Hairdresser Woes (Time and Price)

Ladies,
Is it just me and my hairdresser or do all hairdressers take forever to see a client and then all day to finish them up.

I wish that I could find a hairdresser for which I do not have to sit 30 minutes to an hour (yes, an hour) before she can even *start* on me. Come on, really. I feel like, they should be able to give a better appointment time...something closer to the time that they will actually begin on you. I also try not to go on weekends but even on say, Tuesday night, it will be 3 hours plus before I'm able to leave (although she can start earlier).

I know that getting my hair blow dryed will shorten the process but my hair is much healthier (and the style lasts longer) when I go under the dryer. Still, even with going under the dryer, I don't see a single head taking 3 hours plus.


Has anyone had any success finding a hairdresser that does not overbook and that can get a client in and out in 2 hours or so? I just don't see sitting in a hair salon all night (or all day) long. What did you do if you've been successful?

Also, I'm sure that this is just me (and my cheap self) but I just don't see paying $35 plus just for a wrap! I mean, as far as I'm concerned, I can wrap my hair and sit under a hairdryer at home (and I do sometimes). What is up with the high, high prices? Spirals are $45. I just don't understand paying almost $50 for someone to put rollers in my head, sit me under a dryer and take them back out.

Is anyone else out there experiencing this or am I just extra cheap?
