Same amount I pay and tip. I get my hair cut at a local salon, like
95% female clientele and primarily seniors.... been going there more
than 12 years now. I like it because I can call Thursday morning at 9
AM and get an 11 AM appointment with Lynn, she works only Thursday and
Friday. Lynn is in her early 50s, a tall stringbean, flat as a
board... if she had bosoms I'd have my hair cut a lot more often.
