Iconoculture: 2009 style and trim trend: Go stealth? As consumers go to great lengths to stretch their dollars, home hair-cutting parties are an accessible option. Private coif parties aren’t new, but a struggling economy has caught stylists illegally accepting evening shifts, offering up lovely locks for fewer bucks.
Some stylists report an uptick in consumers asking for these “under-the-table” deals.
Consumer and hair-party regular Manoush Zomorodi says she regularly attends hair soirees in Manhattan, where she pays $60 for a high-tier salon stylist (whose name and employer she keeps anonymous), a fraction of the price she would pay at the salon she’d like to go to, but can’t afford.
