She called in 10 min prior begging to get in. Noone was available so I tried to help out. #siiri

Client is a b. Did she know it was your day off or the apprentice practice? Lots of karens here

I get that it’s not a right and it was awful nice of her to take the lady on her day off, but let’s not stretch it and say it’s a privilege. She’s paying for the service. A privilege would be getting it for free.

If it's your day off then stay at home. If you come to work then don't make the customer the victim of YOUR decision. The fact that you chose to work on YOUR DAY OFF is not the customer's business.

Honestly we've raised two generations of imbeciles.

The salonist should have also added that she is the owner of this beauty salon & several other salons in the city & now that Karen has disrespected the owner of the salons on her day off, & try to go all Diva Karen on her. ❤😂🎉😊

If your at work its no longer your day off

So it is her privilegeTO BE THERE AND to pay you??? 😅😂😂 Actually it is your privilege to have her. As a customer, she could have went elsewhere and not frequented your salon at all. You are lack in your professionalism.

Oh for goodness sake stop saying my day off… so annoying.….

I had a stylist that would book two clients at a time and it was awkward and I was always worried about over processing. Don't take a client if you don't have time for them or busy doing something else. That's how we end up getting our hair melted off. Take her on the day you're working and not playing

You go girl! People!

No, truly.. you feckers need to learn customer service and standards of behavior.

Well done ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

I had a salon squeeze me in during someone's colour. I was grateful.

U still booked her on ur day off though.

To be fair, you should have made it clear what was going on so this situation could have been avoided. Y'all both wrong here.

MY GOD YES

No I agree. If you're accepting a client, they should get the same degree of customer service and attention as they'd get if it wasn't your day off. YOU choosing to take her on your day off is irrelevant. If you weren't prepared to dedicate the time to do the job satisfactorily, don't take it at all. I agree with the customers point just not her attitude in making it.

Well I would be suspicion that the person is not serious,

Name of the tv show?

People like that is part of the reason I quit being a stylist . Did it for 5 years and people never got any better .

I seem the filter on your lashes

I am with the customer. Day off or not you give an hours so you respect the hours or else you say no from the start. Peoples have schedules you know.

If it's YOUR DAY OFF why did you take the booking?
If you have taken the booking you should honour it.

I meeeeeeeeeean......it's not doing me a favor if you're lackadaisical cause you weren't technically on the schedule today. I expect the same professional service if I didn't cause the need for an exception or change. It would've beeb better to let the customer know ahead of time and let them decide.

Amen

If a hairstylist cannot give her full attention to a client, she shouldn’t take the appointment. Having a day off explains why you’re preoccupied, but it doesn’t excuse it. Neither the client nor the apprentice are receiving the care they need.

Plus, the business owner never has a day off.

I would rather not be booked then- and be told ahead of time by the salon…

If you are there working- it is not your day off… 😅

Uhhh… regardless of the fact that it’s your day off, you chose to take the job.
“Karen” is no less deserving of proper service and care simply because you chose to take a job on your day off.
Say you worked someplace else, like MacDonalds, and your manager calls you to come in on your day off. You don’t get to sit in the drive through in your bikini giving customers attitude while eating experimental burgers from the new hire because “it’s my day off whaaaa!”
Yeah no. Once you take a job “on your day off”, it’s no longer “your day off”.
And you are expected to show up, ready to work, in a professional manner.
And that’s not what this is portraying.
This is portraying a degree of entitlement that all paying customers should avoid like the plague.

Why are women like this? I don't see this behavior in men for the general sense

Why do ppl just assume things? I wanna know what happened what if there is a wild back story GIVE ME THE TEA 🫖

As a Nurse who can't do this, I want to thank you for this, it truly makes me happy to see people responded to in kind. Because Ooh, Lord! Some people, um, clearly have servants at home. Your style in particular is really enjoyable and appreciated.

Why would you let someone do your hair before you do your job?
Doesn't make a lick of sense!

doesn't it seem like a better option to refuse someone booking last minute instead of somehow fitting them in and then not doing the work well
They still have to pay full price and this way they are not getting their money's worth

I'm tired of the Karen's. I once had the reverse happen. I went in to set an appointment with my hairdresser. The one there insisted on doing it because she had time snd claimed that was what they did for walkins. I reluctantly let her. She totally botched it. When I made an appointment with my hairdresser, it turned out that she botched it on purpose as payback for me being a Karen. Problem was that she got the wrong person. The owner fired her as soon a she heard what happened. And the Karen she though I was, was only reacting to the treatment this lady gave her.

My last day of at JCPenney's salon.....the new manager saw me come in to get my color touched up and while processing emerald green over my fresh bleached streaks.....I walked out through the store to run to Spencer's for a gift for my brother. My manager waited till the next day when I was working to interrupt the service I was giving a client to drag me by my arm to his office to chew my ass for walking through the store with color and a shower cap on my head.

This while we actively allow clients to shop with strict time limitations during processing and we would shop the same during down time. The store manager even encouraged me, using my first name, to buy things on a particularly slow day, with bleach, foils, and a shower cap on my head. Because of this practice, store patrons that had no idea we had a full salon in a hole across the hall from the customer desk and would come check us out because of seeing a client, in a cape with chemical on their hair in the store. No it was not the most professional thing to do BUT, it was my day off, was in street cloths, and having him interrupt a client to make a mountain out of a molehill was uncalled for.

People are ridiculously rude 🙄 I was having red put in my hair by my regular stylist and the guy working there was obsessed and kept saying how nice it was going to look, as soon as she was done with my hair he took the colour bowl and scrapped the leftovers out to put some red in too 😂 honestly if I saw my stylist getting practised on I'd just call her the guinea pig and let her crack on with whatever, how else are students going to learn?

Dressed down? Was she expecting a cocktail dress and heels? Hair styling can be wet, messy work. I don't care what my stylist is wearing. And if they have something interesting going on with their hair, so much the better, IMO.

If you are being PAID to provide a service on your day off, then IT'S NOT YOUR DAY OFF!! You are working, act like it.... and if you're going to be providing services on your day off, look like it. If you're helping an apprentice learn, then make sure you are professionally presentable before returning to clients.

Yeah. MY day off and I am stepping up. Nah. She can go somewhere else.

Some people confuse the freedom to do what they please with the right to do things and some people don't understand that freedom of activity doesn't mean freedom of consequence

Those eyebrows 😒🧐

How is it last minute if she had an appointment

Love the different colored eyebrows.

Git ‘er!

Love this ❤

Well I mean if she had the appointment booked then it was someone’s job at the salon to take her…

Front desk agent here. This happens all the time at my hotel (the late arrivals/next day arrivals, not the theft part). We get guests who call and say their not coming in for that day or they are arriving after night audit. To ensure they don't lose the room we check them in (if their card declines we send them an authorization form) and write on our shift report and the reservation itself that the guest is checked in just id them and give them the keys. Under no circumstance would we EVER double dip like that. That was scummy and shameful. Shame on them for giving your bonus aunt's already paid for room to someone else when she called multiple times!

As we continue to dive deeper into the 21st century, I've increasingly found the notion of "dressing down" to be more and more obscure. Like, even if she wore sweatpants, please tell me how that would affect her job at all.

Did someone tell her that no one was available before she was booked?

If she couldn't get service on that particular day, then no one should have booked her. End of story.
