Can anyone recommend a good (cheap) hairdresser in CHCH? I just want to get a cut/fringe but sadly can no longer afford my old hairdresser. It turns out kids are a real money drain! -------------

My hairdresser is great - she is about $50 I think for a cut. Is in Riccarton Rd but the only prob is that she is pregnant and leaving work in Sept so not much help if you want one to carry on with, not just a one off. -------------

Nah it's just a one off. Need to look less ferral for my birthday outing tomorrow. Have ended up going with Rodney Wayne in Ferrymead they are charging $60 so I guess that will do for now. I just can't get over how much a hair cut is!
I do need a new hairdresser though at some stage so if anyone has any more suggestions they would totally be appreciated. -------------

I've just been going to "Haircut Express" (i think that's what it's called), which is in Eastgate. It's between Divine Cakes & PostiePlus. I think it's approx $35 for a cut. I''ve just gotten my fringe cut the last 2 times and it's only $6. I haven't had my actual hair cut since I was 38 weeks pregnant and Rhys is now 7 months old. Slack! It's on the to-do list though.------------- http://lilypie.com" rel="nofollow">  http://lilypie.com" rel="nofollow">

Wow thats so cheap! I was actually wondering about that place? I knew they sold hair products but wasn't sure if they actually did cuts or not. Maybe I should try them. -------------

Now I'm really impressed haha. I've always been extremely vain about my hair and had the same incredibly expensive hair dresser for 5 years now. I usually pay around $220 for cut and colour. Obviously with Wallace and Gromit entering our lives I had to put a stop to that. Now I'm using box dye from the supermarket  The funny thing is it's doesn't look any bloody different. That'll teach me!-------------

I go to the cutting company on Warrington St - $15 for a haircut and free for fringe trim. OK so you don't get your hair washed, but they are all really good. No appointment necessary. ------------- http://lilypie.com">

| I have a lady who does it from her home, she is fully qualified etc... but has a wee one so this way she can stay at home. She charges $25 per 'treatment' so if you just want a cut its $25, if you want cut and colour its $50 etc... and she is awesome.... if anyone wants her contact details just PM me, oh and she lives in burwood. |

Oh my, 220 for a cut and colour?????? I paid 75 for a cut and colour (with foils and base) at my hairdresser. A perm, cut, and colour with 2/3 hair products maybe 150ish. But then I def do not live in Chch -------------

Man I've been going to the wrong places too, I last paid $140 for a cut and colour and that was with a coupon.
There is that new place in Riccarton mall which is about $65 for a cut, colour and foils I think. I havent been but I have heard its okay. |

I must have missed that one I was at Riccarton last night. I checked out Rodney Wayne but they quoted $70-$90 just fro a cut! Crazy! -------------

Another good place to go is the Polytech Training Salon it's pretty cheap and just ask for a second year student which means there full qualified at cutting and always have the tutors watching over them think they charge about $30 for cut and $30 for colour.
The cheap hair place at Riccarton is in the new bit by Hoytts but have heard a few bad things from people although it's probably more a case of who you get. ETA for spelling ------------- http://lilypie.com" rel="nofollow">  Was danni-chick Mum to James My Angel 28/07/08 |

There's one in Ensign st, Halswell that my sis has just started going to... about $45 for a cut - $100 for cut and colour (apparently that's cheap? )
Gosh and here I thought I was splashing out when I paid $25 at Just Cuts when I was pi$$ed off at DH - I usually do everything myself (learnt how to cut a fringe and do layers on youtube - desperate times call for desperate measures lol!) |

Yeah the new place is upstairs, its all new trainees or something I heard and you don't make an appointment just go in there.
Lol Emz not a bad idea doing it yourself, its so expensive. |

| Haha I've been looking for a hairdresser in CHCH too - I haven't cut my hair since I found out I was preggy! Which was only a few weeks after I shaved all my hair off! I used to pay $40 for a damn good haircut at a nice salon in Wellington... sounds like CHCH is far more expensive! |
