Even places like the Hair Cuttery charge over $40 for a partial perm. I think it boils down to perceived value. Some may think $100 hair cut is better than a $10 hair cut...maybe...maybe not.
Well, i won't pick bones on the Day Spa/ Salon vs Salon image and maybe over $40 for a partial perm IS the norm today. The price is usually based on product cost / time involved.

I DO agree with your $100 hair cut statement, however. I worked for 5 years at a men's salon that was mid-priced ($27) quite respectable and happened to be two doors down from a very expensive men's salon. I LOVED IT.
I spent most of every day fixing the $75 haircuts that their men had received and hated. Once I fixed them, they were my clients from then on....I never had to critique or say a word. So, I agree. Price is not necessarily an indicator of quality
