would have to pay for that service

The idea of character customization is one that allow people to be more individuals.... if you allowed people to change the way that their character looked, then no one would have to pay for that service...

If we are referring solely to dyes, then yes, there are other games that have that feature implented, yet where are those games now? The people want to be able to edit, to individualize their toon from the rest of everyone else.

The barber shop... I visit the barber shop.... ALOT. I like it, as it is one if not the only way to change something about your character, after a certain look gets old. I might be wrong, but is seems wow po shop as though there are different hairstyles and colors than what you can pick initially.

So if the barber shop had an alternate method of customizing your character, would you? and if so how often? Would it be worth Blizzard's time to add a feature that may only be once by everyone and then left to collect dust? Everyone plays the game differently, and although that is a loaded statement with a multitude of tangents, the majority vote is what counts.

I don't think that dyes would make or break the game, but perhaps allowing tailors to alter certain gear wouldn't be a bad idea in an attempt to give that prof a boost in money making... and allowing others to get some of what they ask for, everyone wins!
