“Literally Cried In The Salon”: 54 Beauty Disasters That Feel Almost Criminal

This was the absolute WORST haircut of my life! One year later and I still see him advertising on Groupon. How?! Why?! I wish I could warn future customers!

Basically I got my eyebrows nanobladed and once everything had flaked off they looked like this (note the blow out on the front left brow and the overall uneven distribution of ink everywhere).

After these issues were initially brought to my attention by reddit, i reached out to a few five star artists in my area for their expert opinion. needless to say they agreed with ya’ll.

The next thing i decided to do was reach out to the owner of the salon i went to, who i was initially seeking a refund from. She told me to come in so she could take a look at them, and when i did, her mouth dropped. Despite the fact that the woman who did my eyebrows is literally employed under her, she straight up told me they were absolutely horrible and apologized profusely. She said she’d never seen her produce work like that, which based on her instagram i agreed with but who knows. Long story short, she told me that she would not let that woman ever touch my face again.

I'm someone who very rarely cries. It takes alot for me to crack but this... had me on the verge of tears. It has been 1 month since my last bleach (which I do myself). This time I went to a salon because I decided I was fed up with doing it on my own and I wanted a professional to see if they could correct it as I had let me regrowth grow too long (about 5 - 6 inches. The colorist did my roots first. Then he did my midshafts. 10 volume at my roots and 20 volume at midshafts. He put me under heat which was so hot to the point it was burning the top of my head. It processed for a whole of 1 hr. When he finally washed it out he burnt my head twice with the water. He then proceeded to put tonne of shampoo to wash it out. When it came to dry my hair he was so rough with my hair while it was soaking wet. He first took a comb to it to part my hair, I could already see partially of what you see in the photo but I thought it was just a tiny piece and didn't think much of it. When he put down the comb there was a huge chunk of my hair in it. He proceeded to give me a blow out and continued to burn my head from keeping it in 1 spot for too long.

The whole thing cost 160 plus tax and even after all that I still gave him a $15 tip. Oh Nd I forgot to day I heard him take a photo while he was washing my hair. Also while I was under the heat he had his phone in his hand doing something behind me and stepped beside me for a second and had the camera pointed right beside my face. Again I thought that was odd but didn't pay any mind until I heard him take the photo while washing my hair. This made me suspicious that he was filming me.

I've never been in a position such as this one before where a service has been totally botched. What should I do ? Do I ask for my money back ? I thought about leaving the nastiest 1 star review but where would that get me in terms of trying to get my money back.

I got these put in a week ago and this is what they look like. I went to a different person to get them taken out and she said it was some of the worst Work that she’s ever seen. My mom and friends were shocked when they saw it. I talked to the manager of the salon where I got them done and he said that it’s perfectly normal and that they’ll redo it if they want, but I’m not gonna get a refund. I don’t really wanna get it redone because I’m afraid they’ll just mess it up again But I don’t think I’m gonna be getting a refund so I don’t know what to do. This was $900.

Got microblading today. I cried all day but it looks so uneven to me? Am I freaking out too early and just not use to having eyebrows? I know they are definitely not symmetrical.

Asked for a short bob and got this.

Someone please agree with me that this is NOT a balayage. or a botched balayage? idk but not what I asked for and I haven’t stopped crying. Yes it’s hair, yes it will grow back but I didn’t touch my hair for TWO years wanting to keep it healthy, then thought it’s time for a refresh. Now I’m left with what looks like grown out hair. And to make things worse, I already went back and had her touch up the peekaboo she did by my ears because those were blotchy and uneven lines. Idk what to do anymore. $400 down the drain.

I got my nails done, and they turned out like this… I’m not comfortable with them and they’re making me feel really insecure. I paid €45 for them—it would’ve been cheaper to just buy press-on nails and apply them myself. I’m so disappointed…

I got my nails done for my engagement photos. Paid $55 for this. Should I just take them off?

I got cO2 fractional laser done to address lines/texture/pigmentation. I have recently lost 75kg post gastric sleeve surgery. I recently just got the confidence to be social, but the lines on my neck from having a large double chin and mild acanthosis nigricans really bothered me - which is why i got the treatment. She apparently used a setting that my skin tone could handle. It has been over a month now and I have dark grid marks all over my neck. I just wish I never done it in the first place but there is no going back now. I understand its not always safe for brown skin, but she reassured me it was fine and an appropriate setting would be used. Also, she was the cheapest. Its obviously a botched procedure. It looks like post inflammatory hyperpigmentation as she has said and another dermatologist has advised.

The part that is mildly infuriating is that she didn’t even let me know she gave me a bald spot someone else had to tell me.

I got my eyebrows done. I researched and this lady has good pictures and reviews on her page. I specifically told her I want nano brows as natural as possible nothing solid that looks like a permanent marker was used to draw it. I'm shocked when I saw it. My husband was doubly shocked. I look like an angry bird.

$140 and they told me it was "impossible" to get the dye of my neck, forehead and ears (without even trying) and it would come off "eventually". I have a major event in a few days and I am busy scrubbing my head raw tonight.

The lady passed out on top of her in her home studio. My wife had to carefully get her to the floor and called 911. EMS brought the lady to the hospital and we are all hoping she is okay.

Guess I’ll find one of my ball caps for a couple weeks.

Check out that forehead line. Lashes coming off. My hair fell flat and frizzed.

Worried I need to force fade immediately if I have any hope of avoiding these severe (and lopsided?) overdone brows. I’m aware the microblading process is a rollercoaster straight out of the gate, but this result has me sick to my stomach. The hair strokes seem too dense, like one solid block.

After a chop and a plethora hair masks there's now a curl pattern! Unfortunately, it's still terribly frizzy and the curls are irregular. Wanting to do a keratin blowout to smooth it out. Would that be feasible?

Went to a new hair stylist today for a partial highlight and trim to refresh a 6 month old balayage and ended up with this…. She tried to fix it with a root tap, but obviously that didn’t work.

And this is how she did my lips. And foundation. She was also rude and super expensive for a test.

There was a clear language barrier as I am in Italy and not fluent in Italian. It’s so high and so tight, I’m not sure what I can do to fix and not embarrass my best friend. Any suggestions?
