Im a customer.

Girl has come in with hair down to her bum.

Requested it's cut to the collar bone.

Stylist tied it in little pony fails and cut removed the bands and it's up her neck the girl hasn't seen it properly yet and it looks slightly longer in the front. They have taken her over to wash her hair.

Omg omg omg shes going to go mad! She's just returned from basin whilst I'm typing! That is not collorbone length they have fucking bobbed her!!

Keep us posted...

If she's like me she'll thank them heartily and then go home and cry (like I did with a bad haircut once).

WhenEnoughIsEnough · 17/07/2018 13:16

Oh my goodness I know people say it's only hair it will grow back but I would probably raise hell.

Shameless placemarking

A salon once called the police on me because I wasn't happy with my hair and refused to pay. Grin

HollowTalk · 17/07/2018 13:16

Wow, I would have thought they'd leave it a few inches longer so they could double check exactly how much she wanted off.

I worked in a salon when I was young and the manager refused to cut off a woman's hair. Her hair was beautiful and he said he thought she'd change her mind. He ended up going out with her Grin

Pipeup · 17/07/2018 13:17

He is now cutting it to give it some style I can see the girl in the mirror she's gone really quiet I know it's only hair but I feel sorry for her. Stylist realised he's fucked up and is now talking about graduations..... She asked for one lengh hair!!! This is bad!

Oh no!

HappyGowerGirl · 17/07/2018 13:17

AlleyG what was the outcome of that situation?!?!

AndInOtherNews · 17/07/2018 13:17

Oh Jeez...she'll either love it or hate it 🙈

ElderflowerWaterIsDelish · 17/07/2018 13:18

Oh . My. God Grin you HAVE to tell us her reaction

Ratbagcatbag · 17/07/2018 13:18

Wow. That will be a huge transformation. I did similar but went a lot shorter (up to pixie cut!) but my choice!!!!

ImAGoofyGoober · 17/07/2018 13:18

Aww shit!

Tink2007 · 17/07/2018 13:19

I hate it when that happens :(

Fitzsimmons · 17/07/2018 13:19

Oh no, this happened to me once. I specifically asked for my hair to be cut below my jawline. They cut it to above my jawline and with my very square jaw I looked awful for several months.

Thebluedog · 17/07/2018 13:19

Oh poor girl... I’m one of those ‘ohh it looks so lovely, thank you’ then cries when I get home

HemanOrSheRa · 17/07/2018 13:19

If she's like me she'll thank them heartily and then go home and cry Grin. Yup. Same here.

Strawberrybelly · 17/07/2018 13:20

Oh dear.

Rachie1986 · 17/07/2018 13:20

Oooh no. Though if it was me I would just say thank you and cry to myself later..

Pipeup · 17/07/2018 13:20

It's not my hair and I have a lump in my throat! Her poor hair is just laying there all lifeless and limp on the side still attached to the hair bands. She's gone red in the face like she's holding tears back. And the salon is empty apart from me and this girl.

Wouldn't mind but this is a pricey salon...Im only having a balayage £150

A cut in this place is nearly 70 quid!

Poor girl has been practically fucking scalped!

I don't understand how a professional hairdresser can make such a monumental mistake. She clearly said cut it to the collarbone so there's no excuse for cutting it shorter than that. She should complain.

Sleepyandtired21 · 17/07/2018 13:23

Eurgh there’s nothing worse than a bad hair cut. Poor girl she must be feeling rubbish right now. I hope she doesn’t tip!
