I have thin, shitty, frizzy hair that I fight with on a daily basis. If I straighten, I run the risk of looking like Gollum, and if I let it go wavy, I look like a cocker spaniel.

I think some stylists like to drag out the process to make it some sort of experience. My hair usually takes 45 min-1 hour to cut and style but my favorite stylist that I've been to could do it in about 30 minutes. It was awesome.
I think the same thing happens with boobs. Everyone thinks they have the biggest boobs. Well I have a 36 G, and I just can't find any bras! Well I did the measuring and I'm shocked to find out that I'm a 36 Q!
And then there is me in the corner who has thin hair and small boobs. I can't even pretend. I feel so left out. (wilted)
I love that people think a $13 hair cut looks as good as a $100 hair cut.
No. A $13 haircut isn't the same as a $100 haircut. My hair is three inches long. Why the fuck would I spend $100 on my hair to make it 2 1/4" long? Doesn't seem necessary to me.
I would think short hair would need a better cut than longer. Make sure layers are cut right and such is not easy but cutting an inch off someone with hair down to their ass is easy.
True. That's why I go to a few stylists. They know my hair and know how to cut it how I like it

When I had short hair (not pixie short, but short for me), I always went to my good guy. When I have long hair, I can get away with going somewhere just okay and getting a trim. With short hair, if they mess up, there's nothing left to work with! So yes, it's more important, IMO, to use a good stylist for a short cut.

Speaking of tipping, in a FB group, someone recently suggested that you should tip your hairdresser 100% on top of your service as a holiday tip. With what mine charges, that is not remotely possible. Do people really tip this much?
No way is my stylist getting a $300+ tip. If that makes me a Grinch, so be it.
ETA: I see this topic has been covered extensively. Lol.
It's what Supercuts charges down here. It's $13 plus a tip.
Yes, I understand.
I was agreeing with Quesera that you were being called out specifically because you were the only one referencing $13 (ie: she's saying you have a bad 'do).
OMG she didn't say her hairdo was bad. She said the cheap cut is not the same as a pricey cut.

Yeah,I wasn't saying that skipping had a bad haircut (I have no room to talk on that subject) I was just saying a cheap haircut is not as good as an expensive one. And I was just using the $13 because skipping was the only one who starred a specific price that I noticed. I just skimmed the last few pages.

Eh, even with the purse analogy, it's not necessarily true.
case in point: my friend bought a Coach bag two years ago. The leather strap is now broken on it. Meanwhile my 4 yo Target hobo bag is going strong.
I've been to expensive salons and gotten a crappy cut. I've been to Super Cuts type places and have gotten great cuts. And vice versa.
No Hair Shaming!!
