Today I got a perm from a place in a mall. Their sign said 'perms $65 and up.' I asked how much a perm for me would cost, and was told probably $65 as my hair isn't too long, about mid collar length.
The stylist gives me the perm, then asks if I want any cut off. I tell her yes, and tell her how much to take off.
Afterwards I go up to the counter to pay, and am shocked when I'm told the charge is $95!!! I ask why, if the sign says perms are $65, I'm being charged $95, and am told 'the perm was $65, the haircut was $30.
I've gotten perms about twice a year for the past 15 or so years, and every time they cut some off, and never ever have I been charged extra for a hair cut. Have a just been fortunate all these years?
My money's kinda tight right now, and I was happy to give myself a treat via the perm. But I thought I'd only be paying $65 + $15 for tip, but instead I paid the $95 and gave a $10 tip. I was kinda upset when I left.
What's been your experience? Thanks
