THE NEW HIGHLIGHTS: $3 A FOIL!
The other day, I was walking around and saw a sandwich board-type thing propped up outside a sort of low-rent-looking salon. It was scrawled with chalk: ‘HIGHLIGHTS! $3 A FOIL!”
Now one of the greatest things about my job is that I get to see these really fantastic colorists (shoutouts to Alyson at Eva Scrivoand Marie at Sally Hershberger Downtown!). But I’m a procrastinator, you see. I always have roots. I do the Jolen Creme Bleachtouch-up around my hairline all of the time, which not only would completely horrify the aforementioned really fantastic colorists, but also takes away my right to call anything else "low-rent" ever again.
I had roots. I went in, got ten foils around my hairline and a fantastic free blowout, and walked out looking a million times better. For $30. (For New York readers, it’s on Sixth Avenue, but I lamely forget the name).
I think charging by the foil is brilliant! Does do have a salon that does this where you live?
