Ok so today I had this client I did hi-lites on.. she wanted a partial and wanted it really suttle.. SHE STRESSED TO ME ABOUT 50 TIMES SHE DID'NT WANT CHUNCKY OR BOLD BLONDE HI-LITES... That she wanted it to look natral like she went to the beach and it lightened her hair.
Well so I proceed with the service.. She gets to telling me that she always comes to our shop HAIR CUTTERY To only get her hair cut.. (WE'RE A AVARAGE PRICED SALON , Our particular Hair Cuttery is what they call a A SALON Cause our prices are a tad higher than the other Hair Cuttery's which normally means these "A SALONS" Are located in really rich upity areas) Anyhow.. she tells me she NEVER GETS ANY CHEMICAL SERVICES IN OUR SALON**sighs** She goes up the street to this private salon FOR HER HI-LITES... LOL She was telling me she normally pays like 130$(FOR ONLY A PARTIAL NOT EVEN A FULL HEAD AND THIS LADY HER HAIR IS ABOVE HER SHOULDERS!!!!!) Anyhow.. as I started doing the hi-lites .. THEIR WAS ALREADY DOUBT IN HER TONE... She says "WHY ARE YOU STARTING THEM THERE? , HOW COME SO MANY FOILS? I DON'T REMEMBER MY OTHER GIRL HAVING THEM THIS HEAVY"
OMG!!!! WTH... I wanted to kick her out of my chair and be like "LOOK LADY LET ME GET THESE FOILS OFF UR HEAD AND YOU RUN AND GO PAY UR LIL 130$ TO UR GIRL THAT DOES UR HILITES" OMFG.. Don't start with me.. I HATE IT WHEN CLIENT THINK THEY KNOW IT ALL ABOUT OUR TECHNICAL PART OF WHAT WE DO.. THAT IS SOMETHING I CAN BARELY TOLERATE...
WE DID GO AND GET DEGREES AND ARE LICENSED PROFESSIONALS YA KNOW???
I mean DO THE STUPID FREAKIN CLIENTS WHINE TO THEIR DOCTOR AND SAY "WHY DO I HAVE TO TAKE THIS MEDICATION , OR WHY ARE YOU DOING THE PROCEDURE TO TREAT MY ILLNESS LIKE THIS ???" HELL NO!!!! DAMMIT.. I THINK WE ARE RIGHT UP THEIR NEXT TO DOCTORS AND OUR PROFESSION SHOULD BE TREATED AS SUCH!!!!
OMG.. I HATE PEOPLE LIKE THIS!!!
I SWARE IF THAT LADY COMES BACK I AM NOT DEALING WITH HER OR AM I GONNA REDO HER HILITES...
I spent like 2 hrs ON THIS LADY WITH HER DANG PARTIAL HILITES AND BLOWDRY... 50$ WHAT I CHARGED HER.. HOW BOUT SHE TIPS ME A 5 DOLLAR BILL!!!! WTF ... A AVARAGE TIP FOR A CHEMICAL IS 10$ AROUND HERE NE WAYS.. SO LOL SCREW HER!!!
OK OK SHOOT.. SORRY... I HATE BEING DISCREDITIED.. AND I KNOW SURE AS HELL I DID A KICK ASS JOB ON HER HAIR!!!!!
