35 Times “Trusting The Process” At The Beauty Salon Ended Up Comically Bad

When we go for a hair cut, we know that we can’t get exactly what we hoped for. Even if you take a photo of your inspiration, there are factors such as hair texture, length or colour that may prevent a hair stylist from giving you exactly what you were hoping for. However, you trust the process, hope that the stylist can account for these issues and pull off an original look that complements you. Sadly, some netizens found that their trust was ill-fated, as the results of their hair cuts were so utterly horrifying that they didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.

Image source: Skr000 Two weeks ago, I got my nails done professionally for the first time in almost a decade and this is what I got. I just wanted to share these beautiful cats before I take these nails off. I actually think I’m going to miss them staring up at me.

#23 Got My Hair Done

Image source: Electronic-Sea-4866 I’ve done my own hair for years and finally decided to let someone else do it. My hair is so fried and damaged it feels like pasta noodles when wet. Went to a salon with a newer stylist, I’ve been in her spot. I know how it goes. You don’t learn if you don’t get experience. A few months back we did a hair roulette and it was super cute just faded really quickly. This time we wanted to do Beetlejuice inspired hair and I ended up really liking the blonde. Today we tone it out and I’m missing half a head of hair. I could just cry

#27 $350 Hairstyle. Specifically Said, “I Don’t Want To Even Approach Mullet Territory”. 1st Pic Is My Hair Before The Appointment, 2nd Is What I Asked For, The Last 2 Pics Is The Result

Image source: zivara The real kicker? I had been going to this person for 2 years already and never had any problems before this. But they were really weird about getting this appointment scheduled (had to ask a few times) and then were very atypically quiet the entire appointment. Lesson learned I guess.

#28 Asked For The Haircut On The Left, Received The Haircut On The Right

Image source: Pkyankfan69 I’m a dude, not particularly fussy about my hair, but I’m hosting Thanksgiving with my GF next week for both our families and she butchered me.

#29 Oh No No No (Saline Removal Works!) Before During After

Image source: CandySprinkles4U Never answer an ad for someone looking to “fill out their portfolio “…immediate regret! 24 hours later I got saline removal. Three months later they were literally gone. Thank God! I screenshot all these so they’d have the dates for Timelapse reference.
