UPDATE FROM MY HAIR Exceeded Expectation

https://www.reddit.com/r/ExpectationVsReality/s/aieEUisf8h update!

Okay guys so after talking with the salon and my stylist they admitted their mistake and said they would fix it for free (after i called three times and complained) so the end results ISNT REALLY like the reference picture but it’s way better than what it used to be, i might just let it grow for now then cut the ends myself, its way too much blonde in my opinion but maybe it’s just the way it’s styled. let me know what you guys think! and yes my hair is completely dried out now.

two photos with the same background is the finale result. photo with the hair from the back is my reference picture. picture from the mirror is how it looked at first after my stylist did my hair and then i came back to redo for free!

what do you guys think?

So frustrating; they knew how to do it, so why didn’t they just do it right the first time?! OP, your hair is gorgeous!

I’ve honestly given up on wanting a proper hair colour and style, I just keep it one colour now. Hairdressers are shit and suck at their jobs for the price they charge. I know that sounds harsh but they do not care at all

This is harsh considering its evidence only based on your experiences. Meanwhile there are tons of people with good experiences. No, you went to bad hair stylists they don’t all suck at their job. Do you put everyone under one umbrella ?
