same, but my hair always looked boring!

if it was me, and she still acts like a dummy, then maybe go to the place you went before adn show her what you want. even if it's something they don't normally do, i'm sure for the right price she'll get funky
Haircuts for women are expensive! They are more expensive in the city, but a wash, cut and blowdry costs at least $40. I use natural instincts for the grey!
as for this situation, I wouldn't comment when someone is doing my hair b/c then she could jack it up
but when she was done I would have said something about her comments and no way would I have given her a tip, that's like encouraging bad service.

I used to use natural instincts. I did not believe my friend when she said it dried out her hair. It ended up breaking mine!
but I think that this person who did GTD's hair is stuck up. my younger half sister used to work at a snooty salon and think their doo doo does not stink!

I would love to see pics. Not because I'm astonished at the price. (Get over the price, kids. :rolleyes: ) Just because it probably looks cool and I want to see it!
Highlights are expensive, but I love them so much more than all-over color. I need to get some done again.

Home color kits dry my hair out something awful. I did a few this summer and regretted it... I'm not going to do it ever again.

really? It doesn't do that for me? Hmm. I'm a big fan of it. It's the only non permanent color out there. I had a bad dye experience. Someone was helping me color it red, and dyed it blonde first and then it came out looking like bright orange! :eek:
I had to go to a place in the city to make it brown again, and ever since, my hair is darker than it used to be! :(
so if I went lighter I'd have terribly dark roots.
highlights might be fun though...

that sucks that she was rude to you...i'd be too uncomfortable to go back if i were you!
stylists hate to see me coming....my hair is soooo thick, there's just so much of it. i have to hear about it every time i go to the salon. it takes them about 45 minutes just to blow dry my hair...i hate it! i've had highlights done at a fancy salon...cost me $200 as well. and i tipped extra on account of my hair being down to my waist...it was very time consuming!!
i haven't had my hair colored in a salon in years. i've resorted to doing hair shows. free cut and color, done by the top stylists in the industry. and i get to call myself a "model" you just have to be open to letting them do whatever they want to your hair...i ended up w/ a quasi-mullet a couple years ago :eek:
yes...i do feel like a human. i do not feel like a tree.
I started coloring to get the grey out :( and paid $250 for a cut & highlight (I have long curly hair). They were cool and it was a great experience.. but.. yeah... Nice & Easy, $5.99, Walgreens
I highlight other people's hair from the store-bought kits and they look just as good as a professional!
I still do pay about $60 + tip for a cut every 2 months...
About once every 3 months or so.........Sen, Yeild2pearljam and I sit around and do fun stuff to our hair at my place. It usually makes for a long, messy fun night (Cheap too) and it never looks like it wasn't done by a professional :eek: Sen bleaches all of our hair (parts of it) and then we add fun colors. My last hair color was FISHBOWL. It was fun

let me see if I can get a pic...it's always hard to see it in different lights, and I'm terrible at taking photos of myself.
thankfully i don't think i have one!! with hair shows...you never know what you look like until awhile after the show. imagine my suprise when i saw my crazy makeup (a pink explosion all over my face) and my overly styled mullet. at least the color looked good, dark brown w/ platinum blonde highlights underneath.
i'll see what i can dig up.
yes...i do feel like a human. i do not feel like a tree.
I know it's not an outrageous price for what you had done...but damn, it is nice to not have to deal with this kind of shite now that I'm single again....$200 every couple months for hair...$50 a month for nails...$50 a month for tanning minutes, unused $300 gym passes, $40 face creams, the occasional manicure/pedicure, waxing, new fucking shoes and purses every two weeks....all for me :rolleyes:

it took me forever to figure out what you meant here...then I figured out that you were a guy. But seriously, YOU paid for all your wife's shit when you were married? Crap, I need to get married. (but seriously don't complain if you volunteered to pay for it! and besides, some of that stuff you listed is definitely no necessary, but some of it is. it sucks, women have to spend sooooo much more money than men).
I won't spend more that $15 for a haircut.. my hair looks fine.
If I have to spend more than twice that, I'll start cutting my own hair. I mean, its just hair. There's people starving in the world.

where on earth are you finding $15 hair cuts? the GUY I work with was going nuts trying to find one for under $40.
yes, there ARE starving people in the world. are you giving all the extra money you save on your righteous haircuts to starving people???
God, I'm sorry I posted how much the damn cut and color cost if I knew I was going to get this much f-ing flack. I was trying to make a point about how poor the service was. and AGAIN, the CUT did not cost $200, the STREAKS did. jesus, you try to do something cool and change your appearance and get some streaks in your hair and suddenly your causing all the problems in the world. I met a guy last night who bought a $1000 prada bag. I think that's beyond nuts, but to each his f-ing own.

Don't take any offense!.. I'm just talking about myself..
Mens haircut at Supercuts is $11.95 plus tip.. I know the ladies there and they do just a good a job as I've spent at a fancy place.

lol...well...I won't bore you with the details of our financial squabbles... I didn't pay for everything...we both worked... but our money was shared, and it ended up being a constant struggle over what WAS necessary, and what was fair....I def didn't volunteer to spend that money.
That said...I understand the fact that women DO have to spend way more than men just to look 'normal', and have to spend ridiculous amounts to look 'good'....and I do like a woman that takes care of herself, takes pride in her appearance, etc....but then, there is a difference between having nice clothes, makeup, being well groomed.... and being stupidly high maintenance.
I color my own hair and I do my highlights as well...I get my hair trimmed about every three months, maybe every two months! The prices nowadays in salons are outrageous!! :eek:

no way, it goes with everything I wear...I have loved Burberry since forever and this past Christmas he gave me the Burberry perfume and then the Burberry scarf and then for my Birthday he gave me the Burberry wallet, for Valentine's it's the Burberry purse...I guess I will be Burberry everything!! I LOVE IT!!
Now all I need is the Burberry raincoat!!

Exactly. Almost everyone with disposable income has *something* on which they spend "too much" money. I don't see what the big deal is.
I probably don't need every episode of The Price Is Right on DVD, but I'm gonna get them!! Money well spent!!
