To spend £60 per month on my hair?

[CrapeDiem]

I've never spent much on my hair, probably less than £150 per year, but impending menopause seems to be playing havoc with it. It's becoming thin, frizzy and flyaway and generally a nightmare.
I treated myself to an expensive salon cut and style for £80 before Christmas.
It was so much better for a few weeks but is now becoming unmanageable again.

AIBU to pay £80 every 6 weeks to keep it under control? That would be £700 per year. It feels crazily self-indulgent.

How much do you spend in the salon? And would you tip on top of £80?

I have short hair and have mine cut and coloured every 6 weeks for £45
my ex salon hairdresser now has a home salon
I'm disabled and live on benefits but it's self care to me!
If you can afford it then do it

I spend just under £100 every 6 weeks on colour and cut. My hairdresser has completely changed my life. I have fine unruly curly hair. It has always been very difficult to manage especially when I was menopausal and it started to fall out. I never use a hairdryer or any heated hair appliance. Since following this routine (4 years now) my hair has never been better and for the first time in my life I’m happy with it. I used to wash my hair daily but now it’s every 3 or 4 days.

I do the same, and occasionally I spend more. I'm perimeno too and it's caused havoc with my hair, without the professional help I'd never leave the house!
