I once went in for a French perm. My hair ended up looking like it was cut by a mental patient in the dark. I was quite distraught, and made the lady "fix it" but it still looked like shit.

my friends hair went in brown & came out morange

I once went to have a haircut. It wasn't meant to be anything drastic but as she snipped away she ended up cutting my hair into this awful short boy hair. I went in with hair that came down to my shoulder blades and walked out with hair that didn't even reach my chin. It was horrifying. I'm still scared of hairdressers. It took me 2 years to get my hair back to normal.

I remember precisely ONE horror story, because as she was taking care of my hair, I saw all black, and I'm not even joking, I was VERY close of getting up and leaving right there. It was last summer, she cut it WAY too short and bad, not flattering at all. my hair POUFFS and so it pouffed, and she couldn't iron it correctly, and i mean at that time i owned the SAME iron she was using on me, and she wanted to let me go like that shes like 'is this okay" i was like "well not really, I never saw my hair looking like that after a visit to the salon" im not a snobby costumer, but i mean i want a nice result, and she totally fucked it up. as i was staring at her doing my hair in the mirror I saw black, i wanted to disappear right there, she basically was complaining about her hand hurting as she was blowdrying. and shed be like "like this or that" and im like "well i usually wear it like this but what is your advice?" and shes like "well idont care it's your hair" she was SO rude, but she was telling me about her life and how she's going back to uni, and asking all those life oriented questions, but when id talk about the hair she made me feel SO insecure. i ended up telling her "yes it's ok" and i grabbed the straightening iron myself and ironed my own hair. i paid and went away. I never asked for my money back from the salon, so i never thought much, but i was very frustrated, i ended up cutting my own hair myself to equalize it, and then my friend convinced me to go ask for money back, they gave me a credit, i went to the spa that was affiliated with them and they did a way better job. blah

This happened like 9 years ago, but I'm still scarred by it. I went to a hair salon with a picture of what I wanted. I ended up getting what looked like a Prince Valiant haircut, only more butch. There was no way I could even make it look decent. I ended up wearing a lot of hats and scarves for about 6 months before it grew out enough so it looked nice.
