[@britttanyrose]

Thank you guys so much for all the supportive comments❤️ Let’s grow this hair together!!! Also, again this video was not intended to bash any stylist just sharing my experience with a service.

[@angelmz3346]

I'm so sorry for what happened But good luck in growing it back God bless kisses

[@memefaison6007]

Try going to "deeper than hair" next time. She's a great stylist! And, she records herself. That holds her accountable.

[@allthingsbyt384]

Girl you need to sew her and cut her hair off im so sorry to hear this 😢

[@sydney_jay]

I’ve been growing my hair out and refuse to let anybody else touch it! People just don’t care.

[@justagirl4627]

Omg yes! I just went to the salon and this lady soaked my hair and started ripping through it with the brush. Then she cut so many inches off. Idk anymore

[@DajiaStar]

Yup. I rather detangle and straighten my own hair. I only use to press my hair 1-3times a year. So im wearing my curls 97% of the time. But I wish I had help in styling it but I can’t pay someone $97-$120 to cause damage especially when I can teach myself how to do what I’m asking of my stylist. It’s the Trimming that catches up with me. I’m thinking of straightening it myself then going somewhere just for a trim.

[@Kodak718]

They really do not

[@michelleeja412]

Your a beautiful young lady. I want to encourage you to stop making excuses for a professional grown woman with alot of experience and expertise. She KNEW that you were young and inexperienced. Her actions were intentional and with knowledge. She just didn't care that she was breaking your hair. I was like you and didn't speak up even when I knew something wasn't right. Why? Because I didn't want to offend the offender or seem mean or unkind. Well I want to encourage you to utilize your voice even when you feel uncomfortable doing it. Eventually you will be comfortable speaking up for yourself. Trust your gut instinct and remove yourself from the situation. I cannot count how many times I physically removed a comb or blow dryer from the hand of a professional and walked the hell out of the salon.

[@relatablerealness973]

You are sooo correct Michelle! She did NOT know what she was doing! And this sweetheart is really giving the stylist an easy exit! We have to definitely speak up when the stylist is doing something that isn’t to our liking. I’m a total pain in the ass with any stylist and when i don’t feel good I’m really bad! Bcse then i start directing! I’ve had enough bad experiences! This was really unfair to brittany! Smh… I’m sooo nervous deciding on who to trust my natural hair with, so i just use my rev air and call it a day!

[@michelleeja412]

@@relatablerealness973 You absolutely 💯 correct. Some of these "professionals" are complacent and too comfortable and if I'm paying for a service which is quite expensive nowadays, I have no qualms in speaking up. Also I do my own hair because it's extremely hard to find someone I can trust

[@WildThing71]

You are so correct. Even at the schools , you get your hair done they are overseen by a teacher who is a professional stylist with many years under belt, with that said I had my hair done about eight years ago with students who over processed my hair caused my hair to fall out . I only had 6 of my 26 to 28 inch of hair left I was so mad. I started using this within 24 to 48 hr when I notice my hair started to fall out that what saved the remaining 6 inch of my hair if I waited any longer I might have had only 2 inches or less.

[@tatianaprettyy]

Well said. We definitely need more of this I wish I could repeat this to myself everyday I wake up

[@lifewithlatifah]

Its sad that as a black woman we all have stories like this one

[@britttanyrose]

Yes it’s unfortunate

[@rutho.6282]

Yea

[@tatianaprettyy]

Smh honestly it is a shame for us

[@rose44491]

Went to McDonalds after my terrible cut last fall balling my eyes out. That cashier made my day 😭🥺

[@gogochow7525]

Ladies, ALWAYS - Deep condition your hair at home the night before - get a deep conditioner treatment + steaming (if available) at the salon before getting a press. - don't be scared to detangle your own hair if the hairstylist is overwhelmed with your hair - if you feel that the hairstylist is STRUGGLING a lot, leave!!!!

[@britttanyrose]

Great tips!!!

[@kaylamugwara7411]

Omg as an African, American hair salons sound sooooo complex. Bookings, certain fees for trimming, conditioning etc. Anyways, this is so sad, that's why more and more women distrust salons and end up doing their own hair.

[@lalapooh3264]

African hair salons have their own quirks too. Especially when you're under 15 years old. Some stylists never did my hair the way I asked them when I was 11-14 because they said I was too young to choose. My mom would allow me to pick my hairstyle but my stylist would do something similar but different in the name of being age-appropriate. I finally ditched my hair stylist for a new one at 14 and I never had to deal with that anymore

[@NaturallyTayTay]

detangling fee? This is why I do my own hair lol

[@itssmeliz1262]

There were so much red flags at the beginning 😩 Ik it’s hard but ALWAYS speak up when it comes to your hair even if it’s being done by a “professional” cause at the end of the day you know more about how your hair texture way more then they do

[@softshell812]

Yup no!!!! I refuse to go to salons. My hair has been absolutely thriving with my own hands.

[@geninejackson3794]

Hey Brittany, I hate to hear that this happened to you. My mother has very long hair and experienced something similar. Unfortunately there are some hairstylists out there who will actually cut your hair out of laziness or plain jealousy of your length. Fortunately you are a hair growing pro so I’m sure you’ll be back to waist length in no time!

[@britttanyrose]

Thank you!

[@Butterfly-yk9bw]

💔💔its so sad

[@tasharoberts3875]

I always Detangle before I go to salon, but I don’t do salons anymore. I realized that we are the ones who actually care about our hair!!!

[@smeneses575]

Hi brittany! fan from tiktok here! Im not a hair expert and I'm still learning about hair and natural hair. I went to hair school for some time and have been doing research on natural hair for about 3 years now. I wanted to give some feedback and hopefully this will help if you ever end up going to a stylist again. (this is probably gonna be long but plz read all the way if you can

[@abriyahyasha-rahla2656]

Completely logical & very eloquent explanation, thank you ❣️

[@TheBarloboat]

A detangling fee??! These stylists are ridiculous...smh

[@ItsKeyBeauty]

I became a stylist bc of experiences like this. I’m sorry this happened and I know the feeling all too well. Stylist really do get scissor happy, it’s a real thing and I learned how bad it is in cosmetology school.

[@OrealeXO]

Where are you located if you don’t mind me asking?

[@diosnairibonilla6016]

I wish us all good luck in reaching our hair length goals! And don’t despair there are good stylists out there, you can definitely find one! And I completely get it, even if your hair is long is still sucks to have several inches of it removed. I did go to a stylist a while back and honestly I can’t complain even though she cut of like 3-4 inches, I know it was all damaged and split. I’m just happy I can start new with out all of the split ends. And no worries your hair will grow back!!! You got this!

[@britttanyrose]

Thank you!

[@jasiahvalentine3934]

I'm so sorry that you had to go through that 💕 but it'll get better and grow, and I know for sure that I'll be doing my protective styles and growing it with you, so you're not alone in this journey!

[@shariilamar2252]

I relate to this sooo much, I needed this video. Some stylist just don’t wanna deal with how thick your hair is and this is why I’m adamant on doing my own hair. The whole time she complained how this my 4c hair is and how if she had hair this thick she’s just perm it. SMH it’s sad but we live in a world right now where hair stylist no longer feel like they need to put in the hard and that perfectly fine cause as long as I got two hands I’m good💕 Wishing you the best hun😘

[@tashallashines714]

I'm sorry that happened to you. Bad hair stylist experiences have happened to me several times, yet still I rise!! I look at them as life lessons which has afforded me opportunities to learn from. Each time I've come back stronger, wiser and better as I purpose to keep moving onward and upward in life's journey with hair, relationships or otherwise. Keep up the good work Queen and continue walking in the blessings of the Lord!

[@Tendieluvv]

im soo sorry Brittany !! i would have cried too !!! for days maybe .. . looking forward to your new journey and yes please a challenge would be awesome ! *hugs

[@ladyjthecreativ4888]

Thank you so much for sharing! This is so encouraging!!! My hair used to be long like yours and my texture is similar. Did my own natural hair all my life. Finally went to a salon to get color and afterwards my hair started falling out. So yes I can feel your pain! I got locs right after because my hair was so short and I didn’t even want to deal with it anymore. I blamed myself a lot. It’s now 7 years later and I’m ready to cut it all off completely and start over on the natural hair care journey. So glad I found your channel. Love the honesty and the transparency! Looking forward to supporting your products. Keep growing sis! ✨💛💕

[@emilyoliver8021]

OMG Brittany!!! I know that she knew what she was doing, she just didn’t want to deal with it!!! It will grow back sure but that was unnecessary. Well sis I will be on the journey with you but I would still be crying!!!👀😱👋🏽❤️🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽

[@britttanyrose]

Thank you!

[@FineNaturalHairROCKS]

OMG, that's horrible. I'm so sorry that this happened to you. I pray that it will grow back super quickly for you. 🙏🏾

[@ItsRosieeJ]

A lady did that to me, literally cut 7 inches off , and another told me to alter my curls to make it easier to maintain then burnt my hair & leg a bald spot so I know your pain girl 😭 I’m glad I found someone who I can trust to do an actual trim and not a chop lol . Excited to see your new hair growth journey

[@user-rx9zl7iz4d]

SEVEN INCHES!!?? how is seven inches a trim 🤦🏾‍♀️

[@ItsRosieeJ]

@@user-rx9zl7iz4d Fr tho to this day I’m still wondering if that 7 inches was personal or not lol. she was so unprofessional 😭 she almost burnt my hair watching a movie on Netflix, was late, and disappeared while I was on the under the dryer to eat her food 😭😒 then got mad when I didn’t tip her

[@user-rx9zl7iz4d]

@@ItsRosieeJ sounds pretty personal to me!! it baffles me how some people will give out bad service then be surprised when you don’t tip them🤦🏾‍♀️ the audacity of some ppl! i’m convinced most of these “hairstylists “ don’t actually care for hair, they just want money

[@BeautyIn4C]

This is exactly what happened to me,I had about 16-17 inches of hair and the stylist was exactly like yours. It took her 6 hours to wash,heat stretch and flat twist,it was very painful and she ended up cutting 6 to 7 inches of hair. She actually said that she was not used to my type of hair and that half of it was damaged the moment I said that I have been taking care of it myself. There was so much tension and pain on my scalp and a didn't look at it for a while. I took the style down within 24 hours and washed it. I could not even do a ponytail after the visit. The ends felt way rough than they did before the visit. I am so sorry about your experience that and encourage you to keep taking care of it as you have always done and it will grow back for sure. Mine is growing back after the ordeal in August last year.. sending virtual hugs🥰🥰

[@Kneeyah]

This!!!! As soon as I said I’ve been taking care of my own hair for years the hairdresser done a slight chuckle and I assured her I do my trims regular in natural and stretched straight I’m not afraid to cut anything off.. I should have known 😭

[@HadjaBahOfficial]

Everything will be ok baby girl, your hair will grow. Don’t let the negative get to you 🥰

[@livgoode6362]

Find a hair stylist you trust and get trims every 3-4 months if needed.

[@naturalwoman8315]

I’m so sorry this happened to you Brittany. This is why I never go to a hair stylist. They seem to care more about time & money & less about the health of their client’s hair. She doesn’t sound like an experienced hair stylist. Your hair will grow back. Happy New Year to you. 🙏🏽

[@britttanyrose]

Thank you! Happy New Year!!

[@340VILadi340]

Your feelings about your hair is definitely valid. I would say I have fairy knots and I know I may have to get it cut because the same way you describe your hair is exactly how my hair is. I spend A LOT of time on my hair so I know exactly how you feel..

[@kokokay9734]

Omgsh this broke my heart for you! You are so sweet for not blasting her.

[@lauraannfranklin3612]

I could feel your pain while you were talking. Our hair is our crown, and when it's been messed with it affects us. I fully support your emotions, and that lady was wrong. I feel like she wasn't equipped to handle your hair in particular. Sometimes, hair stylist will "adjust" AKA cut your hair as a type of jealousy thing. Like you said, "Let's grow together." I'm sure there's a lesson in there somewhere. I just don't see it yet LOL.

[@BrokeButBeautiful]

Obviously she didn’t want to put in the work to do your hair 🤦🏽‍♀️ she should have detangled your hair in the washing process & she knew that .Don’t take accountability for her laziness sis.You can tell if hair is detangled the moment you look at the hair and touch it .I’m a cosmetologist and I know .That’s why I don’t do salons because they try to multitasked and rush and don’t pay attention .I would have went off! That’s so traumatizing , something similar happened to me but thank god I usually do my own hair, so I stopped the stylist & told her how to comb my hair, I had a little breakage because of the one tug she did before I stopped her ,NEVER AGAIN and I’m a stylist saying it 🤦🏽‍♀️I’m so sorry you went through that . 😩omg this stressed me out

[@angelasaunders6891]

when she kept saying it was thick that was a red flag

[@kiahrobinson7359]

Same basically happened to me, differently though. I got a sew in I want to say 5 years ago and when it was time for me to take it out, my stylist (cousin) said it looked like the other person who did my hair tried to cut my hair. It was bad to the point where I had to cut it into a bob😭. You got this boo! You’re still beautiful and your hair will grow back sooner than you think 💛

[@elleo6575]

I have always had the experience of black hairdressers being quick to cut my hair since I was a teenager. My hair always passed my bra strap, and the first question I would get was if I were Dominican because I had nice hair for my dark skin..Aside from being too quick to crop my hair, they would want to put a lot of product and heat in my hair. I had them roller set it every visit and finish the rest when I got home. I asked a friend of mine where she got her hair done, and she gave me the information for a Dominican hairdresser a block from where I lived. She was my hairdresser until I got married and relocated to Florida. I tried to visit her whenever I was back in NY.

[@kiayarenee54]

so sorry this happened to you. i went through a similar experience and i am so skeptical of who puts their hands in my hair because of it. idk why majority of these stylist are like this and uneducated about ALL textures. anyways you’re so gracious-you and your hair will be blessed for that! new year, new growth💕

[@lalegecreative7899]

Thank YOU for sharing your honest story. It provides so much value because it teaches us what not to do. Look, the silk press is a disappointment but it’s a learning process. Now we know. Let move on and growth that 4C hair baby!

[@cheyannnimmons9410]

I'm sorry u went through this. I stopped getting silk presses 5 years ago because they always make that excuse with me until I got a Dominican blow out. It's less hair damage, less pain and you'll have all your hair and it's good for people with natural hair💯

[@MiaOrtega1111]

Babygirl im so sorry that happened! At least you know how to grow it back. Thanks to your hair butter, my hair is getting longer. It's actually your length now. Hair twins!

[@krystal23100]

Nahhh this isn’t even my hair but I feel some type of way. Like that’s your hard work. And I feel like some people do that out of jealousy. And if she couldn’t do your hair she should’ve been honest or asked for help. That’s not right. But I can’t wait to see you on this new journey, praying for the best results girl. New year , new start.

[@feliciadunn644]

Sorry that this happened but you should let the stylist know how you feel. I’m so afraid to sit in a stylist chair cause I know they’re gonna cut my hair instead of trimming my hair. You’re so gorgeous and brave. Thank you for sharing this video. Happy New Year!

[@britttanyrose]

Don’t be afraid!! Hopefully u can learn from my experience😂

[@celestemyhand8969]

I am genuinely sorry to hear about your experience, but I’m looking forward to first-hand knowledge and watching you grow it back because I know you will be able to do so. Also only get your hair straight if you want it straight now because someone else think you should you’re still a beautiful person stay that way God bless you

[@britttanyrose]

Thank you so much!!

[@thecrownjewelerllc]

I'm sorry this has happened to you. For what you described it sounds like she didn't have much experience with hair like yours eventhough she's an influencer. I'm hear with you for the grow back tho. My hair is about bra strap length and I'm trying to get waist length. I am definitely interested in it being a challenge or just following your recommendations on your journey. You got this! ❤

[@cenairew3700]

I feel your pain and sorry this happened to you. I am confident your length will be back in no time. Please cheer up and let’s get started with regrowing your hair back in 2022.

[@britttanyrose]

Yes! Let’s grow this hair!!

[@maamearaba1058]

That’s very sad, but I know you’ll grow it back, we’re in this together 😘

[@JasmineM0601]

I totally understand and sorry this happened to you! I have had to re-grow my hair plenty of times. We as women value length and our hair is our crown. I know your hair was pretty healthy as well. But I’ve seen you say you only trim every 4-6 months. And you haven’t pressed in over 3 years. The ends of our hair are the oldest of course and they thin and split. From the picture that you inserted, you can see where it needs to be cut. I also always detangle prior to going to the salon as an extra precaution. You had 2 months worth of shed hair and didn’t detangle. It’s 50/50 in this situation in regards to accountability. Maybe (definitely) she should have told you that she couldn’t continue with the service at that particular time. And please don’t get me wrong, I love your content and you definitely have my support. I’ve even made your hair butter for myself and my daughter. I just wanted to comment natural to natural (every journey is different & I learn each time I have to revamp my journey😭)

[@abriyahyasha-rahla2656]

💯well said 👏🏾👏🏾❣️

[@sibylgarcia-santana3142]

When I first saw your pick on IG I was like oh my goodness what happened. I could see the pain of the experience on your face. I live in NYC and I have been to black owned business for silk press and a”Dominican spot” and you can so tell the difference. My head was killing me after the spanish spot and I refused to let her cut it because I knew she would say my ends were jacked and they aren’t but they are for them”. Please don’t ward off using heat every once and awhile to check your length. Not everyone is the same. Try to find an actual natural hair care stylist. I know up north they treat hair very differently. My hair is a lot like yours super curly in the middle. I often tell people I am like a chia pet my hair grows when you wet it. My hair is currently about 4 fingers from my waist and it has taken me years to get it there. Keep your head up mama you got this

[@FineNaturalHairROCKS]

Awww, I'm so sorry to hear that you've having such difficulties with your stylist. It sounds horrible. 😔

[@yvettecampbell3603]

And it doesn't look like a even cut!! This is one thing I hated by going to a salon, they wouldn't do as good as a job as i felt.

You told this story so well. So sorry for the trama but it's a lesson learn your hair is beautiful and will be back soon hon. New sub

[@carmon1592]

The first and last time i went to a hair salon. They pressed and baggered me to fat iron my hair....and to even do it for free after i said NO I ONLY WANT A WASH AND BLOW DRY. They kept begging and begging and trying to imtimidate me into giving in. My aunt was sitting out in the car waiting for me to get done, they even went outside to ask my aunt if it was ok to flat iron my hair after i told them no i didn't want it flat ironed MULTIPLE TIMES. They wanted to flat iron my hair just to see my "length". I swear BW with 4C hair, hair is ONLY considered beautiful and "good hair", when its past armpit length. Especially if you are a darkskinned BW with 4c hair, they will really try it.

[@jessymorel923]

Perioddd 💪🏽😤🥰 you looking so beautifuuullllll girllll HAPPY HOLIDAYSSSSSS ND NYEEE SISSSS

[@britttanyrose]

Thank you so much!!

[@ruth.monique]

Omg😱. So sorry you had to go through that. This is exactly why I am scared to go to a stylist. You pay your hard earned money for something you can mess up yourself. My advice is speak up👏🏾👏🏾!! It is your hair, you are the one in the chair. Speak up and not just let things go

[@itsmekiaratee]

Wowwwww! This is so unfortunate. I typically run from the best price but I live in Chicago, so I understand you thinking it was a good price for a smaller town/area. That makes sense to me, it’s just messed up! But you do still have a lot of hair and I’m sure it’ll grow back pretty fast. It’s so important to really vet these beauticians. I went to this one new lady after my regular beautician canceled on me last minute…. I literally hated the way the lady detangled my hair and I was so scared that my hair was damaged. I went to 2 other beauticians just to make sure my hair wasn’t broken off, thank God they both confirmed it wasn’t damaged at all. It’s hard to trust new beauticians, that’s typically not a risk I’m willing to take anymore. I just wait for my beautician to make space for me now!!

[@FineNaturalHairROCKS]

Omgosh. I'm sooo sorry that you had to deal with a painful detangling process. That sounds awful. 🤦🏽‍♀

[@rejac2833]

I have 25+ inch long hair. I HATE all of the excuses. Many stylist just are aggressive almost as if they are mad to have to detangle it. My hair is not course but it will matte very quickly. I had one person wash my hair that was so gentle detangling and REALLY cleansed my hair. He quit. The next person barely washed it and I had to ask for the comb to detangle my own hair. I don't tolerate pain. I will not go to a salon again until I can find one that uses a RevAir because that yanking with a regular dryer is dead to me.

[@aduramigbaadetu5625]

Once an hair stylist cut my hair, I’m never going back there🥲

[@dommoniquewashington1064]

Omggggg Britt!! I LITERALLY had a similar experience This past October!!!! The hairdresser literally butchered my hair and set me back at least 2 years!!!! She gave me layers that I never asked for, my hair is completely uneven and I so badly DONT wanna cut my hair to even it out! After that experience I get so upset every time it’s wash day bcuz I have layers on my left side & my right side is longer than my left! Completely disgusted and wanted to cry soooooooo bad!!!!

New subbie here im so sorry that, that happend to you . i have a similar hair horror story . but i had heat damage ! 1st time going to a hair stylist in 15 plus years 1st time ever since being natural . and neverrr again . i use miracle drops saved my life i swear by them . i feel your pain i couldn't look at my hair wash day was a breeze ! Smh and it sounds good but you know natural hair in reality takes some timeee . so i had to cut pieces the front was like a fro . a mess i still have to do a video on it . but its a shame that this happens too often. I feel your pain its not just hair lol i did a trim /cut on here and damn near passed out so i know lol it will grow back true. Ill be following the journey and i want to join the journey -moemoe

[@ossier2796]

Never go to a stylist with your hair tangled. Your stylist didn’t properly prepare you for the appointment. You need a consultation and you need to communicate with each other before the appointment and during the appointment.

[@ebonywilliams1991]

I’m very tender headed!! I’m a stylist but I have been doing my own hair for a year now. It sounds like she wasn’t starting from your ends when she was detangling or blow drying. It was the product she used that caused your hair to tangle possibly too keep your hair curly

[@revilsdr]

As a hairdresser this is definitely a lesson learned no matter how skilled you feel a hairdresser is you must be very clear about how much hair you’re willing to let go of and you never want to tell them just do whatever they think it needs unless it’s somebody you’ve been to before, and you know you can trust them, because everybody has a different idea of what’s healthy hair means etc. Especially with very curly texture the hair can feel damaged/frizzy and telling someone to cut all the damage off could result in them cutting a lot of your hair. I don’t think she was prepared for how much hair you had, and did not detangle it properly during the shampoo which caused it to mat up and tangle more.

[@ms.denise4074]

I’m sorry this happened to you, but God will give it back to you x2! I’ve had many bad experiences with going to hair salons. After losing all my hair to stress alopecia, and regrowing it to more than 12”, I truly don’t trust anyone hands in my head! I’ve had people tell me I should get a silk press n I’ll look good with a silk press. My response is always, I look good now…you’ve never seen me with a silk press so how u know how I’ll look.

[@YummyCandiCollection]

This week I had a client like this. She had not had a trim in a very long time so her ends kept tangling up. It was like I had to detangle the same section 5 times even after a deep conditioning treatment. It took 4 hours and she was very very tender headaches. Even trying to flat iron on 390 degrees the comb wouldn't go through her ends 🤦🏾‍♀️ We finally got through it and she took accountability for allowing her hair to get that bad of condition. Although she told me to cut whatever needed to be cut, I didn't. I've been in the hair industry for a long time and what I feel as a professional that needed to be cut I knew it would upset her. I had a conversation with her to do this gradually over the next few months so that it's not a devastating experience.

[@lisaj4441]

Once you learn to do your own hair, anyone else doing it will be a fail. YOU know your hair best and your hair is loyal only to YOU. They tangled up your hair when they washed it. Also, they may have used products that your hair didn't like. I recently had a bad salon visit and understand your pain. It will be many years before I visit a salon again.

[@indigoldd]

In the white cape photo, you had 3-4 inches of broken hair in a U-shape. The left side showcases the knots the stylist was mentioning, which made the experience painful. To be fair, all of that needed to go immediately. At the very least, I'm glad the stylist showed you. But you gotta up the frequency of your trims so that you don't have to deal with a traumatic cut like that again. I had the same experience ❤

[@NaenaeAC]

Same thing happened to me. I waited to long to get trims and lost a lot of inches from doing so after years of getting it really long.

[@HeavenlyFaithful]

Same thing with me. I didn't go to a salon to get my cuts for 4 years and had to get 4-6 inches off 😒. But it needed to go lol

[@indigoldd]

Glad we all learned! Skipping trims + not washing and treating the hair for 2 months and coming to a stylist un-detangled with wig glue on your edges will definitely have you in the salon for hours.. It's not always the stylist's fault all the time.

[@colienmallia2641]

Hey theirs this hair stylist that has a youtube called Deeper than hair and she's verry good with doing any type of hair she detangles and washes your hair

[@DanishDanaDani]

This is why I’m terrified of going to the salon!

[@princesseinuyasha]

You are amazing! Trust me we all know the feeling. Lowkey I really just go to Dominican places or Spanish salons and they actually know how to deal with our type of hair. I'm not sure where you went but I always try to be optimistic and them boom (hair fail) so I do the same like you are doing (I shake it off and try again after a few years). I never had a silk press. I always got a blowout but even with a Brazilian blowout it's never guaranteed they will do it correctly. I love watching your videos and we will all be here to watch your hair journey. Side note I been natural for 9 years now and I definitely cut inches(3-4) 🥲 over the years 🤣😂

[@TheBrainyBroadcast]

when you said this 👌🏽 much of curly hair, i died inside. I did that to my self one time and when i stretched it out, it was so much

[@PhelisaG]

That's hectic, I have been growing my natural hair for a while and its the longest it has been and I don't let anybody do my hair besides if I am doing braids or any type of extensions. I detangle and wash my own hair.

[@sudiesudie5110]

😯And she didn’t even cut it even!!! 🤦🏽‍♀️

[@taliacotton6833]

It’s the type of shampoo and conditioner you use as well it matters when detangling

[@miriamo.8631]

Can’t wait for the hair challenge

[@britttanyrose]

Yes!!!

[@leebrown8135]

Wow!If I am correct, the cut happen in 2021 and I as a new comer am just seeing the video. Circumstances appear from your very detailed explanation about the visit to the stylist, is she did not, know her business. I saw tbe anguish in your eyes, a d heard the pain in your voice. The situations to many of us and thats many, many, clie nts dont let stylist cut their hair. People say, "But you still have a lot of hair, are naive, ( and I am being nice because they dont understand). I am so sorry you had to experience this situation. I hope you cried, to release your pain and realize thats a good thing. But you are child of the most high. You will overcome. Try to research stylist by visiting their salons and asking can you watch them cut hair. Tell them yku are searching for style but you are not sure what you want. And dont display your natural hair.

[@lcwisdom1]

It doesn't even look like she gave you a good cut. I've had 2 hairdressers cut my hair and never again both times they were talking on the phone and they cut one side so much shorter than the other and then one tried to say it was like that when I came in but that was not the truth. When I was trying to tell one of the ladies that I prefer she not talk on the phone when she was doing my hair she would even let me say anything and just ignored me. I just learned to do my own hair. I just don't trust Beauticians anymore I know all of them are not bad but I've never really ever had one to do my hair right they would break it off and the only time my hair grows is when I keep doing it myself.

[@brittneyedwards8127]

We ALL have a story like this or several. If you MUST get a cut, flat iron it yourself then go to supercuts or to the Asian salon. When you tell them to cut off 1/4, 1/2 or 1 inch that's ALL they will cut.

[@ellie5373]

I did this before. did my hair and straightened it pin straight. Went to the Ethiopians at Supercut and even after telling her how much to cut she said she knew better for what my hair needed and took like 5 inches smh. Then had the nerve to say "it will grow back by next year"

[@ashleybrown8048]

😳😳😳 a detangling fee!!! Omg hell no, that’s the first time I ever heard of a damn detangling fee these damn stylist are WILD!!! Omggggg I’m so sorry for your experience! I have waist long hair also, it is a different texture but I still never been to someone who even have all them damn add on fees! 😩😩😩. 6 hours!!!!!!!!!!!! I pay $100 for the whole sha-bang ( 2hrs- shampoo,deep conditioning, blow out, straighten one pass only, then trim). My stylist also recorded thee entire process of all her clients for her own content. I appreciated that too. I’m so mad at this stylist she obviously had no experience with your hair type and should of just said that!

[@tremor_007]

It looks healthier at the end because of the cut.

[@lesheawhite1870]

Oh no. I'm so sorry. Ive had that happen to me too.

[@chell807]

She cut like 7' off your hair. I had an experience where I went to a salon to get my one length bob cut refreshed and the stylist shaved the side of my head. TO THE SCALP!! I know that she did it on purpose because she couldn't even look me in the eye when she was done.

[@shawnm.martin5721]

Happened to me twice!! The second time AFTER I cut it down, grew it out AGAIN, and TOLD her all of the above, she burned it. All of this is after I grew it back after having chemo from breast cancer. That burnt smell is also the worse. Just Tragic.

[@cgonzalez1445]

🤭Sorry that happened to you. For reasons similar to this I've been thinking about researching how to give myself trims because I don't trust most stylists these days.

[@tammymitchell1241]

You know I feel like if a stylist doesn't use the big Combs to detangle your natural hair they do not know what they're doing anyway

[@juliemayfield7598]

This is y I do my hair at home last time I went I had two bald spots to the shop

[@ossier2796]

$1.00 deposit? 😂 I like that my stylist is a one on one stylist and she has 2hrs for me and if I arrive early I call her and if she has a client I wait in my car until she’s ready for me.

[@SG-jz5nb]

Some people’s hair is naturally THICK from root to TIP . Most likely your hair was extremely “tangled” tbh . Sounds like she didn’t properly blow dry your hair correctly or take her time when it came to your ends .

[@f.maria7835]

My stylists used to tell me to cut my hair because it wasn't growing all at the same lenth,,,I stopped going to the hair salon and started doing my own hair...I put the got tools away and keep my hair in 8 braids and all I use is water and grease and my hair is bow at my waist.....

[@roshandabarriffe2995]

Beautiful hair it just going to come back stronger and healthy it a learning experience, but 2022 we growing hair together 😊❤ I'm 12 inches January 2022 we can do length check in December 2022 🎯. I have a amazing hairstyle I'm doing protective style sew in, braids and ponytail with 2 or 3 weeks breaks between style for the whole year 2022 then December getting my hair flat iron 🤗 We got this 🙏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾🎉

[@almamalkia9061]

I have a feeling she was jealous of how long your hair is and wanted to cut it because why would she cut that much that’s why u can’t just go to anyone and you have to find a stylist for you cause some of these Stylist don’t know how to do your type of hair Brittany I love your vids keep up the good work 💕💕💕💕

[@laearth0330]

When I was 19, my father took me to this Spanish salon and my hair was so long, she was cutting my hair and I didn’t even know until my sister said something about it

[@teewthebiz2159]

Yes let's grow this hair in 2022

[@britttanyrose]

Yes let’s do it!!

[@jeanninegorden8142]

Sorry that happened. Did you notice any improvement with your detangling process since the cut?

[@aduramigbaadetu5625]

Sorrryyy ❤️❤️. I understand

[@ossier2796]

When I get my natural hair done she requires that I come with clean and detangled hair if not she charges extra.

[@lizzy5997]

I literally had a similar experience with a hairstylist last summer and she kept complaining about my ends and she kept complaining non stop. I don’t know if I’ll ever go back to a hairstylist

[@mattwey9735]

Do u trim ur own hair ?
