Tipping home-based hair stylists
Comments (5)I used to go to a home based salon and the hairdresser (owner) had a sign up saying tipping wasn't allowed. I totally agree with this since she gets all the profits. Just last week I paid $105 for color and a haircut! I notice that hair salons don't break down the various services by price anymore - they just give you the total. My hair color was just an all over color that I could have achieved at home. It came out so dark that I bought a Loreal Highlighting kit the next day. It comes with the all over color and the highlights. I bought Toasted Coconut (the kits are on sale for $12.99 at RiteAid this week only). I used the highlight part and put some highlights in my hair and I am very pleased with it. When my roots show I will use the all over color part of the kit and touch up the roots and maybe blend some into the end. It is virtually foolproof but if you want some highlights in the back it would be easier to ask a friend or daughter - or a last resort husband - to do the back since that can be tricky. I've used this kit before and it is just as good as anything I've gotten at a salon. I've actually gotten compliments on my hair, something I didn't get when I was paying $100-$200! Also, I no longer automatically add 20% to my bill because of the outrageous prices they are charging. $10 is my limit, no matter what. Call me cheap, but I'm not a fool....See MoreQuestion for Hair Stylists or those who Quit Coloring
Comments (23)I stopped at 52 - now 54 and while the sides are turning it is still dark underneath. As I was getting my hair done for thanksgiving I decided that I could better use that $200 for other things - that I would really enjoy ( I hated the time and $$ I spent on getting it colored) My hairdresser was not happy about my decision but I am thrilled. I did just let it grow out - and I am the first one to admit my hair is better for it. It looks and feels so much better and fuller. It is grey, not white which I think makes many women look older. I don't understand why you couldn't just let it grow out - does anyone think that everyone else can't tell you color your hair. You and get a semi permanaent color put on - it will wash out. But that way you can wait until it is at a length you can cut it to - or not.. as we get older your hair color should lighten it looks more natural -...See Morehair cuts/color while regular stylist is on maternity leave
Comments (11)Always... wonder if the new stylist got mixed up. She doesn't seem to be the brightest bulb, evidenced by telling you the payment arrangement, whatever it should be - that is not at all cool. Maybe there are some stylists who charge more than your old stylist and were asked to do her clients for the lower price. I've never heard of such a thing as charging more than someone usually charges and can't think of any rationale for it. I guess to try to keep the clients from migrating to the cheaper stylists after your regular returns, as someone mentioned. But, boy, she needs to learn to keep her mouth clamped shut! Artemis, that is so strange. You'd think she would have contacted all her clients to let them know where she is. It takes a long time to build a good clientele. I wonder if she decided to get out of the business?...See MoreRediscovering products at bottom of drawer & my hair feels great
Comments (14)No discoveries for me yet. An electronic acquaintance, who is enthusiastic about laundry products, freely admits to having stashes of them squirreled away everywhere. The upside was that she was able to supply friends and family when things got scarce. While she was hospitalized for COVID-19 (it does look like she'll recover, btw), her husband discovered her stashes. One of them included something like 3 cases of hand sanitizer refills. She was shocked but happy that he was filling bottles for everyone they know....See Moreeld6161
