Cheaper salons in Halifax?

Just went to Vitality in Bedford and got a wonderful cut and highlights but was shocked to see the price was $315 😭😭😭 I went last summer for the same thing and it was about $280 so it's gone up some but I feel this is just way too high? Is this in line with other salons?

I have longer hair but it's fine, and got about $100 in extra charges for "extra product" aka more toner and lightener.

Are there any salons that do a great blonde highlight and cut closer to the $200 range? I just feel $300+ is unhinged.
