Hey Ladies

I can't take it anymore!!! This hair has got to go. I am looking for recommendations on where to get my hair lopped off. I want to donate it to locks of love so if they do it or will at least cut it off in a pony tail so i can do it, that would be swell. I am going for cheap... as in 20bucks or less cause I don't need anything fancy.... any input would be swell and dandy.

The Salon Professionals Academy
2309 Eggert Rd
Tonawanda, NY 14150
(716) 833-8772

The other cheap (and good option) is the Supercuts (yes, you read it right) at Delaware just before the overhead railway bridge. Ask for LaShawn. She is awesome (but works only two days a week). They charge around $12.95 a cut. The address is:
Supercuts - DELAWARE PARK
2165 DELAWARE AVE
BUFFALO, NY 14216
716 876-3917

I have tried 3 other places around town. However, I think these two are probably the cheapest, non-snobbiest and the better ones around.

I think LoL lists salons on their website that participate in that program... couldn't hurt to check, right? :::link:::

It's a bumble and bumble salon, and so it it's not super cheap, but it's like 30-40, which isn't too bad I don't think. And if you're willing to leave with it wet (i.e. they don't dry/style) it's like $5 cheaper. And, as a friend told me once "well duh- everyone knows that if you want a cool haircut you go to amanda!"

I went to the place around the corner from me... parkway hair cutting or something like that? on elmwood between forest/bird (or maybe one block down?) and it was cheap, but I didn't like it....

However, I remember when (e:lilho) used to go to beauty school, people could go there and "get their hair did " for cheap. I would email her and ask where that was, seems like a good deal.
