Hey Ladies,
I've been really busy this past week, but I wanted to relate this story to you guys about my last salon visit last weekend. Okay, so I'm at the salon to get a blowout since I have a wedding to attend and I'm like 8 weeks post touch-up (but I couldn't get a relaxer since I had been scratching my scalp)with hella new growth. There's another patron who when I walk in is already getting her hair blown out. Her hair is approx neck length and she appears to be natural. Meanwhile, I'm shampooed, put under the steamer, rinsed, etc. and the guy is still working on her hair. I'm actually in my stylist chair before she makes it to the respective stylist that will be doing her hair. Initially, it seemed like two of the stlist were trying to kind of pawn her off on the other. So the guy starts pressing her hair and I began reading my magazine. I look up to see this poor girl with tears running down her face. The receptionist gives her water and tissue, but the chick continues to cry and SIT THERE! At first, I'm like is she in physical pain, is she traumatized from all the heat/manhandling? I must admit they seemed like they were working really hard to get hair to "submit". But she SAT THERE NOT SAYING ANYTHING crying with snot rolling and everything for over 20 min (I acutally left her there still crying). At first I was going to get up from the chair to ask her if she was ok, but then the receptionist kept going ovet to her. Isn't that weird? Why would a grown-a** woman sit there like that? I'm not going to lie, I have left a salon or two in my lifetime close to tears after seeing the end result, but I've never bawled during the whole process. One thing I can say thanks to LHCF, I speak up and ask questions at salons alot more. Screw them, it's my money and I'm the customer.
