Hundred Dollar Haircut!!!

MoreCowbell · 05-08-2006, 10:54 AM

So I had a wedding to go to on Saturday night. I haven't had a haircut in several weeks and it's time to change my appearance a little bit(my wedding is in 5 months). So my mother-in-law(future) makes me an appointment at the salon she goes to in Manhattan. So I get the haircut and it's "not bad". Then I go to pay...

It's $93!!!!
Plus tip, so it wound up, with tip, to be $113.

THATS INSANE!!! INSANE!!! AND MY MOTHER-IN-LAW HAS SUCH A WARPED SENSE OF REALITY THAT SHE THOUGHT THIS WAS "FINE". SHE'S LIKE "THAT'S WHAT A GOOD HAIRCUT COSTS".

She's out of her mind!!!

And on top of that, during the haircut, somebody who works at the salon comes up and asks if I want a cold drink...I say "Sure, I’ll have a diet coke". So they bring me a can of diet coke...

AND THEN HAVE AUDACTIY TO CHARGE ME $1.50 FOR IT PLUS TIP!!! HOW COULD MY MOTHER IN LAW POSSIBLY THINK THIS IS OK?

SHOULD SHE BE COMMITTITED OR AM I THE ONE WHO IS "CRAZY"???

Sorry to vent!!!

You should have made her pay for it.

MoreCowbell · 05-08-2006, 10:58 AM

I'm at the point with her that all she has to do is say "Black" and before the words come out of her unrealistic, clueless, snobby mouth...

...I'm already saying "white"

cdheaven · 05-08-2006, 11:02 AM

how long did it take? i have paid a total of zero dollars for allllll of my haircuts combined over the last 6 years. so i cant really judge if its a lot or not, but i know every girl i know goes to the salon and spends like 200-300-500 bucks or more. soo i guesssss, its not too bad.

MoreCowbell · 05-08-2006, 11:14 AM

That's a good question Bad-Bod...

She just happened to be around when I mentioed I needed to haircut. I usually go to a barber $11, plus tip and it comes out just as well.

Now..i'm not a cheap person...far from it(I pat $350 for a parking *******, but $100 for a hiarcut is plain crazy...

BellasBmw · 05-08-2006, 11:34 AM

For a man's haircut, thats DEF wayyyy too much. I spend $130 on my hair without tip. Whenever i see guys in the salon i keep thking what a damn waste..

Explorer3253 · 05-08-2006, 11:46 AM

wow..i pay 14 for mine! lol...and its at a unisex place!

Josh49 · 05-08-2006, 11:48 AM

Gave up on going to barber's. They're too expensive now, and its inconvenient, and I hate waiting.. I cut my own hair... Have my gf fix up the back, around the ears. $20 x 15 haircuts/year = $300/year on haircuts. In 10 years that $3000, not including inflation.. Thats a set of BBS wheels I want!! :rocks:

Yeah I would have had her (mother in law) pay for it.. That's absurd I bet you could get a $20 haircut it would look the same.. $1.50 and tip for a can of coke? I'd go buy one for $.65 at the corner store and give it to them..

Man $113... You get the happy ending at least for that price??

That's too much either way...what the hell justifies $130 for a haircut? Layering?

Ha ha ha...I pay $0.00 for my haircuts! I've got a norelco beard and moustache shaver and I use that on my head, at setting 7 all around.

Believe it or not it gives a perfect ceasar hairstyle in less than 2 minutes. And I usually cut my own hair right before I shower, so I'm not even itchy afterward.

I think 100 bucks for a haircut should include full release
