I'm so mad right now that it's not even funny.
So, Thursday I went in a salon to get my hair permanently straightened. I've had this process done before at another salon with another hairstylist who unfortunately moved. Also, she charged about $200ish, which is a bit much right now to pay for getting my hair permanently straightened (I'm 16). hat being said, this place by my house where we recently moved cost $85 dollars. I asked what product they used for it and I was just told "It's a hair relaxer". Prior to starting, she told me that my hair wouldn't be completely straight but it would be slightly wavy, which I was more than fine with. So the process was completely different from my other stylist (her process was about 6 hours in total). At this salon, it took about less than two hours and she put product in my hair and kept combing my hair. She kept combing my hair the entire time. After she washes it out, she blow dries my hair straight and sprayed a lot (and I mean A LOT!) of that hair shine spray. My hair looked greasy and I was told to not wash it for 2 days.
I wash my hair today and my hair is exactly the same. BUT, it's extremely damaged and frizzier than my hair was before it. If I touch my hair, it feels like straw. My mom is furious, as am I so shes planning to take me back to the salon on Monday to see if they can either fix it or refund her money back (which I doubt they will do).
I don't think my hair has ever been this badly damaged ever. It was over a year since the last time I had my hair permanently straightened and when I had it done last year, my hair wasn't damaged and I didn't need to cut it right away.
I don't want to cut my hair really short because of my hair being extremely damaged from this. Any recommendations on what I should do? :/
