Hairdresser is running late and I have a flight to catch!

I’m booked into my hairdressers first appointment of the day. I arrived ten minutes early and they’ve told me she’s running late as she got out of bed late!

She is very much aware of the fact I have a flight to catch. I booked this a lot with the explicit reason of it being because I have a flight this afternoon. She put a note on my record to say I was getting a flight.

What do I do?! AIBU to walk out if it gets to nine and she’s not ready?

I can’t believe posters are saying the OP is daft for booking a hair appointment the day of a flight. I literally do this every time I go away hahaha. My hairdresser was once running an hour late so I said sorry no can do because my flight was in four hours, she didn’t mind because technically she was the one who cancelled the appointment time not me.

But presumably anyone else that is having their hair done in the run up to a holiday wants it done for the holiday. If you don’t care about that, it’s all good, right?

Yabu to leave it until last minute to go to the hairdressers. People like you really irritate me. I work in retail and people will come in the morning off first day back at school and moan that we don't have school shoes in their childs size and it some how becomes my fault. Or come to pick up their currency on the way to the airport and then get annoyed because the travel money counter is closed or they can't get what they need. There is absolutely no need to leave everything until the very last minute.

This. Your hairdresser could have been ill or had an emergency- if its important to you, don't book it for the last possible opportunity.
