Our hair stylist (Katie) completely chopped our child’s hair. She had excuses for what she did, but she never explained anything or asked questions. In fact, she said “I think I know what we want to do” when we started. I should’ve trusted my gut right then that she would ruin his hair. We requested a trim of curly hair and tapered sides, while asking she leave the top length alone except to give the hair a short trim for health. She chopped it all from a beautiful head of curly hair to a short straight cut. Curls lost. Disastrous. Never again. STYLIST TIP: If you can’t do it, say so and pass it on to someone who can, or at least ask questions and explain what you’ll need to do so people know before they’re looking at all their hair on the ground.
