Things that happened at my haircut today

1. My (new) stylist (that I’m testing out) was 5 minutes late to my appointment.
2. She didn’t introduce herself.
3. She flat-ironed my hair before cutting it.
4. The flat-iron process pulled my hair a lot.
5. It proceeds from this that she cut it dry.
6. She spent most of my haircut talking to the other people in the salon as though I wasn’t really there.
7. I tipped 30% less than my usual tip on a haircut, and less than 20% which is basically unheard of for me in any tipping situation.

Needless to say, I am still on the hunt for a stylist. I weed out new stylists when they ask to cut my hair dry. And flat-ironing it first when all I want is a trim and a little bit of shape for my curly hair? Please. I am upset enough about my haircut that it might warrant a call to the salon.
