| San Antonio Texas hair extensions From: kelly 3/1/2006 Hi Lance, I just moved here from San Antonio, Texas and am looking at having extension put in my hair mainly to add body and maybe a little legth. I had extension put in regularly for about 2 years and have had them out for about 6 months. Really missing the longer hair and body so thinking about having them put back in. Just wondering what you typically charge and what type you use, etc. I would probably have plan on doing this regulary to maintain them so just looking for someone good but not too expensive. Look forward to hearing from you. Thanks!! Kelly Comment on this posting. |

| hair highlights in the past From: MaryLa 2/22/2006 Hi Lance, I have had hair highlights in the past (red, brown, and blond) but went back to my natural black hair two years ago. I'd like to go light again. Right now, it is BLACK (last time was in October 2005 to even out the color as my ends had gotten too light). I would like to go to a light brown/blond like Kelly Clarkson on her "Thankful" album cover. Don't know if that's possible or not. It's almost streaked. I have long hair (past my waist). I'd really also like a permanent body wave for my hair but don't think I should do both at the same time or maybe not both at all. I'd really like the hair color done though because I can always curl it using rollers. Do you have an openings this weekend? Preferably Saturday. Thanks! MaryLa Comment on this posting. |

I did not build up much of a clientelle because i spent the last year working in the salon at the Marriott hotel and in can't tell you how much invaluble experince i got their working with an international client base,as i was the only stylist i was responsible for all styles,cuts and color for men and women,my starting price was $65.00 for a womens haircut.
