OP are you sure you're not referring to the joke post from last week?

You aren't going to save money this way, but if you find the right handyman, you can pay more (through more hours) to learn the skills for next time. We have a longstanding relationship with ours, so he even spent two hours with our 17 year old to help teach some skills he wanted for a school project. And, oddly enough, i have done the same with my hairdresser! I paid for a full cut and she slept the time teaching me how to braid my daughters hair. Totally worth it!

On an unrelated note, anyone know of a hairdresser who will charge me less if I hold and hand the foils to her?

If you blow yourself my hairdresser will give you a discount.

That advice is for you and the previous blower.
