ISO stylist for long to short cut on fine hair
New to DC and needing a hair stylist recommendation. I have let my hair grow out and would like to cut 10-12 inches off to do a hair donation. (Have grown out and cut off to donate about 6 times already, so not emotionally attached to long hair) I have natural fairly straight, fine hair, but a lot of it. I really mean a dense pony tail for how fine the texture is.
I am looking for a stylist to take my hair from long to off my shoulders. But also need somebody that can do some consulting because I have made it to my 40's with no idea of a cut that looks good on me besides long. I am a bit of a blank canvas and need a professional opinion.
Comfortable going up to the $150 range if it's the right fit. I live in Navy Yards, but very willing to travel, preferably someplace I can get to via metro or bicycle.
