    I go to the Regis salon in the mall, where they give employee discounts if you work there. I don't work at the mall anymore...but I say I do and get a 20% discount. The coloring stuff...if I have money to blow I'll have it done professionally, but most of the time I'll just get some stuff in a box.

    I get highlights and lowlights. plus a cut every 6-8 weeks and it cost $160. If I buy products, it cost more. I have used the same stylist since 1997. She is the best!!

    i don't dye my hair, i like it the way god made it. i'm also fine getting my trims at fantastic sams or costcutters, they do a fine job.

    My mother's ex-boyfriend was a hairdresser and he used to do the Japanese hair-straightening thing on me for free every six months... and it would've cost $600 a pop!

    I was devastated when they broke up.

    Anyway, that's the most expensive procedure I've ever had done but I didn't pay for it.

    Yeah, Maddy, post it. I'm interested in hearing about it, because although I was happy with mine for the most part, I had issues as well.

    I got my hair trimmed and re-layered last night at Super Cuts for 20 bucks =] And I actually think I found a stylist that I freaking like! She wants to help me color my hair after nicky is born. I dont pay alot of money for anything but hair I never see a problem forking out a bit for. Esp. Since I dont get it done often.

    And besides that it probably would work for my hair. Ive had my hair professionally dyed an done everything in guidelines to keep the color and even once a perm and it didnt take my hair rejcted it. Thats how I ended up with gold hair to begin with.

    Ugh, I pay $175 for partial highlights and $90 for cut and blowout, that does not include tip unfortunately. But my colorist and hairstylist are the best and I don't trust my hair with anyone else.

    I once went to the Christopher Stanley salon in lower Manhattan and I paid $550, NOT INCLUDING TIP!!! And when I came out of the salon my husband asked if I decided just to get a cut and not color. Never again going back there! But that's NY for you.

    I used to have a guy in Queens that did amazing color and cuts for $110 but he moved to NJ Sad

    jmast Queens is a great place to go for things like this. THere are a lot of really talented people and it's waaaaay cheaper than Manhattan. I go to a place in Queens as well, and they do a better job than any other place in Manhattan

    $25 for a cut and highlights...$10 just for the cut. She is cheap and does an AWESOME job. I need to go again - I've been bad and haven't made 'me' time for a haircut in over a year!

    I pay a fortune to go to the girl who has been cutting my hair for 20 years.. but since she is in Newport Beach Ca and I am in Az now..

    so I broke down and to save money..new home business budget.. I went to a hair styling institute sponsered by Aveeda nearby. Now it is not for the faint of heart and it took a small eternity, but they charged me $75.00 total including tip for a cut, high and low light color weave and a style. And it came out super cute. I asked other people around me when I was waiting for my "student" and everyone said they came often and loved it.

    So if you are on a budget, you are brave and have some time to kill.. bring a book.. it is a fun alternative.

    I just went today to get my completely lifeless hair a pick up. This little place I always see on the way home. It cost me $35 for the cut and i left her a $10 tip..she was so grateful she gave me her card with $30 off a facial the next time I come in, and $20 off a color.

    I love it, I've been looking at myself in the mirror all day, flipping my hair. Better then the $75 haircut I got before, and the girl was so nice.

    The most I ever spent was $300 dollars on a cut, highlights, and then dying the whole thing pink Smiling a looong time ago.

    75 for color, twice a year. 35 for cut. I'm one of her first customers, I've been seeing her for years, so she really gives me a good deal!

    My nat. color is actually real pretty..but every fall I go darker, and I've had the same 'stylist' for 3 or 4 years now and it's at a little christian salon and I can walk out of there only paying $80.00 and that includes the $20.00 tip. When I get my haircut, I'm not all particular~usually only about $25.00 for a plain ole cut.

    oh yeah....and by the time the fall comes around again, my nat. color usually has already come back through because of the darker fading..~ I never put that permanant color on, It only took me about 2 or 3 times in my life to finally learn that 'that's not a good idea* Laughing out loud

    that's $3,840 on your hair a year (before shampoo etc) or $10.52 a day. i think i might consider shaving my head at that price.

    About $50- $100 depending on what I have done. I have short hair so it doesnt take so long.
