Good Charlotte Haircut

[peaceloveunderstanding]

Hey, does anyone know of a good barber or place to get one's haircut? I have been looking around for a good one. My price range is $35+, I would pay a good amount for a great cut.

when I read the title of this thread I thought it was going to be about how all the kids nowadays (boys and girls alike) have the same Good Charlotte inspired haircut.

Go to Great Clips. $12 and every 10th haircut is free.

I'm glad you made this thread! I've been wondering the same thing.

Only I'm not willing to spend anywhere near $35, so how about some $15-$20 suggestions, too.

SouthPark Barber Shop. $20 for the cut, but that includes a neck shave (with hot towels) using a straight razor. They're between Taylor Richards & Conger and Manzetti's.

hehe, I had tried Great Clips when I was younger. I always got a $2 haircut for $8.

They asked where to get a good haircut? Every response is advertizing.

Which one? I find those to be hit and miss, but definitely okay if I just need a trim. I would love to find a good salon, but I'm tired of going to places and paying high prices when the person cutting my hair has the same cosmetology school certificate as the person at great clips--she's just paying to rent a booth there. People who work in an expensive salon should have a higher level of training and expertise than people who work at great clips.

Honestly a person working in a higher end salon is more experienced. Great clips hires people right out of school with no actual training. Higher end salons, and even regular salons like the one I work at require more training than just a license. You don't learn much at school, on the job training is where you learn. Our people assist for a while before ever cutting or coloring a clients hair.

yea and one can pay more to get a more experienced person. What are some of the higher end salons? I am looking for one in the uptown area (maybe I should have said that in my first post)

Modern Salon in the hearst bulding is the only actual "upscale" salon. There is also uptown retreat, borealis (south end) and honestly those are the only salons I would rate well in that area.

My vote is for Modern Salon and Spa. However, skip the facials there and go to Potion instead. Candace (the owner) rocks and has better skincare offerings at her shop than most of the spas in the city.

[peaceloveunderstanding]

heh, Im not one to get a facial, I am just looking for an exceptional cut. I will try this Modern Salon next time I need one though. Looks like what I am looking for.

[joshuacc]

Candice is not a Modern Salon owner. Arsalan and Arezo Hafezi are the owners of every location, Hearst, Phillips, Birkdale, soon to be Ballantyne, and also Mantra (on East BLVD)

Carmel Salon is awesome on Carmel Rd. in Matthews area......It has very comfortable chairs and very nice people, who give you hot tea. $25 for haircut.....and if you get waxed the owner does it for you...She's Persian....she knows what she's doing lol.......ask for Tommy he's the best at cutting!

Planet 21 at the Arboretum is pretty good. Too far out in the burbs for me to get a haircut, but they have some talented folks there if you live in that area
