Hairdresser ripped my earring out by accident...

Was getting my hair done today. I have a hoop earring in the cartilage of my ear. It's tiny and never had a problem with it before. I leave it in as I find it hard to take in and out.

Hairdresser had a ring on today and it got caught in my earring. Cue a lot of pain, a lot of blood and a tear in my ear. I won't be able to put it back in so will have to have it re-pierced. It was cleaned up, plaster stuck on it, hair finished.

She didn't really apologise and when she went over to her colleague at the till I heard her moaning about me having an earring in. Couldn't really make out all of what she was saying but I could tell she was pissed off. I definitely heard her say 'seriously I can't deal with any more difficult people today'

Until this point I hadn't made a fuss at all, I laughed it off, so thought this was unprofessional. It was just an accident.

I asked for a partial discount based on her being rude about it, and the fact that my earring had been ripped out.

So my question. WIBU to ask for a discount? (Which they refused btw).

OP it's not a case of not knowing, you should have insisted it went in their accident book... If you got an infection or blood poison there would be no record....

Angry Oh boo boo poor her she’s ripped your ear how annoying for her and how inconsiderate of you for ruining her day with your blood and injury she caused
