I wanted my hair like a white/platinum color. The stylist was able to only get it to a brass shade. (I started with a brownish blonde). A few days later, I went back, stating this wasn't the color I wanted. She put toner in my hair at no cost but stated she liked it the color it was (without the toner). It still wasn't the color of the pictures I showed her.
Before I had anything done, I asked the stylist if my hair would be damaged. She said it would be okay and it wouldn't all fall out. My hair was very healthy before I got it dyed. I would only notice a couple strands a day lost. Within two weeks, clumps were falling out. Three years later, my hair has not made a recovery. My natural color is all back, but my hair is dry and brittle and knotted. It feels as it did just after I dyed it.
All this cost $320. I did this before my wedding. I could've achieved exactly what the stylist did with a box dye for $12. I thought this place would be okay since it was a real salon. Wrong! Never again!
I'm praying the Lord will heal my hair and I thank Him for forgiving me on my vain decision and my poor use of money.
