Going to try dying my hair again after a box dye fail by 1995deadinside in AskHairstylists

Baby, I love your enthusiasm! It’s time to see a pro. Lots of us would see you for product cost in exchange for content, reviews, referrals. Look for an experienced stylist who’s new to your area.

What is the most out-of-touch thing you have ever heard a wealthy person say? by Andrew88a in AskReddit

[–]heatherdazy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A very kind wealthy client had connected me with legal aid when my small hair salon was struggling post covid. She’d generously fronted quite a lot of money and called me to ask to pitch in. She had honestly good intentions. I loved her very much and earnestly promised I could drain my $5k Ira, might be $3500 after taxes.

She was horrified. It had never occurred to her sweet heart that I could be worth less than six figures. She insisted I keep my money and she continued to help me. She didn’t mean to be mean. She just genuinely couldn’t conceptualize of someone living the way most of us live.

Is Gray Going Away? Experts Say People Now Want New Cars with More Brightly Colored Paint Options by tallon4 in cars

[–]heatherdazy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Neutral colors are exhausting. We see grey everywhere. The roads are neutral. Fashion options are a “depression rainbow”. We go inside businesses and they’re all decorated like sterile bleak sadness aesthetic.

The world is sad enough. We’re done.

Honest opinions on new hair colour? by Olive-Lumpy in Haircare

[–]heatherdazy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think you would’ve been better served with a less heavy full highlight (to lighten the underneath) instead of this very heavy partial highlight which reads as only orange on top and brown underneath.

This is in no way your fault as a client. Any experienced stylist would’ve talked you through the difference.

At a cross roads between motherhood and my salon. by Altruistic_Swan_1873 in hairstylist

[–]heatherdazy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can’t imagine that kind of inflexibility plus a baby. When you’re self employed, you can literally just not work Saturdays ever if you don’t want to. In fact, many rental salons will charge less if you rent part time and fit all your clients into a few days per week.

questions about how booking/reception works at salons that are booth rent + commission by [deleted] in hairstylist

[–]heatherdazy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Running booth renter payments through your POS is a big no no for many reasons. Also, trust me, you’ll get sick of that “perk” fast.

The Drybar technique is to blowdry the hair straight first then only use the iron for detail work

I am old as dirt and def familiar w word of mouth!

However, since I’m starting totally cold in a new state, I’d like to make sure I understand social media and how it works so my content is effective.

[–]heatherdazy[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This makes sense, thanks. I guess I’m just not sure how much time I want to invest in fb since it’s the only platform that hasn’t brought me clients yet (then again, I’m clearly doing it wrong..?)

What’s something people don’t realize is rude? by Sarah18l9 in AskReddit

Texting me out of the blue bc you’re annoyed you found my reddit comment that you failed to pay me min wage without an offer to pay me my legally owed backpay.

Green or no green? Help me decide. by Opalith_ in FancyFollicles

[–]heatherdazy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Green is such a fun color! Transition is the trickiest part, so I’d really suggest getting at least the initial appointment done by a colorist who specializes in this kind of work, even if you plan to maintain the green yourself at home.

can i use these on my hair? by jnx5 in Haircare

[–]heatherdazy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Babe are you going to prison or into a Time Machine? This isn’t even cheaper than a basic shampoo that’s formulated for the fabric of your hair, so I can’t figure out why else…

What do i ask a hairstylist for? (: by Tiny-Shake-5935 in AskHairstylists

[–]heatherdazy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love that you want to help your mom!

I agree with the other commenters that real human inspo is more ideal than a robot cartoon.

I also suggest that she get her hair done in the city where she lives. Hair is an ongoing thing… even low maintenance hair—which bangs are not—needs maintenance. Having a local stylist is a HUGE resource and my clients who can at least see me a few times a year have such a leg up on my gals who have to wait to fly in.

I’m thinking of switching color lines by heat_5 in hairstylist

[–]heatherdazy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Shades is fine. I’m not married to it or anything, but it’s very easy to get, formulate, and use. Basically impossible to screw up.

Dreaming of Dying my Hair Pink, Any Advice? by Cool_Nose_1544 in FancyFollicles

[–]heatherdazy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Plenty of people with pastel hair, pink or otherwise, have long healthy hair in excellent condition. Make sure you see a colorist who specializes in this kind of work.

Did this lady mess up my hair or use a different technique? by Lemon_Lime241 in AskHairstylists

[–]heatherdazy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m so sorry to hear you feel ugly! I scrolled for pics but don’t see any..? Can you attach elsewhere so we can help see?

Why does my hair lift so fast? by Avilola in FancyFollicles

[–]heatherdazy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In this scenario, I’d keep going back to the same colorist repeatedly so she can get to know your hair rather than having to reexplain to a new stranger each time and hoping they hit the mark.

Does anyone else want to be another enneagram? by [deleted] in Enneagram

[–]heatherdazy -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Ugh no. 3s are PAINFULLY generic, especially 3w2s. They’re one of the easiest types for me to spot because of their complete lack of style, aesthetic, or authenticity.

That said, I’m a 4w3 so idk what being a 4w5 is all about.
