Chris Appleton'S Hair-Raising Price Tag: The Six-Figure Service

Chris Appleton's Pricey Hair Secrets Revealed

If you thought a trip to the salon was expensive, wait until you hear what celebrity hairstylist Chris Appleton can charge! On a recent appearance on the "U Up?" podcast, Appleton, 42, dropped some serious numbers, admitting the most he's ever charged for a single service was a staggering $100,000. But don't worry – this price tag included travel and a full-blown situation, not just a snip and style.

“Like 100K, but that was to travel and stuff,” Appleton shared candidly, adding that such high fees are "a one off" and not the norm.

Appleton's work, priced anywhere from a modest $100 to six figures, caters to some of the biggest names in Hollywood. From Kim Kardashian's icy blonde transformation to Kris Jenner's chic blonde bob, his magic touch has graced the tresses of stars like Jennifer Lopez and Christina Aguilera. Yet, even with these eye-popping figures, Appleton notes, "then you get taxed 50 percent, then your agent takes something. It gets dwindled down.”

Celebrity Clients and Personal Tributes

Appleton's illustrious career isn't just about glitz and glamor. His recent self-help book-slash-memoir, "Your Roots Don’t Define You," offers a heartfelt glimpse into his relationships with his celebrity clients. He thanks Drew Barrymore for her unwavering support and Jennifer Lopez for being a guiding light in his career.

Lopez, 56, received a special shoutout in the acknowledgments for her friendship and wisdom. "Your generosity, wisdom, and belief in me have opened doors I never imagined," Appleton writes, expressing his gratitude for the role she played in his journey.

Personal Struggles and Triumphs

Beyond the salon chair, Appleton has been candid about his personal struggles, particularly with mental health. In a January 14 appearance on "Viall Files," he opened up about a particularly dark period in his life, sharing how acceptance became a turning point. "I didn’t really know what was next... but that was the beginning of the journey of finding acceptance," he said, reflecting on his path to self-discovery.

Appleton's story is not just about hair transformations but life transformations, inspiring many with his journey from self-doubt to self-acceptance.
