At the Playacar Plaza shopping center, the same 1/2 head braid was offered for $30.00. My wife actually got her 1/2 braid done the day we went to Akumal (which is my next day's trip report) for $20.00. She had it done Tuesday and took it our Sunday, the day before returning to work. The farther away from the Tourista zone you are, the cheaper it is.

Be aware that if your wife does this, you ought to have some strong sunscreen to put onto her scalp between the braided rows - rememeber that your wife's scalp has never seen the sun! My wife learned the hard way and is still paying fr it today!

Please post your TR after you return & share your experiences with the rest of us as well! Thanks!
Ken,
Thanks again for the info. My wife is looking to get her whole head done. Will be sure to get her some great sun screen for the scalp.
I look forward to sharing all of our stories and pictures with everyone when we return.
