Okay, yesterday after school I went to this hair cutting place.. I asked for a trim when I got there but they made a stupid mistake and cutted like 2 1/2 inches off of it and my hair was like 7 or 8 inches... Not only she took length off, she also made it look HORRIBLE!!! she made the layers messed up, the hair length she cut is uneven, and she the results came out into this buldgy feminen looking cut...
Alright, after she finished it she came out with the HUGE BULL saying "Wow! I love it! Looks great!!" so I can leave. There's this junior high right next to the hair cutting place.. They all knew who I was from last year because I went to the junior high school and they stared at me funny thinking "look at that guy's hair".. I walked in the van and my mom looks at me funny and I'm like "does it look better?" and she doesn't really answer.. As soon as I got home I wore a hat and like 10 minutes later my brother came home and he's like "how was the hair trim?" and I'm like "I don't think it came well" and I took the hat off and he's like "jesus, that does look horrible... What was the hair dresser thinking?".. He immediately brings me to his girlfriend which she knows alot about hair cutting and she's like "oh my god, dan, what have they done to you? it looks horrible!" and she tries to thin out the hair and does anything she could to fix it but she made it look a little better but she says that in order for it to look right she'll either have to cut more length off or I have to bare with it for like a month or so... WHAT AN IDIOTIC HAIR DRESSER!!! WHAT THE HECK WAS SHE THINKING!?!?!??! I told my brother's girlfriend I'd probably get made fun of at school and she's like "no, I'm sure they won't" and my brother is like "are you kidding?!?! Of course they're going to make fun of him, look! It's really bad and it looks very feminen. I hope the teachers let you wear hats".. Once again, what the heck was the hair dresser thinking getting me to leave to store with these results? It looks so horrible and she ought to get fired.
You absolutely should go back and complain to the management at the hair cutting place. No business wants unhappy customers, and you might save someone else from the same fate.
I can understand you may be embarrased, but there are people here who know a lot about hair. If you post a picture, you may get some suggestions for how to make it look better.
Totally agree... except when you go back an see the manager/headsylist get him/her to sort your hair if they can... similar thing happened to me once with highlights (it was awful... but my hair was only short then) an I got the manager of the salon to fix it... he did his best anyway...
You should have refused to pay... but you probably never realised at the time how bad it was..? been there.
Hey Dan
Sorry to hear about that mate - I've had it happen to me once before too - I was livid!!
Sometimes these people (hairdresses) don't stop to think that they are messing with people's self-image and self-confidence, others mean well but just don't get it.
Best Advice I can give you is Don't rush into doing anything else to "fix it." Cool off over the weekend, identify what's wrong with it in your own mind, and figure out how you are going to explain that the person who you are going to ask to fix it. Communication is going to be the key to getting it put right.
Hope you have a better time with it next week.
Cheers

Go back to her and ask if she would allow you to give HER a nice trim...
If you think she would let you mess up her hairstyle...
think again!
That should be printed out and passed to helgast's parents!! Maybe they would be less inclined to make him get a trim then :)
