Hair

I'm trying to narrow down my choices for hair the day of the wedding. I would ideally like to book for the WP by the 5-6 month mark. I normally get my hair cut at the Douglas J Institute, but I'm not going there the day of for several reasons. I also don't want to go to the regular Douglas J because it looks like it's out of my price range. My plan is to pick a place (or possibly narrow it down to 2), and go in for a regular hair cut to see how I like the people and atmosphere.

These are my top contenders.

- Salon Meridian
- Panopoulos Salon
- Bride Street Hair Co in DeWitt

Does anyone have experience with any of these places? I've mostly selected these three off of reviews I've seen online. I went through the "tell us about your vendors" sticky on this page to look for ideas too lol. I'm looking for someplace that won't cost the bm's more then $35/$40. Mine I'm willing to go more like $50-$60, but less would be great too. I need hair only, not makeup. Any thoughts are welcome, or other suggestions! TIA.

ETA: also, does anyone have pricing info on Salon Meridian? I've found it on the other two places, but not this one.

I'm going to Douglas J, but my wedding coordinator always recommends Panopoulos Salon to her brides.  She says they do a wonderful job for a low price.

If you look at Meridian's Facebook Page they have prices on there.
It was helpful for me.

Oh thanks! I didn't even think to check and see if they have a fb page.

I went to Panopolus to get hair/makeup done last July for my friends wedding. They were really great -- we all brought pictures in of hair we liked and they really did a great job replicating the picture!  Their pricing is weird because it's based off of the stylist experience -- so each of us had a different final bill for our hair... but they were great!

I actually booked my entire bridal party to get hair/makeup there for August!
