Haircut from Hell

Last sunday my little brother needed to go to the hairdresser to cut off all his horrible dirty hair and beard.  Being a guy he doesn’t put too much thought into who cuts his hair and he goes to Just Cuts at the local Mall.  Their motto is “Style cuts for everybody” and I assumed that would mean they’d be capable of cutting my hair.  I usually go to a (cheaper) hairdresser that doesn’t happen to be open on sundays and my little brother offered to pay for me to have a haircut.

The hairdresser who cut my hair doesn’t speak english as her first language and I could just as well be blind without my glasses because my hair looks like a brown and pink blob.  I told her I wanted my hair chin length and layered and explained that my hair has a natural wave that makes the layers look good.  SHE THEN PULLED OUT SOME HAIR STRAIGHTENING TONGS AND FLATTENED MY HAIR!!!!!  The entire time she was cutting my hair I felt horrible and every time I tried to talk to her about what she was doing she didn’t seem to be understanding me.  I ended up sending Just Cuts an email through their website (with a fake phone number, I didn’t want to have to talk to them) and I got an email back saying she “has worked for me for the last 18 months I’ve never had a complaint like this about her. I spoke to her today and she was very upset to have caused you so much heartache. She has agreed to have an intensive English course so that others will not have the same terrible experience as you.”  That made me feel kind of guilty that I’m the only one who’s had a problem, but it still doesn’t take away from the fact that she’s ruined my hair and I have to wait for it to grow so I can get it re cut properly.
