     Topic: *Off topic* Hairdresser help     Posted: 20 April 2010 at 4:52pm |

   Hi ladies,
 
 You all seem to have a WEALTH of knowledge is so many areas I thought I'd see if any of you could help me out with one more thing.
 
 I have 2 very big conferences next week, one that I am running, the other I'm presenting at.
 I currently look like I have been dragged through a hedge backwards - I have short hair, it was a pixie crop, now it is a pixie mop. I need a haircut before next Wednesday.
 
 My issue is I used to go to a very good (very expensive) hairdresser - we are talking over $200 for a cut
 
 I work at a non-profit organisation I can't afford to spend over $80 on a hair cut. I started going to the hairdressing academy - which is cheap (YAY) but they take 2-3hrs (as they are learning)
 
 I have no time and no money, and sadly no way I could wear a hat or a scarf.
 
 So in summation, does anyone here know of any good, cheap hairdressers in Auckland - better than "Just Cuts" or "Rodney Wayne" - I've had horrid experiences with both of those chains.
 
 Sorry for the long post - I'm just running out of time and feeling rather stressed.

   I go to Simone at Headstart Total Body in Waikumete Rd , Glen Eden - I find her really good and she is very experienced.  I think a cut is about $45.Phone: 818 5283

   I've just found a new hairdresser in Parnell. A friend from OB refered me to her and it was a 'refer a friend special' which only cost me $40 I think (I've got short hair too)
 Let me know if you want me to PM you her details.
