Method and unknowns

Only dated salon-owned menu observations for the named standalone service qualify. Add-ons, standalone gloss/toner, unrelated treatments, multi-visit packages and combined services are omitted; haircut washing/finishing and blowout ironwork remain named finishing scopes. Hair-color statistics cover base/root color and bleach-and-tone, excluding the specialty color topics covered by other guides. Each salon contributes its lowest matching numeric base amount once to the median; consultation-only rows are excluded. The displayed lower-amount range uses all qualifying service rows. Explicit per-unit, per-hour and per-foil rates are shown but excluded from the numeric summaries. Evidence is grouped by salon and named service, with no stylist identities. Unlinked published base amounts retain variant differences for the range; the median still gives each salon one vote. All API pages are consumed before aggregation.

This is recorded catalog evidence, not a complete market survey or a ranking of salon quality.
Published prices, business hours and booking links do not confirm a free appointment. Final scope, quote and policies need merchant confirmation.
Starting prices have no known upper bound. The range above is not a minimum/maximum final quote. No tax, gratuity or unpublished extra is invented.
A consultation-only count refers to matching services, not every service offered by that salon. Gender-neutral and explicitly categorized services may both appear in haircut guides.
