After years and years of bad haircuts or highlights, I have finally decided that I will not pay another penny to somebody who messes up my hair. The problem is that, after spending an hour or two with somebody, you feel a moral obligation to these people who you have had conversation with. It is emotional blackmail. They get paid from the goodness of people not to want to hurt other people's feelings, naturally. I have decided that NOBODY who messes up my hair gets an OUNCE of my kindness. Last week, I stook in Regis and caused a SCENE until the haircut was fixed. I scolded the manager for being incompetent at holding her employees accountable, and I scolded the hairdresser for not paying attention to my clear directions. I yelled so loud that the whole salon could hear me. I then spoke very loudly to the woman who fixed the haircut that she should be disappointed that she is having to fix a co-workers mistake rather than having a pleasant day with her own happy customers. The next hour and a half while I was there was VERY TENSE for all the employees, intentionally. The woman who did the original cut hid the entire time. Once the cut was done, I tipped the lady who fixed it and I informed the manager that I would not be paying for anything more and that she was lucky that I was not going to sue the salon. They did nothing to stop me. I finally turned the tables around on them. I suggest you stick up for yourself next time. IT WORKS!!
