You ladies are so right, I started self relaxing in college because the area I went to school in had few ethnic salons there. When I graduated I moved to a larger city searching for a stylist only to find out that the prices they charge are ridiculus, some even charge a la carte services. One price for a relaxer, then extra for a trim, deep conditioner, steam service etc. Don't even get me started on trims. If they say you need a trim and you insist you don't or you recently have had one, they will argue with you tooth and nail about how "sistas" love to hold on to some damaged ends and then proceed to try and wear you down by telling you how "damaged" your ends look.
The bottom line is we all want bouncey shiney hair and no one knows your hair better than you do. I say if you want something done right, do it yourself.
I agree with everything you have said. I say cut her! All I know is 6wks from now I'm relaxing my own hair come helz or high water to try and straighten out this mess from last weekend. I know I can do better than what she did. And I will be starting in crown where most of the ng is there from where she left it. Good stylist are few and far in between.
