hair bored
Okay, I had to start a whole new thread for this! Please let me know if you think I'm overreacting! I called CURVE to see about an appointment for color, which they do have available when I'll be in NY. Anyways, I told the lady on the phone that I want highlights, and possibly my based lifted, but I wanted to discuss that with the stylist. No problem there. She told me I could expect the color to start at $300 and go up to about $400-$450 depending on what I have done. I was expecting that, so no surpirse there either. Then she had the nerve to tell me that there would be an additional $150 or more charge for my styling! WTF? I was like, what do you mean? She said, well, if you get shingling, a twist out, coil out, spiral set, or anything like that, it will be extra. I told that I didn't want my hair shingled or set, or anything like that. I explained to her that all I usually do is add my styling products, in my case a little mousse or gel, shake my hair, and let it air dry. She was like, I don't think they'll let you walk out with color only, and no style. I told her I don't mind them finishing my hair, I obviously don't expect to walk out with sopping wet, freshly colored hair. I really wasn't trying to be difficult, but I didn't think I needed an actual styling service. I asked her if they could just add some curly pudding and allow my hair to air dry. She was like sure, that still falls under finger styling, and it will be at least an extra $150, but you can discuss that with Titi or Miko...
Am I wrong to be mad? I want to go to their salon, but d*mn! Why do they feel a need to heap on all their services! I've never heard anyone here mention that they do this. They can run their salon any way they choose, but I won't be going if they insist on charging for something that should go with a service. I mean what's next, a shampoo charge, a conditioner charge, and electricity charge and a water charge??? Geez...

when you see it. Then they have the nerve to add tax on top of it.
It was originally $65 but she added some "extras"....which I thought were free........
And you know, it's not just about the money, b/c I could afford to spend $500 on my hair, but I guess the real question is, do I want to? Answer: Hell to the naw! 
I would much rather go someplace that specializes in color and spend $200-$300. I think I'm gonna call the Curly Girl salon like enchantment suggested. 
I'll be going to Devachan for sure!
