Artistic Hair

PREFACE: I only went to this salon because a group-​discount site was offering «$ 75 worth of hair services» for $ 22, including a cut, color, dry AND style. That really should’ve been a red flag — no way that all of that is ever gonna go down well for $ 22.
REVIEW: The owner and stylist is really nice. In fact, I feel like a dickhole writing this review, but…
— The place is dirty and looks cluttered. Workers’ personal items, such as their fiber powder and dirty hand towels, are visible everywhere. I know that salons are usually just glorified rooms but I want to feel like I’m in a business. Otherwise, I would just ask my friend to cut my hair in my bathroom.
— Is it common sense to not wearing earrings (studs) to the salon? If so, I retract this bullet point. But when the girl was washing my hair, she kept accidentally pulling the studs off my ears. It aches.
— My head also aches. When the stylist was drying my hair, she kept slamming the brush against my head.
— My hair smells. I smell like someone who hasn’t showered for three weeks and attempted to conceal it by dousing a bottle of cologne on my head.
— I asked her to trim an inch off my long hair, but she barely trimmed anything. It took literally three minutes to cut my hair entirely. Usually it takes a stylist at least 15 minutes for my hair since there’s so much of it.
In conclusion, this was my own fault (see «PREFACE»). On the bright side, since I was smart enough to ask for the most subtle trim ever, my hair isn’t irreparably damaged! I just need to take a shower ASAP since the smell is clearing my sinuses.
