A question for hairdressers

[scoobydooby]

Every now and again, I'll visit a hairdresser for a trim (I have long hair which I straighten or tie up -dependant on my mood). Even less regularly, maybe once every 18 months, I visit a hairdresser to have bleach slashed through. On all other occasions, I buy hair colourant and apply myself. Due to the previous bleaching, the colourant comes out different shades and I love it. In fact, I'm often complimented on my hair colour . So, my question is, why do hairdressers have to roll their eyes and tut when they realise a client has been doing something to their own hair? I'm sick of it - it's like going to the blinking dentist and being told off for eating too many sweets. If I ruin my hair, that's my tough luck - and it'll grow back, so it's hardly the end of the world is it? I know how I want my hair so much more than any hairdresser does, so please just do what you're paid for and forget the comments - you're not going to get more business from that customer, you'll simply drive them away!

I know exactly what you mean... and i suffer from it on two counts: my haridresser is also my step mum, so she feels obliged and entitled to chastise me with both hats on..
So i'll regularly get " gosh, you;ve not had your hair done for ages have you, it looks awful!", or "what have you done, thats terrible"!
The saving grace is that i get cheap hairdo's and she doesnt mean anything nasty by it, it just comes out like that!
Lucky me eh!

Dont think many HDs would miss you if you only call once in 18months.
