I had to share this story, because I wish in real life I could've gloated.
Almost two years ago I went to a salon to take my hair back to blonde (I had dyed it dark brown). Yes, I shouldn't have done it. I know. Well, they were able to get rid of the dye after bleaching my hair twice and using toners and whatnot. It was a long, long appointment. A fellow hairdresser, with flaming red hair, walked by and started lecturing me on how red tones are impossible to remove from hair. She started yelling, "Never dye your hair with a hint of red unless you're willing to keep it until you're 90!" I thought that was a bit much and she was really rude.
Last week when I went to get my hair cut I happened to see this same hairdresser-with bleached-blonde hair! My mouth dropped open. Here I got a 15-minute lecture, and she clearly got rid of all her red tones. I mentioned the story to my stylist and she whispered, "--- is a good stylist, but she scares the crap out of everyone! I rarely hear her praise anything that isn't her own work." :rolleyes:
Just goes to show that even hair professionals don't always tell the truth!
