SoCap question!

I guess I'll never find out about SoCap because the salon still hasn't returned my phone call. What could possibly be the problem with the delivery of the hair? Is it that difficult to get SoCap hair? I will not go to the second saon because $600 is just ridiculous for partial extensions!!!I think we have one more salon in the area that offers SoCap, I'll have to call for a consult. Is there another method of hair extensions I could do (besides GL) that would just fill in the sides. My sides are all different lengths from a bad hair cut. Thanks!

I liked SO Cap better over all.  But GL's i liked how small the tips were.  But for the price SOCap, no doubt. 

I had a whole head of hair put in for both SOcap and GL, i live in Chicagoland.

How much is the hair? Do you have to use hair from SoCap? I am sure you do because it already comes with the bonds, right? The second person who quoted me $600 just for the sides and a few in the back was just outrageous with her quote! She was definately trying to rip me off. What most people charge for a full head, she wanted to charge for partial extensions. I just have such a horrible haircut right now that I am trying to grow out!

Hi everyone! I was so upset yesterday but after talking to everyone here and my husband I feel better (thank you!) Anyways, I was decided to just go back to the first girl who gave me a price of less than $300. All I need is a few pieces on the sides to even out my hair until it grows 3", that's al I need. Once it evens out I think I will consider wefts for more length. I just don't think anyone here does wefts and I don't know who to ask. I think I will consider a traveling stylist. Would I have to pay for their traveling expenses? I am sure I woud but I thought I would ask? Thanks again, and I will llet you know how it goes! I just hope they don't cancel my appointment again once I make it. I guess I woulld feel better about the whole situation if the salon was upfront from the beginning instead of making up lies. I can put two and two together and figure it that they didn't have the hair the first time they cancelled my appointment. It would have been better if they just told me that instead of saying "the stylist had a family emergency".

Hey Allyssa. Read this we talked about traveling stylists. http://talk.hairboutique.com//forum_posts.asp?TID=52224&KW=SKIN+WEFTS&PN=2

for less than $1500 you can fly in a stylst and have your hair done in your own home.

I never knew about Craigslist! I just checked and no luck. I live in Syracuse New York (5 hours from NYC) upstate and there is not much of a demand or selection when it come to extensions. Obviously...the stylists can't even cut hair here!There are only three salons that offer socap and I went in for a consultation at two but I know that all three charge $1500 for a full head of long extensions. One salon quoted me $300 to blend the length on the sides of my head and the other $600 for the sides and some of the back. I just have chunks of hair missing from a horrible haircut. I want it blended to the same length that it is but I donlt want it so choppy that's why I decided on this type of extensions. I am not looking for lenght because eventually my hair will grow. It was down to the middle of my back before my nightmare began! I know that a few salons offer GL but I am not sure if I shoud go in for a consultation? I haved not paid for any hair yet and I am not sure what the stylists are charging but I can't imagine the hair costing that much. I don't need that much! Thanks again...Allyssa

well..no go! They callled me to reschedule my appointment again telling me that they had a hard time with the delivery of the hair. The first time they lied and said the stylist had a family emergency. I decided to wait or go else where. I wish they would have told me the truth the first time...I hate it when people lie. Now I question the integrity of the salon. I went to a different salon for a consultation today and it was more expensive. They want $600 for partial so cap (on the sides and some in the back) and $1500 for a full head. What do you guys think of these prices?

Thanks everyone for your response! The stylist cancelled my appointment due to a family emergency so I rescheduled for Saturday. I am starting out slow and just getting the extensions on the sides of my hair to even it out and make it look longer. It is really choppy from a bad hair cut. I will keep everyone posted!
