    Am I a bad person when my first thought when I read the title was that this hilarious? Imagine you get directed to another parlour, drive over there and see it’s a pet groomer. I would just laugh at how cartoonishly evil that was. It’s like me going to a therapist and he directs me to an euthanasia clinic. I’d think that would just be funny, and since I’m already there can’t hurt to check it out.

      Yeah hopefully people would feel that way. But thinking about it more some of these people are probably pretty sensitive about their bodies and how they look already. I think I would feel hurt or humiliated. Those aren’t nice feelings. But that’s just how the world is. Some people are just shitty and it sucks

    “If a human identifies as anything other than a man/woman…"

    Do these idiots think all trans people are non-binary? Transphobes are seriously the dumbest motherfuckers I swear.

        Good praxis to avoid any kind of TERF or bigot in th9se industries because i swear theyre always the salon owners or stylists who will give you shitty sexisy unsolicited opinions on your aesthetic and will alienate their clients and end up burning out because people who arent also assholes dont like that

        Like ive met these people and the bigotry is never in a vaccuum without other dogshit opinions AND its just stupid as a business owner to turn away a paying customer.

          I worry about getting a shit haircut from a stylist who gives me one on purpose.

          I guess it’s why I haven’t been to a salon in a long, long time, even though I could benefit from it.

            I promise you a good stylist worth their salt would be devastated to give you a bad haircut even just accidentally… we WANT people to like our work, we want you to come back. Your hair looking good is our portfolio and word of mouth is our bread and butter. Plus a shitload of us are LGBTQ+ or allies anyways… hair is hair is hair regardless of who it is on and we are in the business of affirmation

            For the record open invitation to anyone here if they want to send advice requests or ask if a style will suit them. A lot of us get into this business because making you feel good makes us feel good. Nothing makes me happier than knowing i made someone feel good about themselves.
