    Question How Much Would You Expect To Pay?- Hairdresser?

    Just wondering, how much would you expect to pay for a cut, colour and a handful of foils?
    TIA

    I did pay $180 for a restyle and from dark brown to platinum, I think the up keep was about $100ish mark.

    Long to short angled bob, coloured after cut.

    Foils are about $5 per foil (depending on where you are). Full colour is around $60. Cut and blow wave is about $40...

    It does all depend on where you are, whos doing it (you can ask for it cheaper if its an apprentice), what your hair is like.. so on so forth.

    For MY hair.. I would be willing to pay about $150 for that as my hair is quite long.

    ok...thanks, just checking.
    i went this morning and had a cut, base colour and a few foils (maybe about 6?) and bought conditioner to bring home. it cost me $199. i was just wondering if i was getting ripped.
    dh would flip out if i told him it was that much. i'm going to tell him it was $120. he was still flip out over that amount.

    I normally pay around 130-150 for a cut and half head of foils in Melb
    Out of the city (in Vic at least) it can be cheaper though. Used to cost me $80 in Ballarat

    And the funniest thing about it, dh just got home and said to me 'it will fade out a bit, won't it?' so, in other words 'it's too dark and I don't like it'. Rofl.

    I think it's generally better not to discuss the price!

    DH doesn't mind though because he knows I went without for a long time, and I space out the cuts and only get the colour redone (foils) every 3 months. I stopped getting my brows waxed regularly to offset the cost of the colour and now I just get them done periodically for a tidy up and tweeze the rest of the time.

    Bra line - that's a great description of my length!

    Mine is $130 for cut and foils over the top of my head, easily about 25 foils.

    Living semi rural it is really cheap. I paid $70 last time. I vowed never to go back to Melbourne as last timeci got charges nearc$200 and it was an apprentice!

    Although in saying that I have not had a cut in 13 months. ( I have really curly hair so it barely even looks any longer!) and I have ditched the foil and dye it myself at home.

    Where I work there is a barber - father and son. The father does the guys but the son does the ladies. he does cut/colour. Anyway for color , half a head of foils he charges $60 bucks. I think is pretty cheap. For a haircut I think about $20. Whenever I need a fringe cut, just $5 bucks. He also is easy on the 'eye'... haha
