EDIT: I went back to have my fringe fixed up, and Emma was so lovely and accommodating. We talked through what I wanted and she managed to make me love my fringe again!!

Usually I leave this hairdresser feeling refreshed and relaxed. However yesterday I got my first head of foils and had a trim on my hair and fringe for my birthday this weekend. I left feeling very deflated and feeling like I was going to burst into tears. I’m a bit of a perfectionist so I know sometimes I can be a little hard on how the haircut went, but this time every time I looked at myself in the mirror I wanted to cry. The hairdresser didn’t ask how I style my fringe and just started cutting straight across (not how I have it styled normally). I mentioned this fact later for which she apologised, but I was still charged full price even though I was unhappy with it (over $400). I was also there for almost 5 hours. I feel like I don’t look like myself and am upset that this is the hair I will have for my birthday. The foils they did turned out well, a couple pieces of hair look white rather than blonde but other than that I’m happy with it. Like I said, I’m a bit of a perfectionist, but I am truly unhappy with my fringe.

Approximate cost: $400
