Iranoladun: @topic

SO many, let me list the major ones:
1. Using very dirty towels that look like rags
2. Using the same combs for so many customer hair without sterilization
3. Hanging the comb they are using for my hair in their own hair or using my comb to scratch their hair
4. Gisting/gossiping while doing my hair
5. Scrubbing my hair like jeans when washing
6. Telling me that I should tell them to come and wash the relaxer out of my hair only when my scalp is 'burning' and not following the prescribed timing
7. Combing and plastering my hair with relaxer (both new growth and old relaxed hair)
8. Using Shea butter on my hair without asking me if I want it or not (I cannt stand Shea butter smell)
9. Pulling my hair/head when they want a particular position instead of asking me
10. Putting me under the dryer and forgetting until I have to shout/look for the Stylist
11. Practically begging for a Stylist to wash my hair/weave my hair in preparation for fixing of weaveon(my reason for Divorcing Downtown Salon)
12. Begging and expecting a tip without offering me a delightful service
No 1-12,I agree with u on all but another thing u must reconsider,shear butter is good for the hair especially wit our so dry and harsh weather.best done every once in a month and u deep condition afterwards.shear butter comes in two types.the very raw ones which smells a lot and the already treated ones which looks clearer in colour.best done before ur hair is washed,apply,dnt comb,wrap up,tape around ur hair line cos it will surely when u sit under d hair dryer which is compulsory u do,temperature 25-35degrees,15-20 mins max is enough to sit wit it afterwards wash ur hair with a proper shampoo 3times,rinse thouroughly and apply ur deep conditioner and cover wit a plastic cap and sit under d hair steamer for another 25-30mins nd rinse nd style.ur hair is as good as a brazillian weave.another issue wit nigerian stylist is they make use of too much hair oil thereby making d hair limp once u sweat a little or b,4 u even walk out d salon.our weather is hot,we need less oil for our hair though it's important we apply once a day.if u have ur weave on or braids,there are some leave in conditioners sprays u can use to keep ur scalp moist,dandruff free and ur hair strenghtened too.men also need to oil their hair every once a day no matter how bald u are.lol

TheBBF: The thing that annoys me the most with my hair dresser is: When I bring a new treatment to try she does exactly what the instructions say not to do. Eg. Strengthening treatment says apply to hair and DO NOT COMB, rinse out after 10 minutes. Why does she then proceed to try and comb my hair? angry. She will now argue with me and say that the treatment "won't enter" if she doesn't comb it . you would think that the person who that wrote the instructions was daft. It drives me nuts how sometimes they just don't listen.
I'm a male stylist.I read all ur different stories about different hairdressers and I quite agree with u all.like u all said,d proffession has been negleted and abandoned in the hands of illiterates who doesn't even understand what the essence of the job is.I want to tell u that we are not the same every were.some or most of us are read but ds has been a part of us for quite a long time so letting it go it's difficult.I love to make hair and I have been doing that since age 7yrs old.I've worked in various salons also and I know the way things are done.most of these problems are associated with the local salons.some big salons too are guilty of it.for more about me,u can mail me back on odukanaakanodukana@yahoo.com.hope to hear from u
