Women's hair cut is still 17 .
Maybe it’s just the Brownwood location?? There was also a sign on my stylist’s station that said there was going to be a price increase.

Maybe Cal's in Brownwood read about the VIP tent and are seeing what the Market will accept. To get a haircut from the correct person is Priceless.

You really did a public service by alerting others. You should be commended. Now the customers won't be Stroking Out when the price is higher and they find out when they get to Cal's. Now they know in advance and can make their decision.

All the heads to cut coming from the other side of the Pike. Do the math, a couple of bucks here & there will add up for the Brownwood Businesses. Haven't heard much about empty stores and all that kind of thing down that way lately? What's up with that? Someone is Snoozing!

Once again, because we live in the villages we get taken advantage of for women’s services. Time to find a hair cut for 28.00 inclusive of wash, cut and blow dry.
$28 sounds like a bargain to me. I paid $75 where I came from.

Considering g how much hair Ihave left I ten minutes or less is fine with me. I had my last haircut in Hilton Head and I was jumping out of my skin with the amount of time I was in the chair.

Maybe you could call them, and put an end to speculation?

It's NOT speculation. Was told by a stylist they will no longer offer just the cut but from (whenever the date is) it will be a hair-wash, then the cut and style. But wasn't told the cost as it wasn't known at the time. I think they may be shooting themselves in the foot as many women have short hair that doesn't need styling. So perhaps will be losing some of their business. There's always Cost Cutters, Fantastic Sams and others like that. BUT then you run the risk of not having the same person each time as they tend not to stay.

Default I am a stylist at cals Spanish spring

I am a stylist at Cal's in Spanish spring. I would like to inform you all that only brownwood has increased their pricing. Spanish springs, colony plaza and Sumter are not practicing in this increase.

I just called Cal's at Colony and asked about this rumored price increase. They said there is no pending price increase for basic wetting, cut, and blow dry. They did say if you went to Brownwood or Spanish Springs and got the "full" shampoo, cut, Style, blow dry then that price is $28.


So, I think this one is a bad rumor or a misunderstanding.

Default What cals were you going to

May I ask what cals where you at? I am a stylist at cals in Spanish springs and we get make our own timing in haircuts. We are all independent contractors. I schedule 30 min for wet down cut 30 min men cut and 45 min shampoo cut nd style. I like to take time with my clients making them feel special and I have never been pressured to quicken my time as my booth is my mini buisness

I was told the same thing. The barbers (mostly men) can still do dry cuts for $17.00, although rumor is they don't like to cut women's hair. While the stylists can still do a dry cut the price will be $28. I was also told that it's only the Brownwood location. Isn't that interesting? For the smart-mouth that suggested we go buy clippers @ Wal-Mart...if you have nothing positive to contribute then please don't say anything @ all. Due to some small SK's on my scalp (which I'm not willing to remove yet) I don't want someone else vigorously washing my hair. I don't need to pay for that service. Unfortunately for my stylist of 2+ years I didn't make my next appointment. She knows why. Not sure what I'm going to do.

I hope you don't consider it smart mouthed to ask what is an "SK"?
