I finally got my hair straighten - with a price. It was a painful experience; like the salon that burnt my hair, I don't think I'll ever go back again, no matter how cheap that is.
This guy from China attended to my hair. Initially I was really impressed by his hair-washing technique. However, never did I know that it was just peace before the storm.
The way he dries hair was messy. My hair was pushed to the front of my face, allowing water 'splashed' towards me. Then, after he finished drying my hair, I do not see a nicely managed hair , but a "lion-head".
The best part was when he was using hair-straightener to straighten my hair. But to me, it felt like a hair-plucking session. You can literally see how he pulled my hair violently, as if to vent his hungry-anger for taking away his dinner time. Each time he did that, I can feel some popping sensation to indicate how many extra hair I've lost to his service. Even after expressing my pain facially and verbally, he still continued doing what he did, without understanding how it should be done.
That's when the hair-washing session became worse too. The water came to my face, even up to the collarbone.
Thankfully his hair-cutting skill isn't that bad, which offset the much frustration that I had throughout the 2hours torture.
The treatment wasn't even considered a proper one, and I left the salon with a not-so-soft hair.
For $58, I'd rather give an additional $30 to its sister brand (managed by the boss's brother), which was just beside the salon. Their rivalry against each other just showed me who'll last longer in the industry: the one who provided the professional service. Ultimately, more money definitely will have a better service experience and post-sale coverage.
To end the painful experience, I lay my numb head on my pillow which gave me a lot of spasms to inform me that it's in pain. After all, I should've learn my lesson and go to my best salon so far (@Simei) to have an expensive but long-lasting hair fix.
