Where are you currently going for haircuts and other services? (do list down the location and tel no if you can)
Action hair salon @ Paragon, u wouldnt want to go there anymore after u hear my complains

How would you rate your hair stylist on a scale of 10?
Sucks, wont rate at all now, just dont go back anymore will do

How much does it cost for a cut?
The guy who did my hair is the stylist director who won several awards before. His hair cut is $80+ :pissed:

How often do you go for a cut/trim/other hair services
1-2 months, but not to there anymore

Gee Jemay! I did my hair there 3 weeks ago too! The L'oreal treatment did nothin for me. The lady who cut my hair (Dawn) was quite good and did a partial fringe for me as well. I felt quite awkward in it at frist but now it's looking better. My friends say this hairstyle nicer than the previous one.

I might go back for a cut, but I'll take the O3 treatment at Jean Yip anytime!

brenda,
like kirei i also got my pre natal vitamins from kkh.
forgot the names and can't find the bottles now.
perhaps ask the pharmacist @ guardian or unity?

kkh pharmacy is open only during office hours, but they have these machines inside the lobby of the specialist clinics that sells these vitamins when you slot in coins & small bills (just like those cold drink machines).

but due to the SARS outbreak I do not recommend you going to kkh nowadays.
try guardian or unity pharmacies instead.

karmen - less than $20
elly - not sure as mine was a package deal

Erm I have no recs for Ponine, very different hair type.

I switch my hairdresser all the time. Refuse to salon condition my hair, for the past few 3 years already. Hair's thick, coarse but has its advantages- can take alot of abuse!

Last 2 hair visits- 1st was early this year: cheap rebonding promo at Kimage Funan under graduate student Erwin, $100, including power mask. Very good service, very careful almost painstaking- 1st time in my life offered a TIP. Was rejected haha, sweet boy. Good results unfortunately I didn't maintain (I often skip conditioner in my daily shampoo).

About a month back, was tired of frizzy ends, snipped off the ends- thinned it and felt fresher losing alot of volume. Pleased with haircut, about $25, another promo at Shunji in Tampines Mall. Long wait but they were very apologetic.

Hello!

This may sound silly but do you actually still remember how was this Erwin like? I just went down for a cut at the FUnan branch and was served by Erwin/Edwin (I didnt't quite catch his name as we couldn't communicate very well ).

It's queer though cos this stylist was under the professional department but yeah I do admit, he is very attentive. Doesn't rush when he is at work and this is the FIRST time somebody ever washed my hair so gently it felt so good haha!

[jemay]

erm..... i thought of trimming my hair soon.... looking at all the feedbacks, too many ideas and dont know where to go now.... but i really dont like salons with dozen of branches...... funny huh???

Can someone tell me more about the shunji salon??? Is by japanese or something???

Me trying to look for a cheap n good one now.... jus to trim a little only, ideas ladies???

[lovedust]

Erm i think i am an odd one out here! I don't spend lots on my hair esp hair cut. $35 is all im willing to pay unless i see a major difference but definately less than 50bucks. All my haircuts are $30+, only perm is 200 and coloring is 100+. I used to go to REDS Tampines for Clara. Then she went MIA for awhile after marriage so i visited Sunny at Clissor whose great with cut and coloring jobs. After clara's back in snipping action, i went back to her for haircut from less than $35. I have never done any major hair treatment before too.

hey jemay, do tell more about the haircut! i'm always interested in trying new stylists. such a fickleminded unfaithful customer i am...

for those willing to splurge, i'd suggest eugene from Ginrich at Heeren. he's seriously fantastic! v v v experienced and wellknown in fashion circles.


For Le Salon, I'd definitely recommend Sybil if you're looking for a hair technician. Anthony and Sybil make an unbeatable combination!

Not Evon, it shld be 62385122.....

HSBC is very sharp

[keiko]

oops missed out the auspicious number 8.

thanks HSBC for pointing it out and Meow for providing the correct no.

[michannat]

like lovedust, i've never thought of spending more than $50 on haircut. all my dye jobs are DIY. i do wonder what an expensive hair cut would do though. maybe in a few months time when it's time for another trim.

thanks missi and evon for the number! hope my haircut is as nice as you guys'!

any discounts at Shunji for card holders? or if I say I know the regular customers?

[keiko]

don't think they have any tie-ups with credit cards. they used to give this u get a hair treatment free after collecting x no. of stamps. Gave up halfway cos i keep forgetting to bring the card.
