Hate my highlights

    I got my highlights done just under 2 weeks ago and I am so unhappy, my hair is really really dark and dull with a few blonde streaks now, it is usually a nice blonde, she said she was going to put a few low lights in it but she obviously over done it. Usually I love my hair. Should I go back or just live with it? I paid 70euro (student price). I thought I'd get used to it but I still hate it! It was the Saturday before Xmas so the Salon was really busy and I feel like it was a bit rushed, I am a bit apprehensive about ringing but I can't afford to get them re-done again straight away with my tight student budget.

    I would ring the stylist who did it and explain that the colour is too dark for you and would she mind adding a couple more hilites...much easier to rectify than if it was too bright!! if you dont get a good response from the stylist (don't go in guns blazing!!) I would ask to speak to the manager..ideally you should have said something on the day you got them done but if you leave it more than 2 weeks the salon will probably charge you again...

    Thanks for the reply, I really should have said it on the day because I hated it when she blow dried it, but they were crazy busy with the Xmas rush and she said it would lighten up after a few washes but it hasn't at all so I said I'd wait and see! I'm going to ring at 9 in the morning! and see what happens.

    Not your problem they were busy. You didn't get a reduction in price due to them being busy so why should you tolerate a reduction in service?

    I'd ring in and ask to speak to the manager and explain the situation. if they ask why you are only ringing now I;d advise them that the stylist told you it would lighten and it hasn't. You could suggest that you drop in to see the manager so they can asses your hair and see what they can do to fix it for you (at no extra cost).
