A $15 haircut looks like a $15 haircut. A good haircut looks good wet, dry, with product, without product, straight out of bed, straight out of the shower, and six weeks after you got it.
For this, if you have curly hair? You pay big money. Period.
That is absolutely correct in my experience. It is hard, as a curly person, to find a good stylist, which is why until two months ago, I was still getting my hair cut in Kansas even though I live in Vancouver, BC. (The one in Canada. Yes, really.)
Now I’m working to train my current excellent stylist that yes, I do actually have to wash my hair every day, and not washing my hair is really not an option (allergies). But at least she cuts my hair so it looks great.
I can’t really use product (allergies) so straightening was never an option for me.

It’s also worth it.
I’ve read that the way most stylists are taught to cut curly hair is flat-out wrong—apparently, the standard method is optimized for being able to straighten the hair, rather than having curls that look good.
