Had this very bad experiance at this particular hair salon around my place. I wanted to colour my hair as the roots were already showing and I have a wedding to attend this weekend. Being lazy, I decided to try the neighbourhood salons to see if they are good. If they are able to do a decent job I will go there in the future. I was in for a disappointment.
I went to do my survey in the neighbourhood and decided to try out this particular salon (not going to name the salon here but if you wish to know... do ask me) as they were having promotions. Colour, cut and treatment for just $58.80. In the mist of the job, they told me that I have to pay $10 more as my hair is long and thick. Ok, this is still acceptable to me. They promoted another treatment for me which was a Spa treatment for both the sclap and hair. Since I had not done any treatment since June and had done perm and colour, I decide to go for it and to pay additional for it. I told them that I needed a trimmed too since I had not cut my hair for more than 3 months. When the bill came, I had to pay for the hair cut. Usually the salons I go to do not charge me for the hair cut whenever I do chemcial treaments. Although the cut was just $2.80, I felt that since I had spent that much already, they should not charge me for it.
This was also the first time that I had walked out of the salon with my hair partially dry. They did not dry my hair sufficiently. I understand that they had a lot of customers today however all the other salons also had quite a no. of customers but they still do their job perfectly.
My t-shirt was also destroyed! The neckline of the t-shirt which I was wearing was tainted with the hair dye. That is too much. I did not realise this till I reached home and changed out of my t-shirt. I have long hair for such a long period of time and never, never when I dyed my hair the neckline of my t-shirt was tainted.
While showing off my newly coloured hair to my husband, he told me that the white hairs are still visible! Yes I have white hairs... hahaha... I had told them that I have white hairs which I will like to cover and they had ensured me that it will be covered.
I will either go to the salon which I had my hair permed previously or the salon at Bedok Central. I had thought that I will be going back there to perm my hair but I saw that customers who had their hair permed there did not have as nice perms compared to my. Will definately not go there for perms.
