My hair is currently half way down my back and salon dyed light/ashy blonde.

I love my hairdresser however I do find I have paid a lot more than expected in the past.
She is lovely but I find my colours have always been quite basic without much depth. However I don't know if I am totally unrealistic in my expectations!

How much would I expect to pay for this cut and colour?

Also, is this colour easily achievable?

Thank you 😊

I went from photo 1 to photo 2 for £120 with a woman who was trained by mark hill

It's literally knocked years off me !

I was at doctors on Monday for an appt and she asked if I had kids
I said yes - aged 31 and 26 and she looked at me , then my medical notes run me again and asked how old I was

She said I don't look 51 .

Could have kissed her 😂

@baggiesmalls

That looks lovely! Such a good price too!

I was talked into a professional colour - I normally do it myself. £200 later and it was ok, but I think my £8 box of L'Oréal was just as good. But I don't have highlights/lowlights or anything.

Yeah I was thrilled - think the fringe is knocked a few years off but the colour change was more dramatic than the pic tells

I'd been box dying for years over covid a solid brown but the grey was showing

So the ashy blonde hides the greys but warms the brown

I love it . The wolf cut knocked a few years off too . I don't have any wrinkles yet (how ? God only knows !) so I look a lot younger . It's a fllattering cut and colour and the upkeep is quite easy too - like this time (it's been 8 weeks ) but I can only afford the T section and cut at around £50 . But that'll do till next time .

The price seems quite fair to me. It's time consuming and skilled.

@strawberrycheesecakes I specifically asked her to use some darker colors than my normal hair color and some lighter colors, and we discussed whether I wanted a natural or dramatic look.

Even so it's less dramatic than I was expecting! This is it, along with the picture I showed her.

I think with balayage in particular they are keen to go fairly close to your natural color so it grows out nicely I.e. no obvious roots.
