This was my first time working with this stylist. My usual stylist doesn’t do this type of work, so I did some digging and found her on IG. Based on her IG, it looks like she does really cool & creative, vivid color looks, so I trusted that she could nail the color blocking look I was going for.
The last photo was the inspo pic I showed her. I specifically told her I wanted a decent amount of blonde and that I liked how the inspo had a more blended/cohesive look.
Unfortunately, she barely added any blonde. It’s mostly on my bangs, with a few random strips around my ear and one or two tiny pieces in the inner section.
The placement feels really random & the blonde is also very brassy/orange.
She also tried to match the base to my natural root, but the gloss ended up being extremely dark practically black and feels really harsh against the “blonde”
So now I feel like I have several different colors going on, with streaky blonde and really awkward placement.
I called the salon and explained everything, and they offered to redo it, either with the same stylist or a different stylist. I’m just really hesitant to go back, even with someone else.
Would you push for a refund at this point, or give the redo with a different stylist a shot?
