For years, since the early 1990's, I went to a hairdresser who I really liked as a person and as a hairdresser. Even when she had health problems, and others substituted for her, when she returned to work, I used her. But I used to be able to get a Saturday morning appointment. When she stopped working Saturdays, I was able to finagle late afternoon appointments for a long time. But as her health deteriorated, those appointments were harder to cadge.
So, I live just a few blocks from a Pro Cuts outlet http://www.procuts.com/, and have been using them. I cannot say I have identified a hairdresser that I want to use every time. When I like one, that person is no longer at the shop the next time! Well, the last time I had my hair cut, "Frank" did it. He did a good job. Today, when I went in, he was the hairdresser next available. He asked me if I wanted a shampoo and a style. I had not ever thought about a style. I just want a hair cut that allows me to wash, comb and not have to do anything else. Which is what Frank gave me.
Maybe, if there is something special in my future, I will get a shampoo and style. But that is so not me.
