Being a college student and saving money are two things that do not go hand in hand. The majority of college students are in the same financial situation, spending a lot of money and/or building debt instead of establishing credit. With the cost of school increasing annually, gas prices at a recent all-time high of over $2 per gallon, and the average cost of a Bud Light and a Jagerbomb running $2.75 and $7.00 each respectively, who has anything to put in the bank after paying the bills?
One thing most people can’t live without are haircuts. Some choose to get them more than others. Women, for example, spend more money on their hair in a three-month span than most guys do in a year.
When it comes to getting a haircut, there are two options it seems. Option one is a Great Clips haircut. That will run approximately $11.99, and you will get what you pay for! The other option is to go to a salon and pay an unbelievable price to get your hair styled.
Now we have a third option! Tanya’s, in the heart of Hyde Park Square, is offering 20 percent off to students who have a valid student ID.
“It’s a great atmosphere,” said Monica Nickell, a stylist at Tanya’s. “You can get a variety of things done here, then step outside and grab a coffee or some ice cream and get some shopping in with the money you’ll save.”
A man’s haircut and a woman’s haircut cost $28 and $38 respectively. Every haircut consists of a shampoo, cut, and style. To top it off, you’ll receive a complimentary hand and arm massage, along with a mini-facial. All of that is at regular price (before the student discount).
Tanya’s isn’t just some new salon offering discounts to get business. They understand being a student is expensive. They also were the winner of Cincinnati Magazine’s “Best of Cincinnati.” What a great deal! A quality haircut at a reasonable price, whoever came up with that concept must be a genius.
To sum things up, Tanya’s offers a wide variety of services including hair, nails and spa, make-up and image consulting, along with facials, treatments, and massages. They are located at 2716 Erie Avenue in the Hyde Park Square. directly above English Traditions. Feel free to check them out at www.tanyasimage.com or call 513-533-9400.
