Nelson D'Leon.......

Do you think $800 is NUTS to pay for hair on my wedding day???

Oh my! I don't know who that is but I think it is A LOT money to pay for hair!

Honestly yes I do think it is nuts.

If you are wealthy and have tons of money then go for it. But if you have to save up for it then I think you can find a wonderful hair person that charges $125 and will do a fabulous job on your hair.

Re: Nelson D'Leon.......

I would totally pay it if it was worth the $800. In other words, if he did something amazing that I loved.

Personally, I don't think it's worth $800
What can he POSSIBLY do to justify charging $800 that someone else couldn't do just as well for 1/8 of the price? - JMO

If you have that extra money and it's not an issue for you - then go for it. But if it's something that you're going to have to save for, or sacrafice something else for - then I don't think it's worth it at all..............

Re: Nelson D'Leon.......

I definitely DO NOT have that kind of money, but I also feel like I spent $3000 on a dress I'm only gonna wear once........LOL.... I'm gonna look into other people as well!! Thanks girls!!

Re: Nelson D'Leon.......

Nelson was a total splurge for me-- he had done some of my friends and they have looked amazing.. For me, I do not spend a lot on hair and make-up normally- so, I just felt like this was an indulgence I wanted to treat myself to. It is a total personal decision.

Nic,
This should sum up my opinion, since you know my spending habits: even I would not spend 800 bucks on my hair!!!

You can get an AMAZING hair stylist for like 100 bucks - You'll get the same thing as the 800 dollar guy can give you for like @ $250, if you really want to spend a lot.

Re: Nelson D'Leon.......

Having met Nelson I'd have to say no way, but that's based a very bad first impression and seeing Randella's photos I guess he can't be all bad.

Re: Nelson D'Leon.......

As I suspected - the majority of brides are saying you are CRAZY - but if you have the $800 to spare, go for it, why not!

Re: Nelson D'Leon.......

I agree with the others, I think it's crazy... I looked at Randella's pics and although her hair looks great, it doesn't look like $800 to me, that is JMHO.

Re: Nelson D'Leon.......

Re: Nelson D'Leon.......

Yeah, I think it's pretty nutz, too. But you know what? Several people think i'm crazy for giving 4 favors! LOL. So, I guess I'm nutz, too!!

BTW, Randella, your pictures look stunning!!

Re: Nelson D'Leon.......

Does he stay with you the whole day?
Perhaps than he may be worth, depending on how you feel. Otherwise, no way!

I will spend around 250, and thats a bit much, but my hair IS really really long! I don't think that for that price she can't do something like what he did.

I just don't think its worth that much.
