Half off color tint and foil - only $25 ($50 value) |
I found the above in my email inbox the other day from a certain daily-deal outfit with a perplexing logo (my Facebook friends know which one I'm talking about).
Two things here:
1) No, you're not complimenting your new cut — that would be to say, "Gee, new cut, you look great!" Rather, you are complementing your new cut, meaning you are completing or enhancing it. With a color tint.
2) Isn't color tint redundant?
(Actually, there's one more thing: the hyphen used as a dash. Stay tuned for more on that peeve.)
Be gentle. I use the hyphen dash all the time. ;-)
