Would you pay $1,000 for a sew-in—and what should that price actually include? This week, your online sisters Courtney and Renée unpack the viral hair appointment controversy and the bigger questions it raises about Black women’s relationship with beauty, money and status. From surprise salon fees and “charging your worth” to the pressure to look expensive before building financial security, we discuss where luxury ends and exploitation begins, while giving talented hairstylists their due. Plus, we respond to a sister torn between her loving but unemployed boyfriend of four years and a financially stable man who’s reappeared. Join the conversation: what’s a beauty expense you’ll happily pay for, and where do you draw the line?
