I want to sue Headmasters Salon

35 replies

sississy · 27/01/2012 23:08

So I walked into Headmasters today and asked if there was any possibility I could book colouring for tomorrow? The receptionist said yes and it will be £68 but you also need to book a blow dry which is £20...
I explained to her that I dont like blow dry, and I don't ever use hair drier, and I like to style my hair myself, is it possible I can just have the colouring procedure done?
She said it is their policy every colour procedure must be booked with a blow dry...
Now, I have a very messy curly crazy hair...Don't I have the right to keep it this way?
Is she ( I mean the salon) discriminating against me?

blimey what did you say to so offend on a blow drying thread?

Freshlettice · 25/02/2012 00:30

I really don't understand this blow dry policy. I have my hair cut and coloured regularly and my long suffering stylist doesn't bat an eyelid that I refuse to have it blow-dried. It' s even on my records. I wash and wear at home except to take a bt of moisture out, but blow drying always makes me look like a '70 s male model (think blonde pageboy) whereas leaving it alone gives me messy surfer type waves.

quite frankly thats hardly comment deleting worthy is it now!

My fab mobile hairdresser does me a full head of highlights, cut & blowdry for £50.

I'm sure years ago I went to a hair salon where they would let you sit and blast dry your hair yourself if you didn't want to pay for a blowdry - but no idea if that included people who'd had their hair coloured... Surely if they're 'proper' hairdressers they can cope with drying curly hair in an appropriate way? Confused - I'm sure a 'blowdry' doesn't exclusively mean a straight hair-almost-yanked-outta-your-scalp 'do' does it?

Are you American?

"Don't I have the right to keep it this way?" - yes you do, by not going to a hairdresser who wants to dry your hair.

Going is "american" a euphemism for "deranged"?
