Copenhagen Cut

I have been putting off cutting my tresses (hair) for two reasons, one; i do not have a hairdresser in Copenhagen just yet and two: its so damn expensive. 

But i put the inevitable off for so long i could do it no longer, so i chatted to a few people, went on the net, got a few price quotations from walk ins.

Its not like Copenhagen isn't modern or has everything you might need, its just that when it comes to hair, everyone seems to have natural, uncut, regular long hair, no dye or colour enhancements so it makes one a little nervous if you have never had your hair done here before.How well do they know their stuff?

After much deliberation, three bookings and two cancellations later, i booked my self in at Street Cut where a young Icelandic guy with a wealth of experience began chopping away. What i wanted was not complicated but you never know how they might interpret your request especially since English wasn't his first language; so i watched him with eagle eyes.

For colour and a cut, quotes were starting at  1100DK to 1800DK and most of the time that was just for roots and not a full head of colour...thanks god i'm not blonde because i don't even what to know what it would cost for highlights.

So i ended up paying 1100DK which is equivalent to R1700 (ridiculous and painful when you convert) but the service was great, the salon was modern, and the end result satisfactory.
