Plus, my hair was long and styling included a French braid followed by some loopdy-doopty, swirly up do. That, with a full make-up session to boot, seemed like a deal at $60!
To be fair, $100 for an updo sounds like a lot, but for a metro region like Boston/NYC/Los Angeles/San Fran, things just cost more. I agree that it is ridiculous, but that's the reality. People also seem to upcharge for weddings! I once had the option of a $100 updo for a wedding in a big city, but the bride didn't care if we had our hair done professionally or styled it ourselves. So I did my own.
