I had the unpleasant experience of losing a potential client today, through no fault of my own. Backstory: I had been contacted by her months ago, she had made an appt but ended up cancelling a few days before. She said she would reschedule, but didn't. A month goes by and this time she could not wait for me, a color expert with a decade of professional experience, to remove the color from her hair. She let her cousin in beauty school put bleach on it, she suffered scalp burn, and ๐บ๐ฆ๐ด๐ต๐ฆ๐ณ๐ฅ๐ข๐บ asked me for an emergency appointment ๐ต๐ฐ๐ฅ๐ข๐บ. ๐ฅ
I understand how scary that is, which is why I rearranged my day to fit her in even though I would not normally do this for someone I had not yet met. (and this is ๐ฌ๐๐ฎ I don't) ๐ค
๐ฐ 40 minutes before her appointment, she cancels because she "put oil on it and it melted off" supposedly ๐ฅ As per my cancellation policy, I still had to charge her for the appointment.๐ฒ

There is a reason I have a cancellation policy, too. My time isn't free and deserves to be respected, especially when I fit you in for an "emergency."

99% percent of haircolor emergencies I deal with are due to people being impatient and not wanting to spend money. That is the deadliest combination for your hair. If you just wanna put pink manic panic in your hair, then knock yourself out. But, once you start dealing with bleach and color removal [ #correctivecolor ] it's best to hire someone who knows what they're doing, who has done it before. Don't give your cousin in training the chance to mess it up if you are really that attached to your hair, and definitely #DontDIY โ
