Random Poll: Hair
How often do you get your hair done?
What do you pay?
What does your hair look like now?
I have very long and curly hair, past the middle of my back, No bangs but some layers. I sometimes straighten it but only get it cut about 1 or 2 times a year 
. I am getting it cut and colored tomorrow and will probably spend about 110 plus tip. When I get it highlighted it is more like 150 plus tip.
I really can not decide if I should chop it off since it has been long for such a long time or if I would regret it. I want a change but I'm not sure what to do. It takes forever to style. So how do you like your hair? Short and easy and fast to style or long so you can put it back?

I get my hair cut and colored every 3 months
I spend about $200
It is a little above shoulder length, long side swept bangs. It has to be long enough to put the very back in a pony (for the gym - I go nuts otherwise). Longish layers, but I usually just straighten my hair every day. I am in the proces of growing out my highlights so right now I get a semi-permanent color when I go in, which I LOVE. I get to try lots of new shades.
Every six weeks!
I pay just under $40 for hair and eyebrows...a steal!! I was paying over $60 about five months ago. I had to break-up with my other stylist
Right now it's short (above the shoulders) with some layers, though I'm growing it out.
I get my hair cut 2-3 times a year.
I pay $40 + $10 tip.
I have long straight hair with a few layers.
I like my hair long. I cut my hair to my shoulders when ds was 4 months old and I hated it. I grew it back out and that's how I like it. I don't do much with it--- just blow dry it and it's good to go.
Not very - every few months so maybe 3-4 times per year
$20 for trim
long and straight
I haven't colored my hair in years and even did it myself then. I'm cheap.

Your hair is really pretty
Im cursed with ultra thick hair that would never be that calm and silky.
YOUR hair sounds really pretty and what I've always wanted: curly and long! I swear! I use to get piggy-back spiral perms every Winter and LOVED them!
Something changed once I got pregnant though and it was more of a frizzy mess. haha

I get it cut and colored every 3 months.
It's $145, without tip.
I got it cut sort of like Katie Holmes last time I went it. And it's light brown with blondish highlights.
I need to get mine done more - I usually go every 4-6 months.
Lately, I've been paying $20. Next time, I will pay more.
My hair looks like this:
It makes me sad.

I get my hair cut every 2 months. I get it colored 4x a year.
For cut, color and highlights it's $200. For just a cut, it's $75.
My hair is a couple of inches below my shoulders, layered with long bangs. It's brown with caramel highlights.
How often do you get your hair done? every 6-8 weeks. my hair grows like crazy!
What do you pay? $30 for wash/cut/style. $65 if I get it colored.
What does your hair look like now? I have an inverted bob with side sweep bangs. I got my hair cut like this 2 years ago and have loved it since! My hair is naturally curly, but I straighten it everyday.
OMG too funny! I get mine done so rarely that I use it to justify spending more.
How often do you get your hair done? About twice a year!
What do you pay? $15 at the Aveda school, and I've been happy every time. The student cuts it and a teacher goes over it at the end.
What does your hair look like now? Angled bob.
I get my hair cut every 3 months for about $50 each time. I get it professionally coloured twice a year for about $100. The rest of the time, I do home colour.
I have really, really thick hair so I keep it shoulder length. It's a pain to style because I refuse to let it air-dry, so I always blow-dry it and straighten it. It takes me at least 1/2 an hour to do my hair. Right now, it's dark brown, shoulder-length angled bob, with bangs (the across the forehead kind, which is new to me, I used to have side-swept bangs but got bored with that)
Self maintenance, pampering and care are things that I do not skimp on because I feel like a better person, mom and wife when I care for myself (not lecturing - just what *I* have realized for myself).
I get my hair down every 4-6 weeks
I pay between 100-150 (depending if I need a full color + highlights or just a few highlights to help cover gray)
I have medium/short hair. I love how easy my hair is to style each morning and I think it looks good on me.
How often do you get your hair done? 4X a year
What do you pay? 80 for cut, I don't color (yet)
What does your hair look like now? see PIP
I get my hair cut every 2-3 months, sometimes I get my highlights then but most of the time it's every other appointment. It depends on the time of year (I can go longer in the summer) and whether I have any big events coming up.
Wash/haircut/style: $30-$50 With highlights/color: $110-120. Both include tip. I had to guesstimate, I buy my product from her as well so that is usually on the bill.
How does it look? Right now, it looks sad, lol. I had an appointment last month but we had nothing going on until this month. Seemed like a waste to get dolled up for nothing
. So I gave my slot to DD#1 for a cut and my stylist just gave me a trim to get me by. I see her next week for the full service:)
I like my hair. I had short hair (above my ears) for ten years and I totally regret it. It made me look older and I could never do anything with it. When my sister got married 3 years ago I decided to grow it out to have an updo for her wedding (I was MOH). Now I keep it around shoulder length. I can put it in a ponytail but I can also curl it, keep it wavy, dress it up a bit, etc. Occasionally I'll let it get a little long and then have an inch or so cut off. It's not much, but I definitely feel it! I also let my stylist do whatever she likes with my cut and color, I trust her and I like a little change now and then:) I have gotten nothing but compliments so she must be doing something right!

How often do you get your hair done? I don't color or style my (curly) hair. I get it cut about every 6 months or more.
What do you pay? $50 + tip
What does your hair look like now? A rat's nest. LOL...
How often do you get your hair done? Every 3 months or so.
What do you pay? $120ish for cut and color. I've started doing all-over color instead of highlights because it's cheaper, but man, I miss my highlights.
What does your hair look like now? Shoulder length, med-to-darkish brown (kind of reddish from being lightened), layered with longish, side-swept bangs.
I normally get it cut and highlighted 3-4 times/year. I have naturally dirty blonde hair, so my highlights don't grow out looking painfully obvious. I haven't gotten highlights since August because I found out I was pregnant in November, a week before my appt! I'm waiting until 3rd tri.
I pay about $200.
My hair is very fine but I have a lot of it, below my chin, dirty blonde with highlights, and can barely be pulled back in a ponytail. I had long hair when I had DD, and finally got a "mom cut", although I think it's cute and not "momish." :-)
