How does one know WHO is good?

Do they cut your hair the way you have always loved it, or do they give you the latest most up to date cut and color?

Do they do it with scissors or a razor or a tree trimmer?

Inquiring minds want to know.

I go to Josh at Salon Jaylee who moved himself from 466 close to me to up by Target, not so close. I go and pay him 47 bucks for a cut and style and go back in six weeks and do it again. Sweetie thinks I am drop dead gorgeous, but I think he is just used to loving me and has kind eyes. I look pretty much like a wrinkled 75 year old with white hair going in...and coming out.

I was a hairdresser in PA for a number of years and I always thought a good hairdresser is someone who will listen to what the client wants and then give a haircut that she can work with......be it wrong or right, in style or out.

Did you ever find Jutta? She is at Salon Bozadjian just across (katty-korner across the parking lot) from where the Village Spa & Salon was..........

I just went to Urban Hair. Julie cut, colored and blow dried my hair. I am very happy with my hair. I was pleasantly surprised.

They do good work and are comparable in price to my old place up north.

Agree. Same for me. When I add highlights to the cut and color it is $100.

last week I posted about how mush we pay for hair care, some how the admin put it into the contractors forum, Maybe it should have been here. I think 10 or of us responded. It was very interesting.

I love Toni at K-Raes in Summerfield, across from Aldi. Short hair is $12 on Thursdays, $15 all other days. Best haircut I have ever had. Go grey! Way cheaper and better for the environment...

I moved to TV in 2005 and went to at least 5 people at 5 different salons over the course of 4 years. No one could seem to cut straight, fine hair. So I would go back "home" to Washington, D.C., a couple of times a year to the woman I had been going to for years. I finally decided that even if I had to go to Orlando it beat going back to D.C. So I did a google search of the best salon in Orlando and found the Pure Aveda Salon in Mt. Dora. Okay, so it takes about an hour to get there, but it's an afternoon off campus, good places to shop and have lunch, and get an excellent haircut and color. Yes, a little more expensive, but then again, aren't we worth it!! However, since my stylist down there is going on maternity leave, I may give Erica a try.

My hair is curly and hard to deal with in humidity. Do you

Do u know if she is good with curly hair. Fourteen years and still looking.

I like the girl I go to know but their prices just jumped up big time, went from $68 for a cut color and blow-dry to $85 so not just a couple of dollars. Sorry this is not the Chicago or Orlando area I think they all really think all The Villagers are rich.... just my thoughts. I just at this stage of my life do not want to pay those prices anymore. :( and NO not giving up coloring my hair. I have some friends back home in the business and may just have them ship me the color product and go back to doing it myself and looking for a good cut. Oh to OP thanks for the info have a feeling they're pricey but may just call. :)

I NEVER paid more than $26.00 in NY for a haircut and I will be damned if I pay more than that here. After 4 years of searching for a reasonably priced (and someone who actually LISTENS to what i want) I found a great gal who cuts in her home - $15.00 - Now THATS good information!!!!!
