NYC City Guide: Best Cheap Haircut

If you're looking for a cheap haircut; i.e. under $50 for women, I highly recommend Tease on 2nd Avenue. I found Tease after finding a review in NY Magazine and have been going for the last few years. I usually get Jason but have had a few people and they're all good. But what makes the experience extra, extra special is their head massages while they wash your hair. Seriously. To die for. I'd take a head massage over complimentary tea any day. Last week I decided to take the plunge and chopped off all my hair. With a few celebrity photos I had compiled on Pinterest for reference, Jason was able to transform my hair from a safe but shapeless mid-length to a bold, curl embracing cut. Change your hair, change your life right? Perhaps with my age appropriate cut, I'll finally stop getting carded.
