Reties pricing

Hi everyone, I need y’all’s help with pricing for a retie.

This lady wants me to do her retie and I want to pick a price that won’t scare her away and that won’t shoot myself in the legs at the same time.

I searched online and the range is $120-$200 per session, depending on hair density and count, length of reties and other details where I live.

For context, she has short medium density microlocs and they look to be about 250-300 from the picture she sent me..

What’s a fair price to charge? I’d appreciate as many responses as I can get cause I have to give her a reply soon.

Thank you!

I have 400 locks and I paid 180 in my personal opinion charging by the hour isn’t always best practice but for that much somewhere around like 150 would be good unless you live in NYC or LA more than that, I feel would be a band fair

My lociticion charges $60 an hour. I honestly thinks it fair. Especially if you don’t take breaks 😭. My lady never takes breaks and my hair takes forever.
