Is it OK to change hairdressers?

What should I do if I hate my hair after an appointment?

What to say when you change hairdressers?

- “I’m not going to be using this color / treatment any more.”
How do I decline a hair appointment?

How do you tell your hairdresser you are not happy?

How do you tell your hairdresser they messed up?
