Why isn't everything set up like a common salon 4-page web site prices menus?

People come to Longhairs because they want Louise Marie Longhairs to do their hair. In long hair everything is different, some things take more time than others.

With regular salons anything within 3 inches long hair is about the same but for angles.. colouring is the same amount on all, but varied dibs and dabs here n there...not much expertise except with who and when, where maybe why.. (and shove them under the dryer with foils)Long hair to most salons is alot of head-scratching, more water more detangling(not knowing how to wash it) and yup... more blowdrying to cover up the scare-cut or the boring blunt chop.... salons hate the long hair stuff, it's too much work...(..leave it to us;-) So they charge more for it.

There's much more to long hair than whipping out the razors and thinning shears, there's doing it right, and that Louise Marie Longhairs does well...with precision, sculpting, and by not taking the easy way out, it's worth the time. Tired of guessing if IF stylists know what they're doing...IF. they even care? They wouldn't use razors. Razors crack the hair cause split ends frizzies dry-outs tangles nevermind it looks cheap.

People looking for us are not just running their finger down the row in the phone book for who is open on Sundays...or googled salons in the area...looking for the best prices (why not they're all the same with long hair...they all hate the stuff) instead...our clientele wants the trusted long hair specialist.

We did not design this caring environment with transient wanton salon-hoppers in mind, they who want the same thing that they can get anywhere, then just shop for the best price as they can get anywhere 'out there' scouting the pending 5$ up or down from their last 'good-enough' hair cut. But when they've reached the end of the line some will realize there is more...then we'll take them in and treat them right!(never to leave again!)

We understand everyone values different things, but the salons 'out there' and their clienteles (that actually belong to the 'salon circuit') well ...they seem to play hairdressers against each other for prices...stars they know...etc and in the end their clientele get bored easily, and often have less dedication than there is to be had in a clientele that someone one spends personal time on and cares about.

'Out there' salons will never care to have costly websites like ours, spend the hours she works, and even imagine the high-quality products create the recipes, constantly adapt, polish and better her recipes, plus create a caring environment she creates for her loyal and dedicated clientele. ALL that's for our very special folk who care to know the difference. Our clients are proud to say they were glad to find out that we're not prissy, we don't sit around measuring how looong our hair is,
nor are we supremists. We are realistic honest and down-to-earth cool at making our people look hot.

Do you?

We are all people who pay bills, rents, gas, mortages have kids, even Ms Louise Marie is a student advancing her expertise at naturopathics school, but if you want a great place and experienced stylist that cares... no matter how often you can afford to have the best...but you just care that you do... our clients simply want the best and never settle for less...and better yet, know when they have found it.. We all have to figure out our own math. YES we are a 'nice' place but we also have lots of 'nice' students as clients too, and we always have. We always give them extra bonuses with their visits and purchases.

Once again...some people drink some don't... some order in, some cook healthy at home... some drive some don't... and some people budget themselves to have what they want. Some people like to be hair-happy. If great long-lasting hair is not your priority save 'a case of beers money' and get a topcuts magic cut 'just-a' cut, try your luck there if the price is right...but think again. When you want the best and some work put into your hair, some thought... some heart...you fill out the appointment form and come on in. We're not THAT pricey, top notch but not absolute top notch prices.

If it's a haggle on a whim, there are places for that. white walls, rotating operators/stylists, no nice view, 10 minutes, spray bottle wet-downs, and 3-stroke cuts, we are 30 years beyond what most people cried over last time before they came here. If you want a bargoon and want us to fit into a typical strip-mall budget, please don't blame us for being better.

If you value your hair to be done right, LMLonghairs takes the time you need, and has all the patience and attention to detail that you deserve. We realize it's been a long journey to get here.

If you must talk money even before we see you for the first time... you can always tell us your budget and we could perhaps
tell you if it''s realistic, but we don't and can't haggle. We do take
Visa Mastercard Amex, Interac and cash.
