How do you tell your hairdresser you hate the color?
“Tell your colorist in a calm way that you are unhappy with how the look turned out, and he or she will be understanding,” Hazan says. Try to explain exactly what you don’t like about the color. Is it too dark all over? Is the tone of the color too warm or too cool?
What comes first color or cut?
If that’s not an option — for example, if you already have a stylist and colorist you love, and they work out of different salons — always opt to get your hair cut first, then bleached, dyed, or highlighted (preferably, within a few days of each other). As Thompson says, “The cut’s going to make the color.”
What happens when you go to another salon for a haircut?
Just going to another salon not only costs you the price of yet another haircut or color, but there’s no guarantee the next haircut will be any better than the last. Give the look a chance to grow on you. “Your hair goes into shock. And so do people – we don’t like change,” said Cohen.
Should you switch hair stylists when your hair color goes bad?
When you go elsewhere, be prepared to pay. A new stylist will treat the appointment as a new color, not a color correction. If it’s a complete redo, Hazan says it’ll be worth it to get the issue fixed properly. “Or, if you want to switch stylists at the same salon, that’s fine too—it’s your hair and your money,” she says.
Can I Tell my Hairdresser I don’t like my hair color?
Sure, but the alternative of living with a hair color you hate isn’t much better. “Tell your colorist in a calm way that you are unhappy with how the look turned out, and he or she will be understanding,” Hazan says. Try to explain exactly what you don’t like about the color.
Should you avoid these hair color mistakes at hair salons?
Make the most of your investment and avoid these hair color mistake s that could completely wreck your hair and your wallet. But be wary of hair salons that offer deals all the time. That’s not a good sign, and think twice before you buy these things from Groupon.
