I had a horror story where I visited a salon for dry hair detangling. They used some cheap products that made my hair even drier. And the way they combed through the knots was so unprofessional. They seemed in a rush and didn't take the time to be gentle. As a result, I had a lot of breakage.
Well, once I went to a salon to get my dry, tangled hair sorted. The stylist was really rough and it felt like she was just yanking my hair out. I left with an even more tangled mess and a very sore scalp. It was a nightmare.
One should avoid salons that use low - quality products on dry hair. Bad products can make the hair even drier and more difficult to detangle. Also, stay away from stylists who are rough when handling your hair. They can pull and damage your hair instead of properly detangling it.
A woman I know had her pubic hair waxed and the skin got so irritated that she couldn't wear tight clothes for days. It was red, swollen and she said it felt like she had a bad sunburn down there. She tried all kinds of creams to soothe it, but it took a long time to fully recover. She was so traumatized that she never wanted to wax again.
I heard of a case where the person had electrolysis and ended up with small pits on their skin. It was really a horror story. Apparently, the electrolysis device was too strong for their skin type. Another case was of a person who had an electrolysis session and then developed a rash all over the treated area. It was due to an allergic reaction to the cleaning solution used after the procedure.
My horror story was with shaving. I was in a hurry and didn't use enough shaving cream. The razor got stuck and cut me quite badly. Blood was everywhere and it was really hard to stop the bleeding. After that, I was so scared to shave again for a long time. I learned my lesson about taking my time and using enough product when shaving.
I have a long hair brushing story. Once, I was getting ready for a party. As I brushed my long hair, I noticed how shiny it became. I used a special brush with soft bristles. It was a relaxing moment, like a little self - care ritual before the big event.
My hair system nightmare was when it started to itch like crazy. It was so uncomfortable. I later found out that I might be allergic to some of the materials in it. I had to go through a whole process of finding a hypoallergenic hair system, which was not easy at all. It took a lot of time and money to finally get one that didn't make me itch.
One horror story I have is when I used a cheap wax strip. It didn't come off cleanly and left bits of wax all over my skin. It took forever to scrub it off and my skin was red and irritated for days.
I once knew a girl who was forced to cut her long hair because of school regulations. She was really sad as her long hair was like her pride. She tried to protest but in the end had to cut it short. It was a big change for her and she took a long time to get used to her new look.
Well, I once had a long-haired Asian friend who decided to get a bob haircut. It was a big change for her. She had always been known for her long, flowing hair. But she wanted something new and more practical. After the haircut, she looked so stylish and confident. It really transformed her look and made her stand out in a different way.
I heard about this guy whose ex - girlfriend cut his hair while he was sleeping as a 'joke', but it looked awful. In revenge, he got some of their mutual friends to spread the word about how unprofessional she was. Eventually, she had a hard time finding new friends in their social circle because people thought she was too wild and unpredictable. He didn't feel too bad about it since she had really messed up his hair.
