I used to spend a lot for hair cut visits.....I mean a LOT. Color, cut and all....And then as I got older I felt as if after a day or two I didn't look or feel any more beautiful.
So, I stopped coloring and people say, 'your hair color is so beautiful!' Who knew?
And I just started getting it cut at Hair Cuttery or any of the cheap places. $25 with tip usually. I get many compliments.....more than when I paid $150-250.....
Big step for me in the cheapskate department - my hair is super long, so I only get a haircut every year or two. I wear it up almost all the time. I love the way it looks when its freshly cut and styled, but after day 2, its back up in my typical hairstyle anyway. It has been a while since my last haircut, and it was getting annoying, so last weekend I brushed it out, twisted it up above my head and had DH chop off about 6 inches. It freaked him out a little bit ("Are you sure you want me to do this? Really honey? You're sure?"), but it worked out well - I had to trim one little bit that was longer than the rest, but otherwise it looks fine. Yeah, I'm a pretty low maintenance kinda girl, and $70 richer than I would have been!
