Today a friend of mine cheated on her hairdresser. It just kind of happened. She won a free haircut at a chic new salon during a fundraiser. She thought it would be harmless, but now the guilt is killing her. She has no intentions of leaving the hairdresser she's been with through thick and thin for such a long time, the one who knows her every follicle.
This started me thinking about the proper etiquette for switching hairdressers. How do you handle such a breakup? Just disappear without making another appointment, no more contact? Do you dare to be honest that the relationship has run it's course? Or do you risk running into them somewhere with your new stylist's creation on your head, never telling them that you've been unhappy with them for quite some time?
Years ago, I had a hairstylist who, in spite of my pleas, insisted on giving me an old lady helmet head every time I went in for a haircut. I would actually leave there hoping no one would see me on the street and hurry home to wash it and re-do it myself. How bad is that? Know how I finally ended that relationship - I moved to another town!
