Price for a weave!!!!?

Ok tomorrow a neighbor of mine is going to put in a sewn in weave on for me , i bought the hair already and all the supplies that she will need. she is charging me 225 just to put it in, she says it's because im hispanic and it takes longer to do our hair than black hair, so my question is , is that a good price to pay or will i be overpaying, i've seen her work and it's okay, but will they charge less at a solon.

holy **** you are getting overcharged!

There's no time difference in braiding/sew-ins regarding race...she's full of it to get your money. Most people never pay over a hundred to get sew-ins! And most likely, she's not doing a full head of sew-in tracks, I'm guessing you're just getting it for fullness and length...so really you're only going to have about 5 tracks - most salons charge about 10 - 20 per track, schools charge 5. That's braiding and sewing in.

GO TO A SALON AND DON'T GET SCREWED.

if she's doin micro braids (really small ones) then it's an okay price. If she's just braiding your real hair and then sewing the weave in, then 225 is WAYYYYY too much!

Interlocking and sewn-in weaves are $225 and up, strand to strand weaves start at $800, but these prices include the actual hair weaves. I'd say go to a salon and compare prices.

You should call around to different salons and tell them you want a sewn-in weave, you are Hispanic, what your hair texture and length is, and see what price they give you. Understand that some salons may charge this or even more, but you're neighbor is not doing this in a salon, so i don't think she should be near this price range. It's true that it does take a little more work when doing Hispanic hair but i don't know about $225 worth. If you are a good stylist the differences in hair shouldn't matter. I personally would never charge that much. All i have to say is that for $225 your hair better be all that and it better last a good while. Be sure she's aware of that.
