Dry Cuts do cost more! Read more to learn why...

It is so important to me that you all understand the VALUE that you are getting with a dry cut with me. 

✔️ First of all, it requires more training. As stylists, we pay for this on our own. The cost of these classes is more than usual because there are not as many stylists who practice dry cutting.

✔️ Each cut is customized for YOU. I am creating a cut based on your type of hair, face shape, and desired look. You simply cannot get a tailored cut from a wet cut.

✔️ The time I spend cutting includes just me and my guest. You have my undivided attention. Trust me, this is rare; to have a stylist spending more than an hour sculpting and creating only on your canvas.

✔️ There are no hidden surprises. The certainty that comes with a dry cut is worth a lot to my clients. 

✔️ The shape will last longer. The amount of detailing that can be done provides for a much longer grow out time, hence fewer trips to the salon.  So, in the long run, most of my clients are actually saving money. 

✔️ Dry cutting shears cost more. We use specialized shears that will provide a much cleaner cut, and that do not fray hair ends. Sharpening costs can add up quickly. This way, I can assure my tools provide a very clean cut on the ends of the hair. 

✔️ Dry cutting takes longer. This means fewer appointments in my workday. I book out at least an hour of cut time, usually an hour and a half to be safe (especially for new clients). So, I need to charge for my time.  

✔️Just as other professionals charge for their expertise and special training, it is also important for artists to charge for their creativity and uniqueness. I know I offer something special, and have a very different approach, where I will make sure you will always leave 100% satisfied.

✔️ You will not need to spend as much on products or equipment for your hair. With the comprehensive work done with dry cuts, the hair will move on its own. 

My cuts should prevent you from needing to use as many products which include root lifters, mousse, sea salt sprays, gels, or texturizing sprays. Ditto for round brushes, flat irons, or curling irons, the cost of which can really add up. 

You will be amazed what your hair will do on its OWN.

✔️ You will save a lot of time in the morning. Time is money. Less time on your hair means more time for family, work, exercise, activities, and life. This is worth a lot to my clients!

To be honest, I have never loved the "charging" part of running my own business. In fact, in the beginning of my hair journey, it was my clients who were telling me to charge more because they saw I offered something unique. 

Now, over 20 years later, I know I need to charge what I am worth. For all of the reasons above and the fact that I make sure you will always get the best version of me and my work, I must charge more. 

I have had extensive education and now teach other stylists the Art of the Dry Cut, as well as why they should charge more for this technique. 

My approach is very different than most. After my clients come in and get a dry cut from me, they usually express to me that it was definitely worth the money. They do not have to come as often, and are in fact, saving money. 

I look forward to showing you why a dry cut with me is worth the extra investment.

As always, please feel free to reach out to me with any questions.
