My first time experiencing shop was so confusing, there’s no structure. When you come in you have about 5 ladies sitting waiting to be serviced and some may be under the dryer, but there’s too many people for 1 person, and it’s impossible to get that many people serviced in a manner time. She doesn’t respect appointment time, and she also takes walks in. You come in and get a ticket number and wait. She values how many customers she get in a whole day rather than quality/quantity. Mind you at this time she would have a wash/bowl person and a person that molds your hair down so all she would have to do is style your hair. But this made things a lot hectic and even slower. Her assistants would be outside goofing off when they should be helping and even sometimes wouldn’t know what they were doing.
I believe my 2nd appointment was actually smooth, other than her saying she will be late because she was waiting on her babysitter.
Which would’ve been my 3rd appointment was my last straw. I know every time my appointment comes if theres not one of many inconveniences. So I texted her an hour before. Why at the last minute are you telling me that you are doing hair at your house. Her telling me to bring product tells me you weren’t prepared to even do my hair at the house, or decided last minute that she wasn’t going to drive from Southfield to Dearborn to only do 1-4 heads when you can do it from the convenience from your house. And then she proceeds to say no one normally minds, which is not a mindset you should have. Each client is different and she gets new clients every day, as a profession you want to notify your clients on your locations change and environment beforehand.
She also knows that her customer service is terrible that she tries to accommodate with serving dinner, and a dj. As a hairstylist there should be no reason why you are adding things to enhance your clients customer service experience when you are having trouble specializing in the customer service you already provide. It’s ghetto, overstimulating, and sometimes she brings liquor for her and her clients. Is this a party or a hair salon? She operates like she does hair from home and even if she did, she forgets she runs a business. Her clients know how she gets down and they may have got used to her antics but this will not be something I will settle with just because you do good work. And it’s sad to see how talented she is but I had to tell so many people that liked my hair not to go with her because they will not be happy. She is already popular but she would have a lot more opportunities and consistent clients if she would work on proper ways to run a business .
