Deal: $20 for a haircut, blow-dry and styling at Cirrus Salon
Grade: A
For the past 2.5 years, I’ve only gotten my hair cut at either SuperCuts or HairCuttery in DC — I usually keep it very low maintenance and just get my hair cut straight across, let it grow out and then chop it off. Over Christmas, my mom suggested (as only family members can suggest) that I try out a new hairstyle…and get a haircut that costs more than $17.95. Soon after this suggestion, I found out I was moving to Charlotte, and added getting a haircut to my list of things to do during my “settling in week”. During my last week in DC, I found Cirrus on Groupon and decided that this would be the Salon for my “new style”…especially given the fact that I could spend the same amount of money that I did at SuperCuts or HairCuttery, but get a much better quality cut.
Yesterday, I booked an appointment with Josh at Cirrus Salon in Charlotte. I must admit that I was a little nervous beforehand, not because I was going to a new salon, but because I was going to be trying a new hairstyle — my plan was to chop my hair a little above the shoulders and layer it — but what if I didn’t explain it right and came out with a terrible hairstyle?!
Josh sat me down, discussed what he thought would work best given my not-so-great description of what I wanted. Throughout the whole haircut, I felt like I was in great hands and in the end, I loved my new haircut!

The entire experience was great — the salon was very clean and the people working there couldn’t have been nicer, and as a Groupon customer, I got the option to book my next appointment at 30% off. While I’ve tried many awesome Groupons, this is the first yet that I plan to return to and use again.
