Hey guys you rock for all the great recommendations.. You all rock! You so know you do.
Ok so I do charge 85 for a cut. ( In the new year its going up to 100). All my regular clients know that.
I will agree I am expensive for working out of my house, dipping peoples heads in the sink.
Some clients go to a salon for the salon experience, To be able to have multiple services at the same time. Get pampered. A real Hair Sink Shampoo( Gosh do I Miss that) Lots of people, crazy dance music. waiting, waiting , waiting for your stylist to actually pay attention to you. Explain this to this person, explain that to another person. And hope for the best.
Some go to hair stylists in the scariest locations who charge what ever price and the clients is happy. Because the are paying for the good cut. Not the Marketing tools, or the free coffee or the 5 professionals you end up getting passed to b the time you leave.
It is really impossible these days to find a good colorist and cutter. that work great together. That takes time and in a big salon the best are booked for months on end.,
In the States, or Canada, or Europe. There is no way you would get into a reputable salon ( obviously depending on how much you personally like the stylist), for under 25 Dollars. ... US.. Even great clips charges 25 dollars now.
Some people think it is expensive when broken down into pesos.
Most clients with Full head of Foils(2 to 3 tones) long long hair, Cut, Blow dry, Dry cut, and treatment for under or around 100 USD. Now do that in New York or London... try 200- 1000 USD for that. And we all know of those type of salons..... Amazing work.
You pay for what you get.
I am a very intense person, quite a character, and freak a lot of people out. But I love my clients and they love me, and really why they keep coming back.
Its not about being in someones home or salon, its about the final result that is most important.
They come in, have confidence in me, and know that if anything were to go wrong or they weren't happy they wouldn't pay.
My policy is The Client has 10 Days to get something fixed free of charge, or in the worst case possible: I will handy the client back every penny in return.
Its up to the client to Utilize that option or not. Always the Clients Discretion.
In being a stylist and dealing with tons of expats, locals , people from all of the world, different characters:.... there are people who love me and people who you mention my name and its like Nails Across a Chalk board.... As a Professional; every person you meet as a client is not always going to work with you. Or you with them. And my clients know some times there is an absolute lack of professionalism.... but it's someones house.... And that Can be a blessing and some times shoot my self in the foot the second I open my mouth. As with anyone in your work Your best Changes from Day to day.
When people come to see me its more than a Hair Cut. It's an Experience most never will forget good or bad. ( Quite the show as some clients would say)
We have all gone to Hair stylists....great hair and would never go back to the person because of a Difference of Character, or just no connection.
Please if you have any questions or comments let me know. Its what I'm here for
