Koffie said:I made an appt. yesterday to get my hair done today. The stylist told me to come at 5:00, so I did.
I walk in and then it goes similar to this
Her: Its 5:00 already?
Me: yeah
Her: well I have to finish the head I'm working on, and then I have two more ahead of you. What makes you thinks you can walk up in here like that, you gon' have to sit down and wait like ee'ry body else. (mind you she told me to come at five for the appt.)
And the people ahead of me would take longer that 4 hours, because one was a guy that had long thick hair that needed to be braided, and I forgot what the other wanted.
Me: ***insert stupid look on face for 15 seconds***Well I will just reschedule for next week, I have some things I need to do
Her: you budgeted your time for today... blah, blah, blah and some other smart mouthed stuff)
Me: okay I'll be back later
Her: don't get lazy on me and not come back and not call, because I will leave you a message that will not be nice
Me: walks out the door and laughs it off.
Her: I'm not playing
She also had an audience while she straight up clowned me ya'll, and her tone was not nice. I don't wan't to talk to her or let her do my hair because of her attitude. Granted, she has been doing my hair since I was 13 (I am 21 now 22 in June of this year), and she got skills, but that still shouldn't make her comfy enough to dis me the way she did.
I suppose she thinks she can talk to me any kinda way since she is my mom's friend from high school.
I just feel I at least owe it to her to call her and politely tell her I will not need her to do my hair. But I don't even want to do that 'cause she was so darn mean to me
I called one of my friends from high school who is also a stylist and she was a good comforter to talk to about this, and I think I will be going to her from now on becuase she got MAAAD skills and she is cheaper ( not to mention she wants me to grow my hair as long as possible)
But I don't ever want to go to my original stylist after 9 years, 'cause I feel that her service is no longer needed.
I don't want to go back tonight either (she is doing someone else's hair as I type), so I just wanted to know what ya'll thought.
I feel like if you settle for this behavior you'll receive something even worse. ( I am quoting an LHCF sista)
She should have the upmost respect for all paying customers. I would have told her not worry about it, "I'll go somewhere, wher they're professional" in a nice polite way.
She was trying to invalidate you, and by not saying anything she knows that she can keep disrespecting you and make you comprise on your morals and everything else.
If she isn't meeting your needs as a custome know she never will, that includes respecting you at all time. I had this stylist who was off the change. I thought I will never find anybody better. He kept disrespecting me, my hair got worst, and I found a perfect hair dresser to do my relaxers, and I found this beauty school to do my hair for $11 instead of $35, and yes they do it way better the regular salons. I wish I would have left earlier.
Never go back there! I will only get worse. Always leave when people act like that! Leave!
