The other day I received a message from a potential new client.

She asked what my price was for color?

I replied with my current “prices” depends on what you want done.

•All over color
•Highlights
•Highlights & Lowlights
•Ombré
•Balayage
•Fashion Colors

She asked me what my price was for Balayage?

I told her it starts at $150+
She said that she asked another salon/stylist and felt that she was being over quoted for this service.

I also, let her know service pricing will vary depending on who and where you go. Due to what products they use, how long it takes to complete service, how long or thick your hair is and some other factors.

Then, I really thought about what was being asked.

I messaged her again and told her, if she wasn’t satisfied with the price estimate she receives or thought it was priced to high, then to her it was over priced regardless of the
“going” rate.

You see ‘’price’’ is what someone charges.

“Value” is what something is worth.

Sometimes a price may be higher or lower than what something is worth.

You determine if you value the service or item enough to pay the price that is being charged.

Some people are not coffee people. Paying $5+ for Starbucks Coffee isn’t something they find value in. Therefore It isn’t ‘’worth’’ the price to them.

Some people love purses & bags.
Anytime they go to the mall or store they always look at them. Some are even very expensive. But to them it is ‘worth’ the ‘price’ they pay for them.

If you find value in something, then it is worth the price.

I have tried to make it so my clients new or established, get lots of value while they are in my salon.

When asking how much a service cost, please don’t be rude and say "That’s so expensive, I can go to someone else cheaper!"
Also telling us you want. The works and only want to spend $50, is not ok! In most cases $50 doesn’t even pay for the products used on your hair.

If that’s not in your budget we totally understand & it’s ok!

I will actually work with clients budgets, so you can have amazing hair without the super high price tag. If your budget is more of a partial highlight, I can make a partial highlight look amazing!

When you tell us that we are too expensive... That’s like me going to your job and telling your boss your paying her to much money.

Rude.... Right?!?!

This is how I help support my family, pay our bills, etc...

Hairstylist/Salons are expensive careers and it takes a lot to run my business the right way! This is not a hobby!!!

A good stylist stays educated on all the new techniques. So when you ask me to do a specific technique, I can give you your hair goals.

So.....
Keep in mind, some of the same people that complain about price are the ones wearing the expensive purse. When you’re naked in front of your spouse, you’re not wearing your purse, but you do still have your hair.

Exciting news!!!! You can now order the professional products I use on you in the salon, shipped right to your house through my website!!! I’m so excited about this as I have tons of clients that are wanting things from the supply house. Here is Why I ask my clients to use professional hair products!

Think of it this way – your experienced hairdressing professional with years of experience and skill still uses products to help your hair stay looking healthy and shiny.
There is a reason why after your color or hair cutting service your curly hair feels smooth and frizz free or your dry hair feels moisturised, soft and manageable.
It’ because I have applied all the correct shampoos, conditioner, styling preps and finishing lotions for your hair type and texture to achieve your desired hair styling look.

I believe that by investing in a good quality hair care products can dramatically change how your hair looks and feels.

If you want to recreate that ‘salon look’ and keep your hair looking fantastic with that ‘salon fresh’ feeling everyday, then I have everything you need to know…
Shop bought shampoos (pharmacy stores, grocery stores etc) often cause a build-up on the scalp and hair due to containing lots of sulphates. Sulphate based products are much tougher on your scalp because they strip the hair of its natural oils.
If they are not colour safe these kinds of shampoo can strip your colour making it look dull and causing it to fade quickly.

The shampoos I use at the salon are more concentrated as they contain higher quality ingredients – therefore you use less making your shampoo last longer (around 3 months) and you get fabulous looking hair
