Hair disaster… thoughts?

WWYD if you left the salon with the below….

apparently this is a stretched root.

Do you not like it then ? Go back and tell them you don't like it like this and you want it touching the roots .

I like the colour but yeah, it just needs to roots more done.

That is not a stretched root, it is not blended enough. You need to go back and get them to fix it. Get some pictures from google of what a stretched root looks like. The whole point of the stretched root is so its low maintenance and looks okay when its grown out, but that just looks like a strip of roots regrowth.

Ask to fix it if you don’t like it? Looks fine to me but I’m not good with this stuff!

I'd go back and ask them to fix it.

That's not a stretched root, it basically looks like 6 weeks regrowth after highlights.

They need to stretch the roots out the same length again at least, and blend the blonde in much more.

I would be more concerned with your eyebrows. They really stand out. Could you get them tinted maybe?

Omg this happened to me recently. I’m seeing another stylist to correct it next month because I lost faith that my stylist can do it properly. It does look like you need your roots doing, even though it’s freshly coloured

Your overall colour is gorgeous. It looks like you are on the way in to get your roots done. That’s not a stretched or a smudged root. I’m not sure what they’ve actually done to the roots at all tbh but like I say your actual colour/highlights are beautiful.

😂😂😂 I thought you were being a bitch for a second! That’s briliant! 👏👏

That is not a stretched root and there is a clear demarcation line. It needs blending much better than that. I would be asking for it to be corrected.

Fwiw I understand that the inch at the roots isn't quite what you wanted, but your hair looks really and thick and shiny, and the colour is lovely. I would defo swap your "disaster" for my hair even on its best day!

I really love the overall colour! As others have said though that is not a stretched route (or it's a poorly executed one). Just go back and have them fix it.

This looks exactly like my hair colour, but when I choose to just have the roots done. Depends what you paid. Roots cost me £38 and my highlights £75

😂😂👏

It’s not blended enough at the front on the right hand side of the photo but it Dosen’t look awful, I personally don’t like it when all highlights go as far as the root as it looks to unreal, a bit of root is fine

Any professional hairdresser can offer advice please 😢

That’s definitely not a root stretch, and if the hairdresser did one then it was done badly. The whole point is that it’s meant to blend in so that regrowth isn’t obvious - you’ve got a very clear line between the two colours!

Well I wouldn’t be happy that they’d put a big heart cartoon with eyes on my face.

Joking aside is stretched root the same as a root drag OP? I had one once and it was very much not a root drag.

Im not a hairdresser but it looks like it needed a toner on it.
