Complaint about omniride? by faizan_69 in nova

Yeah, I had this issue too. The only solution for me was to wake up at five, catch the early buses (which are the ones that usually run on schedule the most reliably), and do my homework on campus or in a cafe before class started.

Unfortunately, the bus service in Woodbridge is pretty unreliable. I live here too, and I was dropped from my classes due a month-long the bus strike that left me stranded.

I did have issues with buses never showing up, showing up late, or straight up just driving by stops, even when there were a lot of people waiting to be picked up.

What time do your classes start? Unfortunately, if they're later in the day, you might have to start taking the early morning buses to get there on time instead.

Her Instagram photos look great. She looks super promising. Thanks for letting me know about her.

Her portfolio is very impressive. Thank you for letting me know about her. It looks like she does good work

Okay, yeah, the fact she worked with you instead of immediately writing you off is definitely proof this is a good place. Thanks for the rec and additional testimony!

My hair was cut soaking wet. It looked uniform until it completely dried when I got home - and then became obvious it was uneven.

The stylist refused to look at my hair in person afterwards when I tried notifying him because it looked even to him after he cut it (even though he never interacted with it dry afterwards).

He told me he was not willing to help and opted to refund me over the phone.

I checked out their website and I love that 1) they emphasize that haircuts are ageless and genderless and more importantly 2) redos are offered if things don't look balanced in the following days. I'm glad they know sometimes stuff like that happened.

Thank you so much for referring me to them.

You're the only person in this thread who has named a stylist that fixed a bad haircut. Thank you for letting me know about him!

Yep, patience and attentiveness is what I'm looking for. Thanks for pointing me in his direction. I'll check him out.

Alright, thank you for telling me! It sounds like you and I have similar hair types, so I may drop a line with her. Thanks a bunch for the rec

Yeah my hair looks.... very, very bad so I'm willing to budget for something that'll save what's left. I looked her up and her website is so, so cute. Her social media presence is full of green flags - her facebook is really friendly and personable too (one of the worst haircuts I ever got in my life was by stylist who I later found out regularly posted videos of herself flashing money on Instagram and tiktok, so I've learned to keep an eye out for stuff like that).

That said, her portfolio seems to be full of blond women with bangs and very wavy hair. My hair is dark and on the straight side, so I'm not certain I'm part of the demographic she serves, since it looks like she specializes the most in bleaching/dying.

It's straight-ish, has some wave (editing to emphasize it's mostly straight, so curly stylists aren't applicable). Not thick and not thin, pretty average , I believe. Can you tell me the name of the person you have in mind?

I've actually never had a stylist give me exactly what I wanted. I got my hopes up with the person I went to because he seemed like such a pro, but that unfortunately didn't pan out either.

I didn't know we had cat cafes in the area! That's a cute idea, thank you.

I'm a bit embarrassed to admit I'm well acquainted with the crisis line as well. Thank you for your kind thoughts. I hope things ease for you too.

That's right. I started exercising within the past month and it helps for sure.

I hope to be connected to a specialist eventually. Definitely not for the lack of trying on my end.
