Warning: Don't let clients talk you into those trendy butterfly haircuts without a consultation first

I did one last week for a regular who saw it on TikTok, and she hated it... kept saying it looked choppy and uneven even though it was exactly what she asked for. Three years ago I would have just done what they wanted, but now I spend a solid 10 minutes explaining how that style works with different hair textures. Spent about 45 minutes trying to blend it back into something she'd actually wear, which killed my whole schedule for the day. Has anyone else had clients blame you for a cut they insisted on but didn't understand?

Isn't that just the worst when you spend forever fixing something they insisted on?

Oh man, nothing like putting in all that work just to have them change their mind the next week! You ever get that feeling that they just enjoy watching you sweat it out?
