“I had someone reschedule their color because she was outside smoking a cigarette before bed, and a bat dive bombed her, got caught in her hair, and scratched her. She had to get rabies shots and rescheduled due to the open head wound. Absolutely wild.”

"While this is actually a great way to test if hair is natural or synthetic, the smart thing to do, of course, is to snip off a hair or two and then burn it. But no, this bonehead actually tried it while the hair was still attached to his wife's head. Long story short, her head went up in flames, and she tried to sue us for medical expenses. It didn't even make it to the courtroom because the judge promptly tossed it out after reading the plaintiff's complaint."

"So she calmly stood up and told the mother that her daughter had a severe case of head lice. The mom said, 'Oh yeah, I was gonna see if you could do something about that too.' My hairdresser calmly explained that she couldn’t handle lice cases and that she now had to shut her shop down for the rest of the day to sterilize everything. Then the mom had the gall to say, 'But you can still cut her hair, right? Since you need to shut down anyway?'"

"I also got the bottom part of my ear clipped by my mom when I was young. Both ears look completely normal, but you know how some people have attached ears, and some don't? Well, I have both."

"I didn’t know how to respond. I’m sure she knew a stranger was standing there, not to mention her mom! But we were the people she needed to tell that to. Her mom laughed and said, 'Oh, honey, it’s nothing to write home about, don’t get your hopes up.' I just did the rest of the service in shock."

"She then pointed the knife right at me and told me that if she didn’t like her hair, I would end up just like the apple she was eating. I told management, and they still made me finish the service AND book her another appointment for maintenance. She would show up and just stare from time to time. Management did nothing."

"The man walked back to his truck, and we watched him shuffle around in there for like five minutes. He walked back to the door, and by the time he got inside, this moron had put a WALMART BAG over his face and had the AUDACITY to walk back into the salon and say, 'Is this good enough for you? My face is covered, that should be good enough!' It took everything in me not to laugh in this man’s face. He walked out, without a haircut, and I hope he didn’t make a habit of using plastic bags as face masks."

"About six months later, I was working in a salon and saw her walking in through the front window. I went to hide in the back because I was honestly pretty terrified of her. They had to call the cops on her once because she was throwing blow dryers and flipping chairs over. My boss very promptly met her at the door to remind her that she wasn't welcome, and she ended up leaving before things got super heated. A few weeks later, I was at our local mall and saw her running out of the Master Cuts with color in her hair and her cape still on. I'm guessing she was trying to get out of paying for her service there, too. LOL."
