Hairstyle disasters. What do you do?
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
Stylists and barbers from all over the country are in Atlanta for the annual Bronner Brothers’ International Hair Show, where they will learn about the latest styles and products.
All that hair under one roof got us thinking about some of the issues women, especially, have to deal with when it comes to their hair. There’s price, of course. And the style itself. A friend recently complained that her stylist had “jacked up” her ‘do and that lately she hadn’t been satisfied with her work.
Has that ever happened to you?
You walk into a salon with a picture of singer Rihanna with her fresh new haircut, but you leave looking like a mop head.
Now you have to endure those sympathetic looks from co-workers and the “it’s only hair, it’ll grow back” speech from your boyfriend.
The way we see it, there are just too many stylists around Atlanta to stick with someone who doesn’t do a good job. Most women spend over a hundred dollars a month for their crowning glory.
And when someone turns your crowning glory into a crown of thorns, it’s more than hair it’s personal.
So what to do next. Do you tell the person first and risk offending them and ruining a relationship. Do you just suck it out and pretend this is the next hot thing. Or do you have someone else try to fix it? Tell us about your hairs diasters.
