Hairdressers

[Diana]

trying to perfect this scrunch drying method,and must say I am improving my skills with AFW hints.Decided to visit the professionals this morning, and now a couple of hours after the visit my hair has flopped to straighter than it naturally is.So I am really dissapointed as well as being out of pocket $50 (althoughit could have been$90) if I had of brought the product.Do you think I should ring back and say I am not happy,or just leave it go,its alot of money for me.,
{My hair was shampooed,not cut and dried off with a diffuser)

[Gin please!]

i'd ring them and just say to them... "just to let you know that this morning I came in and had my hair done and it's already fallen out and is straight again"..and see what they say.

They might offer you the product free to make up for your hair..IYKWIM...

cont like your chances if you walked out of the salon looking satisfied and it is only a blow wave scrunch thing then if it fell out well who knows and I am a hairdresser we certainly wouldn't reimburse or give any free products

[Stormy]

Maybe your hair can't hold a wave/curl without heavy duty product? :dk:

I know my hair doesn't....even a couple of hours in rollers didn't inspire a nice head of curls for my formal. They fell out within an hour or two and my hair was just wavy for my photos. :(

(Not that I blame the hairdresser, it's not their fault my hair is non-compliant)

Hair has a tendency to lend to a certain 'do'. Not everyone's hair can do everything. You've just got to work with what you have when doing it yourself, and your hairdresser (if familiar with you) would know what potential your hair has for special occasions. I, personally, would not complain.

Good luck with it.

[miss kiki]

i wouldn't complain either if it was just styled..
if it was cut, dyed, or you had highlights put in, then that's a different story..i'd feel more of a need to complain then and have them fix it free of charge. :yes:

[lucyloo]

I wouldn't complain either Diana. Did they wash it? Sometimes hair holds curl a bit longer if the hair isn't so clean...:)

[sandydee]

nope I wouldnt complain either

[Gin please!]

Sorry girls... but if I paid $50 for my hair to be done and it fell out a few hours later I'd have to say something...

[Di Nana]

Gin your quite entitled to say what you like, but pretty sure it wouldn't get you any where Hairdressers can not guarantee how long your hair will hold a blow wave, as long as you are satisfied with how it looks when you leave the chair, what happens to it after you walk out the salon door is not up to them, It is not a permanent or even semi permanent, that is a different story
most people know how well or not so well there hair holds a blow wave so maybe a consultation is necessary to determine a longer lasting style , there can be semi permanent things that can be down
$50.00 dollars is not asking over the top

[Gin please!]

Fair enough...

[Di Nana]

Sorry if I sounded abrupt just re read, I sometimes get a little carried away when people think Hairdressers can work miracles, we can only go by with the materials we have, like a builder can't make a mahogany table from ply board in saying that this is not directed at Diana
I just used to get so angry when clients would come in with a pic and wanted there hair just like that and if you gave advise explaining that there hair would never cooperate as the models and maybe something else there was no budging them.
Forgive me I have just started menopause :blink:

[Gin please!]

All is forgiven:D..xox

[Diana]

I forgive you also.
The young girl/woman who did my hair was around my own sons age so i didnt want to get her into trouble,we all have to start some where.I did ring to say the style didnt hold and i added it may have been due to the leave-in conditioner she mixed with the gel.My hair is thick but fine,and I only did this thinking it may be of some help in the future.Really I wasnt happy at the salon but did say "it is okay I suppose"when asked.Anyway I didnt want to make a fuss I was just dissappointed and had been looking foreward to the appt.,and I know $50 isnt alot of money but when on a DSP it is .

[Happy]

My hair doesn't hold heavy product.
I have tried & tried with waxes etc,nothing helps me.

[Melinda]

it doesnt matter what a hairdresser does to me my hair doesnt hold a style my hair is just to thick and heavy....i dont think you have anything to complain about....also its hard on the hairdresser to know your hair after doing it once.....

[Kekka]

...also its hard on the hairdresser to know your hair after doing it once.....

Agreed. :)

my hairdresser has a laugh to herself when people turn up with a celebritys picture and want to look like that when they have totally diffrent hair.....

[Kekka]

That's a cack Melinda. :hehe:

[Melinda]

That's a cack Melinda. :hehe:

priceless...i believe jennifer aniston's pic's gets waved around a lot....:hehe: from people with really thick hair...LMAO

[Teeka]

I wouldnt complain, but if I was going back there i would mention it so they could use something stronger.

[Diana]

Yes thats what I did so it could be on my computer profile that the leave -in conditioner is too heavy for me,everything else the hairdresser did was fine eg. using gel,drying with the diffuser with upturned head and leaving it damp so no I dont have anything to complain about.

[miss kiki]

i love jennifer aniston's hair! :yes:

[2catscan]

My hair would never hold a wave, it was very soft, thick and heavy. It was straight but there was always a bit that would kink up the wrong way!
Now I wear it cut less than an inch long all over - something I always wanted to do but thought it wouldn't suit me - but it does! My hairdresser is Vietnamese and she does the cut for $18, pretty good. I just say "Man cut please",LOL!
