    What can I do to KEEP my hair straight?

    Disclaimer: I'm not a hairdresser either, just a huge fan of all things hair-related. Aside from what has been said, I found that the "wrapping" technique that a lot of women with "ethnic" hair tend to use works really well. What you do is wrap your hair around your head (over night) and wear a...

    Professional Hair Stylists--this one is for you ;)

    Thanks Minky! I suppose I can pop in for a consultation elsewhere just to see what they say. I take it you get the general impression that she can't/won't be able to fix it then?

    invited to mingle with hairdressing clients, help!

    I totally understand how you feel about being afraid to come off like a cheap salesperson. I just wanted to let you know that from a client's standpoint, unless you start trying to sell right away, it's perfectly acceptable. The promotional free massage sounds good too.

    Professional Hair Stylists--this one is for you ;)

    Thing is, I did/do just that. I *always* bring pictures of what I'm looking for (I don't know the correct terminology so I'm certain I couldn't explain without visuals otherwise). And while I think I'm being clear, I assume that's not the case (either that or she isn't listening) because I...

The key is to pretend that you are amongst girlfriends rather than seeing them as potential...

I have a lot of respect for her (as well as other stylists) and always show my appreciation with generous tips so money isn't the problem here. I'm mostly afraid of a) getting another sub-par color and b) being...

    Professional Hair Stylists--this one is for you ;)

    My current colorist is really talented but I don't think she understands me. She's colored my hair a total of three times and the first time was wonderful but the second two times were a bit more "creative" than what I was after (too platinum of a blonde and this last time, I requested...

    Color help (please)

    I have found this website by some strange miracle but am SO glad I did. There seem to be a lot of knowledgeable hair professionals here and I was hoping you could help me out. I have had some BAD luck with her professionals lately. First, I went into a salon for some lowlights on my level 10...
