    LITTLE O, i always thought that a hairdresser would want to leave, looking your best too, but the last haircut i had, the voucher covered colour and cut, but blowdry was an extra 45 that i didn't have, so i walked out with very wet hair - and they didn't blink an eyelid. So i would assume, they didn't care. The place was dodgy though, i don't think the people owning/running it, had done a hairdressing apprenticeship/tafe course, they missed out so many "basics".

    Next cut, i will ask for a natural haircut, not 100% confident asking that, but will try. Does Natural in this case, mean "a haircut that involves ZERO straightening?".

    My hair does scrunch up, with mousse put in it, after a wash, had forgotten about that, with all the emphasis on straightening (over last two years). thanks for reminding me of that.

    Some of those vouchers are for their apprentices to get practice, my SIL found that out when she got a voucher for her usual hairdressing salon!

    A natural cut should mean that it's cut to suit your hair how it is naturally. My hairdresser does them occasionally on me so he can check that it's cut for my hair, not a "style". So yes it should be less fuss, hair looks fine naturally. Sometimes it's good for them to do a dry cut that way they've cut it how it will sit normally (without their magic serums and sprays ) then they wash and style after.

    I think a good hairdresser is half the battle! Also my label m curl cream...saves my curls!

    I reckon a hairdresser should never let you leave with sopping wet hair- how did they check your cut properly, I'd they didn't at least give it a rough blow dry?

    Should have mentioned in my previous post- my sister always has her curly hair cut dry.
    Curly hair is very deceiving when wet!

    And yes, finding a good hairdresser is a battle!!!
    With my normal hairdresser, she knows what I like- I've been going there 10+ years....
    If I want a quick trim and I go to someone else- I make sure I'm very vocal about what I want!

    They normally let it dry curly under those dome things...Well they do for me anyways.
