If a woman of another race does your hair, and ruins it.......?

Am I racist if I say please do not ever do another ethnics group hair EVER again if you do not know how.....I lost 4 inches of my hair and it was turned orange...I was accused of having bad ethics by the salon owner when I said what is written up above. I later called the licensing board and found out the woman who ruined my hair has an expired license...I was cussed out when I told her on the phone that I knew and wanted $ back...

Hopefully you reported her and the shop to the licensing board. Not for messing up your hair, but for working w/o a license.

I would also file a report to the Better Business Bureau.

You aren't a racist unless you associated her race to her skill level. Associating your own race with particular hair care needs is simply acknowledging that you have needs that were not met.

If they were professional you should have been able to assume that they would either know how to do your hair, OR they would state that they did not before they did anything.

Racist, I don't know, stupid yes, you didn't ask to see if she was a colour specialist. And if you felt uncomfortable with her, you should have stopped her then. Don't ever pay for something you don't like. and after you found out her license had expired, take her to small claims court. Report It

I don't understand why race has anything to do with it. A lady messed up your hair... it doesnt matter if the lady was black or white, latino or indian, does it?

Maybe by bringing up that it was another race you are infering something racist

i personally am a fan of orange hair mine is right now, but you may not be so if she ruined your hair to that extent take a fefw pics of it incase this gets ugly, go bac and tell them you want your $ back if they refuse try 1 more time and if they are still refusingtell them u will see them in court, ost likely they will pay up if not take them to court, and not because its all about te money because if this person does not have a license to do hair then they should not have a job doing it and this will prolly happen to someother person adn as pissed as i am sure you are about all this you shouldput a stop to it now and not allow it to happen again. and no it does not make you a racis to make a coment like that if it was worded rght, it all dependson how you said it. good luck

I understand where you are coming from in the sense that the physical differences between say African American hair and Caucasion hair are so great that if someone had never worked with one or the other it could truly be disasterous. However, it's unfair to disqualify all hair dressers of other race simply due to one bad experience. Simply asking the hairdresser how much experience he/she has working with your particular type of hair seems like a much better way to go about it.

We're talkin' hair here...... just hair.

Honestly, you gotta get your priorities in order. If you're going to take on a whole race, the least you could do is focus on something a little more controversial.

My God......hair?

I've been going to hairdressers for over 50 years, and I still feel guilty when occasionally I've had to decline the services of a black person. I have fine, fly-away hair, which requires a certain skill and experience for it to look OK.

Having said that, the best highlights I've ever had were the work of a 7-foot, booted, dreadlocked Rasta in London! Never found him again, unfortunately.
