Hair Disaster---I should SUE for damages!

Get them to fix it for you (by another stylist), and free of charge. BTW, I totally feel your pain. I'm beginning to think my usual stylist has put a curse on me that every time I cheat him I'll end up looking like crap.

You should not have paid for the haircut at all!!!!! I learned in business law (a while back) that services, such as haircuts, that you are not satisfied with you do not have a liability to pay and they cant make you! Go back demand a refund or tell them to fix it. Bad hair is soo annoying and it seems like it takes forever to grow back.

Oh I feel so bad for you! I stopped going to fancy new salons. Last time I did that and asked for honeyblonde locks I walked out having a head with the color of a carrot. And they had the nerve to tell me it looked so cute and complemented my skintone better! I looked pale as hell.

I was too chicken to tell them they absolutely screwed up and that I would NOT walk around as Pipi Longstocking, but if I were you I'd go back!

I had an experience like that almost two years ago only mine was with color. I had darker brown hair at the time and I wanted to put highlights and lowlights in to make it more summery and fun. My hair was down to the middle of my back and layered. When i left the salon the first time I had bleach blond roots and orange tips. she said how cute it looked. Gah So the next day when I woke up I hated it cause it was wrong and not what i wanted. Her solution was to sew in hair extentions that matched the top and would help mask the bottom. Ok i am game. She SEWED them in with dark brown thread. and she put them in to tight. So the next day I go back she says she's gonna put a little bleach on it and try to double process it. I ask her if that is a good idea. She says it will be fine. I assume she is gonna put 20 volume bleach on it. NOPE she put 40 on and stuck me under the dryer left the salon for an hour and a half. I finally got out from under the dryer myself and sat at the shampoo bowl until someone shampooed me. when she started to style my hair. It broke off in giant chunks... Her solution was to treat it nice and condition it well and it would be ok. I was so furious my mother wrote her the check and we left. As I was walking from the salon to the car... just down the street hair was still just falling out of my head. my mother to me to her stylist (a super sweet old guy who does mostly blue haired old ladies) and he tried to fixes it as best he could. anyway when it was all said and done... I went from long pretty hair to hair that was about 5 inches the longest and lots of places were broken off pretty close to the root... It has taken almost two years and a few set of extensions for this to be fixed... I don't have any extentions now cause i cannot afford them but my hair still isn't as long as it was.... I hope everything works out for you. I was in tears almost everyday for two months while waiting for the roots to grow out so i could get the extensions. So don't beat yourself up for feeling bad about your hair. It very important to us girls.

I do hope you escalate to the salon manager. Especially since you are new to this city they should want to correct what they can in order to make you a content customer (though happy when too much hair has been cut off is difficult, I know:crybaby:).

this is just horrible! I know exactly how you feel, I freak out when my hairdresser cuts more than an inch off my hair. firstly, I would call and talk to the manager and see if you can at least get your money back. Secondly, go back to your hair dresser. I have been going to my hair dresser over 7 years now, and we just moved a year ago and I drive an hour and fifthteen minutes to see her, it's so worth it, it really is. because it's happened to me before, and I do not trust anyone with my hair.

Maybe it's one of those cuts that'll look better after 2 weeks? I read somewhere that haircuts usually look their best 2 weeks later 'cos that's when the hair grows to the right length for the look.

I hope you feel better now that you've had a fews days to kinda grow used to it; on the flipside shorter hair takes a few years off everyone so now you'll look slightly younger than you did with longer hair?

How'd your colleagues react to your new haircut? I hope they thought/think that you rocked the look!
