I actually married a hairstylist. It turns out, a lot about programming and cutting hair are similar. She has to understand the requirements and implement it exactly right, the first time. I also learned that bartering is alive and well in that world. People would trade all kinds of things for a haircut that they didn’t have to tell their spouse how much it cost: vacation rentals, private box concert tickets, sailing charters, etc. My wife worked in a high-end salon.
- MonaroVXR 5y agoStupid question, what is a high-end salon?
- withinboredom 5y agoA place where people go to spend way too much money on hair, IMHO. A standard mens cut were over USD$40 and I don’t remember how much other style’s cost though. You could even get a massage before/after with their dedicated masseuse. Before I met my wife, I didn’t know the difference between a $7 haircut and a $40 one. I’d go for the $40 one if I ever have to pay for a haircut again. A $40 cut grows out good, so even if you don’t get a haircut for months after, you don’t look like a bum.
