$100 for a hair cut?!

Tweets Kimberlee Kruesi, the fine Associated Press "reporterette" -- her word, not Huckleberries -- "The men in the (Idaho legislative) press room are currently shocked at how much us reporterettes spend on hair cuts." Huckleberries, of course, had to ask Kimberlee: How much do you pay for hair cuts? Answer: "It's not unusual to pay $100 or more for highlights and a cut." Your Huckleberry Hound pays $10 (senior discount) for a haircut + $3 tip (Editor's Note: Yeah, and we can see the difference b/n Kimberlee and you.) Kimberlee considers the C-note to be an investment. Which she tries to stretch out for 10 weeks.

Question: How much do you pay for a hair cut? And how often do you get one?
