Medellin Peluquerías

There is something awesome that comes along with the high beauty standards here in Medellin…cheap salons!  There are hair/nail salons on every other block.  I’ve found that a good nail salon charges about 6,000 COP for either a manicure or pedicure.  Amazing hair cuts here are under 15,000 COP, and a full color, cut, and style will run about 90,000 COP.  I took advantage of the low prices and got some pretty crazy hair done.  Got to love the work.  Plus, many of the salons are full of wonderful people.  The one I go to exclusively hires gay male hair dressers, which I think is fantastic!
