juldea and I both need to get our hair trimmed. We're both quite fond of our long hair, but have let damaged ends grow out for way too long, and are looking to get trims from someone who can figure out how much needs to go, but still understands the meaning of "just a trim". Once upon a time Juldea had a person named Helen at a place called Savvy who got it, but unfortunately she no longer works there.
Recommendations? Cheap is good, too.
