Very late in the afternoon I went to get my haircut. Been with the same stylist for 10+ years, no complaints, but on the same street as his shop I notice a new place just opened. I'm a few minutes early so I slow down a bit to take in the window. This wasn't a sign...this was
on the window in yellow lettering.
After three decades of owning hair salons with small retail areas selling only hair products, we had our "aha" moment. We thought we would expand our retail area and sell really cool stuff. Additionally, if we sold enough, we would be able to give our cutting edge hair care services for free.
Enjoy the benefits:
Retail purchase $40 = FREE blow dry
Retail purchase $55 = FREE haircut

Crazy idea, huh? I popped in, they sell hair care stuff plus local hand made jewelry plus some tchotchke. I wasn't terribly interested, but I kind of like the crazy anyway.
