I have never been happy with my hair cuts, I did find one stylist who was very up to date and trendy, but she has relocated.My problem is I have very very thick, coarse and stubborn hair. I go for styles that are wash and wear. It is very difficult to find a good stlyist who listens. I also have a low hair line in the back with cowlicks. I had a hair cut 2 months ago where I told the stylist this repeatedly and she landed up cutting my hair too short in the back and we had a very ugly hair line situation. I tried a new stylist last week, she hilighted my hair through a cap, and it looked great, you could tell where the hilights were, now they don't seem as vibrant. For the cut,she just used scissors to razor cut out chunks of my bulky hair, like thinning. Which Ithink is what this thick hair needs. It is much easier to dry, but the ends seem too thin now, and the hair does not lay properly. So I have to fight with it, which I hate. My sister says I need to stay with one stylist so they can get use to my hair. When I go next time, what do I say? This stylist seems like someone who does not like to be told anything. Do I ask her not to thin as much? Do I ask about the hilights fading?Tipping....if one girl washes, another helps take care of the color, and yet another dries...plus the stylist....who gets tipped and how much? I had 4 different people working on my hair.
