Recently, I went to NuWave and I asked for a purple balayage. I had seen so many coloured balayages on Instagram, and I had been trying for months to get one--on my own.
I walked into the salon with level 4 dark brown hair. To make matters worse, I had bleach washed my hair a month prior, hence the dark brown box dye.
My stylist was Cass. She is a bubbly "senior" student who has learned many techniques. Two of her instructors were also available to guide her through the whole process.
Cass started by cutting some of the damage from the ends of my hair. Then, she did a backcomb balayage. She

My stylist rarely asked for my input and didn't listen to it when it was given. I have a very patchy, stripey dye job and barely cut hair that is nowhere near the style I asked for repeatedly. After 6hrs of trying, I eventually just said it was good so I could leave. I don't blame this on a willingness to listen, but rather a language barrier I… think, she just wasn't understanding what I was asking for. I paid $150 for this hair, which seems like a ridiculous amount for a student to do my hair, given that the last time I went to a salon it cost about the same and my hair was past my bottom

If any student makes any mistake(some of the students are good) they will tell you that its a 13 dollar haircut school. U can't expect more than this (the professor himself said that). If the customer is not okay with that then they will make this look like a confrontation and will tell the customer to leave. Its obvious that people do mistake but covering it up with confrontation is quiet an unprofessional move. Even the students working there knows a lot about this but they can't say anything because its a school right ?
