Cost for services?

Hi,
Im brand new to all this. I cut my hair into a TWA about 2 months ago. Did it (with the help of a friend) at home. Its about 2 inches long at this point..and a bit uneven.
I called up a woman recommended on this site to find out the price for just getting it shaped and evened out a bit.
For the shape, a wash and condition she quoted me $55. She works from home, not a salon, and this seemed like a bit much for what I was asking for.

Is that price reasonable? I was thinking it would be about $30 at the most.. was that completely unrealistic?

Thanks!

YES! That is ridiculous! Wash and condition your hair at home, then go to a barber and let them shape you for $10 - $15.

DITTO!!!! Cause they're trying to get gas money out of you, not a value meal...

$55.00:(o) when a barber will do it for $12.00-$20.00 tip included:-)) I think you should talk to a couple of more people.

I agree with the other ladies. Go to a barber and use the extra money to invest in some good products you can use to wash and condition your own hair (multiple times!) at home.

really the barber is the move.

$55 Is ridiculous. $30 Seem accurate for a salon visit ($20 cut, $10 wash), less if home visit. I wonder if a barber can cut for $15 and you wash your own hair.
