Woaaaah this lady is in rockville? ! I ain't no that! Lol Lemme look her up right quick! *searches threads on reneice*
 
Her work was always overrated IMO :look: Not hating on another brown lady out here making her coins but I think she just made a name for herself as a healthy hair stylist first on forums and blogs. My hairstylists' sew ins looks just like hers and she has clientele with similar hair progress.

With that being said I think I'd laugh myself into a coma about a $100 flatiron.

Can you PM me your stylist info please.
I am going to pick my battles and find a reasonable replacement. I work out too much and my lifestyle is not conducive to paying such an amount for a style that will only last 2 weeks tops.

I still find the Black Hair Industry exploitive.
 
Every time I do DD's hair I want to tell how how much I could charge her for the work I do.

I was once charged $100 (a price I was given after the fact) for her hair when I took her for her first salon visit for her fifth birthday. Her hair was burned straight. That is what brought me to LHCF in the first place.

I'm not 100% sure I wouldn't pay that much on a regular basis if I was ensured my hair would still revert and be healthy and grow...I don't know...but I do agree that the price increase should have been more gradual. Maybe they waited too long to do one in the first place, but not the customers' fault...

I'm in Georgia :sad:
 
It sounds like it wasn't explained well to the OP.

I assume the junior stylist moved up (promoted) and had a bump in price to go with it. Perhaps that happens after being a junior stylist for a year? Different levels based on their time at the salon? That wouldn't bother me, I see that happen at other salons when stylists move to senior, master level etc. Sucks for my wallet tho.

That would be insane for a yearly (annual) increase. I think we would know by now if she increased her prices that much every year.

ETA: For the other poster, I would be upset if I wasn't told about the change until it was time to pay. They should tell people that way earlier when the price change takes effect or when they confirm your appt. I might throw a fit (not loudly lol) or have a chat with the owner about that. Take her aside for a minute and tell her how I feel. Let her know that it mars my experience and my potential future visits if I'm a regular.
 
In just signed up on their list via website. And then I called and signed up lol. I hope they have spots soon. I just want some mini twists

It's kind of funny how that with so many people being natural the prices of flat ironing services have gotten outrageous. I remember in high school I would get my hair flat ironed for $45 and that was it. I can see a relaxer or something being $100 cause it's permanent. But a flat iron on natural hair that's going to get sweated out, may swell up on a humid day as soon as you leave the salon, and just doesn't last long I don't see it.

Its been a while since I've been in college, but I remember being able to get a wash, deep condition, and press for a smooth $15. This was 2003. I don't wear my hair straight now and wouldn't with these prices. Mercy!
 
I visited a salon in Bed Sty about 2 years ago and was told that a trim was $100.
I asked why and was told they would wash and blow out my hair but I could leave with wet hair.

I didn't ask about a blowout and flat iron at the time but did get a blow out recently at the same salon, with a junior stylist, for $65. The trim was an additional $75.

My flat iron only last about 4 days unless I'm using Keratin treatments in which case it can last much longer, even through a workout.

Flat ironing relaxed hair is much easier than doing natural hair. It should cost more. Plenty of relaxed styles only last a few days. The cost isn't built on length of time otherwise braids/weave would cost more.

Business models change. Especially with the cost of everything going up. Found an old cell phone bill where I used to pay $49.99 for the top plan on AT&T. Today's price is what a car payment used to be.

At end of the day there are plenty on here who have hundreds of dollars of products they will never use. I just don't understand the constant complaints on here over stylists but to see this especially when R shop has a long time standard of improving clients hair. The money you're not spending on products should cover the stylist. Or just go once a month. There is a waiting list full of people wanting to get in.

Not complaining and have no idea who this Reniece lady is nor am I interested in going to her or finding out who she is. I was just stating my experiences, yes there are relaxed styles that only last days but I was never one of those people who went to salons in between retouches anyway. And yeah relaxed hair is easier to straighten when compared to natural hair but I still think $100 is a bit much.
 
I remember the first time I went into a salon for a natural hairstyle. I was quoted 65 dollars on the phone for double strand twists and then charged 110 after styling due to the thickness. I never went to another salon after unless it was braids.


I want faux locs but they are 300 and up. Folks charging 200 and up for crochet braids. It's something else.
 
My last flat iron including tip was around $80. I loved it and will go back.... In like 6 months lol. I'll pay but the frequency won't be very often.
 
$65 blow out and flat iron + $75 additional for a trim by a junior stylist.
A trim by a senior stylist is $100 - $125. Any cutting is charged the same price, whether a trim or an entire new cut.

I'm hoping I read that wrong. Do you mean the trim made it $75 total? Or that they were charging $75 for a trim only. :eek:

Wouldn't pay that much for a flat iron job. It's too basic, I'll pay $100+ for a nice unique style though. I can flat iron myself but if I don't feel like it I would go to a salon that charges $65 or less

Girl was that the beauty school or a Dominican salon? I can't imagine a regular beauty shop being that cheap in the last 2-3 decades lol.
