I’m a bit of a unique salon owner. Even with 12 talented stylists and over 5,000 active clients, I’m still the one who answers the phone—and I do it quickly! I genuinely love that part of my job. One question I get a lot on these calls is, “How much do you charge for X?”
I understand—it’s important to know what your dream hair will cost. But honestly, that question is always a bit of a tricky one for me. Prescott is growing, but it’s still a relatively small town. It’s not Los Angeles, New York, or Seattle.
My vision has always been to bring that upscale, “big city hair” experience right here to Prescott. That means our pricing doesn’t always match what you might expect from a casual price comparison. I often hear, “My old stylist charged $150 for a cut and highlight—why is it $250 here?” So, I want to explain the why behind our pricing so you can decide if we’re the right fit for you.
Think of it like buying a car. If you walked into a Lexus dealership, you wouldn’t be shocked that their new sedans cost 40% more than an average Ford sedan. You also wouldn’t be surprised that a 2026 Lexus costs more than the same model did 15 years ago—thanks to inflation and the luxury factor. Luxury comes with a price, and that price has gone up over time.
But when it comes to hair, that same logical thinking often vanishes, and sticker shock sets in.
Imagine you’ve had the same stylist at a mid-level California salon for 20 years, paying their original 2006 prices. You’ve gotten used to that deal—below the industry standard. Then you move to Prescott, look for a great salon, and find Hair By Joey with nearly 700 five-star reviews. You check out our website, vibe with our luxury Zen atmosphere, read glowing reviews, see our work on social media, and you start to get excited!
You call, we chat, you book an appointment—and then, at the end, you ask, “So, what does it cost?” That’s when the sticker shock hits. Your heart sinks, and suddenly you find yourself shopping around, frustrated and amazed at what hair services cost these days.
When you think of Hair By Joey, think Lexus or BMW. There’s nothing wrong with Fords—tons of them on the road—but if you’re shopping for a Ford and dreaming of a Lexus, you’re going to be surprised by the price.
