T.F.
My daughter and I go to Andrea McCoy at www.Andreashair4U.com
She is located in Plano on the NW side of Custer/Parker in the Parker Suites Salons.
We've seen her for ages and love her. However, she may not be in your price range.
Daughter has long thick hair and a one step color for her is $78 with tip (Andrea has to use more product to get her hair properly colored). I have long hair, all one length and I pay about $150 with tip for a trim, low light and color. If I do a color only and leave wet, I think it is $60 or so not including tip.
We only trim the ends, no specific cut.. we both have long straight hair in 1 length.
She is worth it!!
