Lets see here
Fades short cuts- barbershops 20.00
High end salons 60 to 100 .00
Barbers from both places attended the same accredited collages and actually the barbershop barber will have more experience in half the time than a "master stylist" in a high in salon..the amount of haircuts the barber has done determines the level of stylists they are in a high price salon master stylist 20k in their career a barber will have cut that much hair in a yr. Meanwhile the highend would have took years to meet that amount...

High end salons are meant for perms blowouts colorings not just a haircut..waste your money if you want.. But unless im getting something serious done ill skip the 300.00 salon visit im not there for ambiance im there to cut my hair and go...

And to answer anyone who has graduated barber school is more then knowledgable on the proper product for your specific hair type..and any respected barber will tell you that freely..
