How much do y'all spend on hair? By that I mean going to a place to get a cut or whatever you need to do e.g. colour etc.
I spend about $200 to get foils, cut, style etc. about every 8 weeks.
I hate spending that much, but It's my one extravagant item. I don't drink, smoke, or really buy much of anything usually.
Makes me feel all spesh in spite of the financial guilt
If it makes you feel good then I guess it's worth it. I used to spend more on it but over time I just don't think I feel that great about haircuts that I could justify the spend anymore.
$165 every 6 weeks for a cut, colour and blow wave. I'm happy to splurge a little on my hair, I wear it every day so it might as well look good.
~$120 for a style cut and blow dry. Supposed to do it every 6-8 weeks but Iโm not rich so I grow it out until I look like a crazy bog witch (3-4 months) and then go. I was cutting it myself when it was very long, but I do a long bob now and lack the skills to DIY on my hair type.
I leave it till I look like a crazy witch too. People are appalled lol.
