This job is demanding. They started me right away trying to go as fast as the young experienced in the system they have. It may take me longer, but I got some pretty wild hair to start with. Today I had a man get upset that he didn't get what he wanted. I tried so hard to give him what he asked. I kept my cool, but when I heard "worst haircut ever" and I'm sensitve and in pain already from these last 2 days, I had to walk out for a breather. THeres no air condition, I was sweating buckets.

They push you to go fast, but I got very very long hair to layer and cut. A mother was EXTREMELY RUDE, I did what she asked. there was just the tiniest amount of hair she kept going back and saying see it's not right there, now there, well GEEZZZ, if I keep cutting when I finished the style, it looks worse. She yelled at me and the stylist I brought over (who was so kind to help me try to calm this mother down) that 'IF YOU'RE TRAINING SOMEONE NEW YOU SHOULD GIVE A HEADS UP!!! "
I've been a stylist for 28 years. It hurts when you know you did well and someone picks at you. Rant over.

I feel so sore, I'm in so much pain I know getting out of this bed in the morning is going to feel like pushing a huge boulder up and mountain. 12 hours and no paid break or time to sip water. UGHHH

Hugs to all struggling with this depression and trying to make their way through life.
