1 /5 AngelMine345: TLDR: My hair was cut unevenly, and I had a bad overall experience with the hairdressers I had during this time. I hadnt had this happen before, its not something I expect of this salon.
I had Mariela for my appointment. I wanted a shorter hairstyle, so Mariela referred me instead to Natalie, who took over. My sister loved Mariela, she got her hair cut by her, so no hate to her. (Or anyone else, just venting my situation.)
Natalie proceeded to cut my hair, which I had initially been okay with. (Now, I want you to keep in mind that I cant see without my glasses - like AT ALL - and I took them off during the session to make sure she could cut the sides correctly.)
When it was all said and done, I put my glasses back on to see my hair one inch longer on one side and short on the other. I asked for an even cut with no layers, with a side part. She blamed the unevenness on my glasses, on my hair thickness, and side part, but I asked my mom, sister, and people around to assess the hair. They all insisted it was uneven, but the girl said it was not until we all told her it was.
Natalie cut my hair more and more, but still it was uneven and now my hair was much shorter than I had wanted. I started to become distressed and asked her to stop cutting. A woman came by the name of Maritza/Missy, and she insisted it was all in the balance of my hair.
Now, while she didnt claim that anyone made a mistake at that time, she did say she could fix my hair at no cost (which was kind, yes). She said I could come early in the morning the next day since I declined to have anyone else cut my hair that day. I came in early with my mother, but it was another 15 minutes before she let us in and she claimed she was busy.
During my cut, she did claim a mistake was made, but kept making offhand comments about how she knew a lot about hair and that mistakes can happen to others. That it was all in the balance of the hair, and it doesnt matter if it seemed unbalanced, because she checked and said it was.
I left still slightly uneven and in a fouler mood than when it had began. As kind as the action was to offer to fix my hair, the way it happened didnt feel good. I admit I was anxious and distressed, but I think my distress was fair for the most part.
I had never had issues with this salon prior to this experience. I put my full trust into these people because I thought they would do a good job. I was wrong.
