I've been going closer to work "cuttin up on College" and Beth is really good and knows what I want. I have a feeling if "trendy" and "edgy" is where they aim, they probably charge trendy and edgy prices too... $30 is the most I will pay for a haircut. I get 2 hour lunches and the first time I tried to get a cut I entered at least 6 salons ALL EMPTY OR ALMOST EMPTY and all wanted $50 for a cut... I had to walk 4 blocks before I stumbled onto Cuttin Up who wanted only $25.

You should know what you are getting into (they tend to be very edgy.) I have friends who had good and horrible experiences here. Check out all their YELP and Yahoo feedback before you book. http://www.yelp.com/biz/spank-salon-alameda http://local.yahoo.com/info-21399609-spank-salon-alameda?csz=Alameda%2C+CA I still feel sorry for the bride who got canceled on the day before her wedding, when she booked months in advance. My own cut here was, well, meh.

LUCKY ME!!! --US!!! she's now at SPANK Salon in Alameda --1912 Clement. I haven't had a haircut/trim or professional color since before xmas and had an of unruly tangled mess of a mane that NEEDED a professional. I feel like a star!!! Just wish I had plans for the evening besides packing up boxes to move to storage this weekend. If you want special star treatment too, ask for Isabella @ 510 521-9100 Double Plus---plenty of free street parking. :) Sat, 18 Apr 2009 03:21:31 GMT http://AlamNonAnon.tribe.net/thread/f4bd37ac-fab6-4392-a25e-bd15f9c2b2d6#fe0869d6-1ed2-462d-8bcb-ea857308db31 Å₤ ℧å 2009-04-18T03:21:31Z
