Across the 12 cities where we hold menus from more than one salon, Las Vegas, NV has the lowest median at $148 and New York, NY the highest at $366. These are small samples — 2 and 3 salons respectively — so treat them as a sighting shot, not a market average. The table above has the rest.
Are these prices what I'll actually pay?
They're list prices from providers' own published menus, not quotes. Expect the final figure to move with length, density, add-ons and who's in the chair, and expect tip on top.
