Haircuts

I've been going to the same hair salon since I moved to the Chicago area in 2001. I even stayed at the same salon when the stylist I was going to left, but now the second stylist I've been going to is about to start maternity leave. She'll be coming back in March, but with my hair, I can't wait three months for a haircut. I think I'm going to use this opportunity to check out a couple of places closer to home. I could afford to play a little bit more for a haircut (another $5 or so) if I didn't have to drive so far to get my hair done.
