    I found a woman who is just starting out, she wants to build a clientele, but also be busy all day every day, so she charges 10.00 for a haircut and 40.00 for a dye. And she does an amazing job! I have recommended her to about 20 people. It's almost been a year now since she started her business and she is busy every single day.

    Personally, I think at a certain age, we should just step away from the box dye:)

    And that age would be (in your opinion)?

    Lots of people would think I am too old for a nose ring, but I disagree :) I got it in my mid 20s and will have it there til the day I die. I will be a colorful old wrinkly lady with a shiny nose stud....and reeeeealllly dark hair :)

    I started getting gray hair at 22 years old ~ just like my Mama.

    I have never had my hair professionally done. I am too cheap and because i dye my hair at home it will cost more for them to color correct it first before adding colour. I would like to get it cut some time but i cut my own hair too. When it is long it is easy.

    i agree ! i cut my own hair too and befor that my mom would for me as a kid, the few times i have gotten hairdressers (different ones) to cut it they have butchered the hell out of my nice hair and i refuse to go back

    I go to the salon for my highlights. I had a friend who BEGGED me to help her use a highlighting kit in her hair....yeah she definately ended up with cheetah-spots. It was baaaad. If I'm that terrible when I can see what I'm doing, there's no way I'm going to risk coloring my own hair!

    Haha, I did that for my best friend once, but she was going for a striped look...I was skeptical in doing it for her, but it actually turned out really cool, and it was what she wanted, so even better. :) All we used was bleach and some scotch tape. :tongue:

    What's with that magical tube of conditioner that comes in the box dye? Do they sell that stuff by the bottle?

    Certain brands sell them...at least they used to...I haven't looked lately.
