I got my hair highlighted less than a week ago at a new salon. I realized today that my roots are about a 1/2 inch long!

Do hairstylists highlight hair as far away from the root as possible to get you to come back sooner?

no, i never do that. if someone did that to you, its exactly for the reason you said....I'd go back there and make them fix it. that's just unacceptable.

No, I think you just went to a really bad salon, or the hair stylist was very inexperienced and couldn't get close enough to the root.

If they are doing this, change salons or tell them you want it done for free next time.

I have that same problem!!! WHAT IS WITH THAT!?

I did a home highlighting kit and they said to not apply directly to the scalp ... maybe it can cause major irritation?

Do hairstylists highlight hair as far away from the root as possible to get you to come back sooner?

No, most salons want you to be satisfied with their work.

They want you to come back because they did a good job.

There could have just been a new person working or something.

That could have been a strategy, but I doubt you will go back so it is unlikely that they did that on purpose.

They could have been a first-timer and not wanted to hurt your roots!

Good Luck!

I always hated when they did that to me! When I was blonde I'd always tell the girl to go down AS FAR AS POSSIBLE to my scalp. Even doing this however, yielded poor results. I just started to do it myself, and funny that I was able to get all the way to the scalp with no problems.

My stylist gets it almost all the way to the scapl. They leave a teeny amount that you can't notice to prevent irritation but it sounds like you went to a crappy stylist!

I think it really does depend on the hairdresser and how much attention she's paying to what she's doing.

I got my hair highlighted twice from the same lady: the first time it was great and the front highlights were nice and close to my scalp. The second time she did it the front ones were about 3/4 inch from my scalp in a weird line! It looked awful.

I have learned the key is to make sure you tell the hairdresser to get as close to your scalp as possible. If she knows what your expectations are ahead of time, you'll end up with a better result.

Good luck!!

the problem here is that u have a bad hairstylist sweetie... the stylist must get as close as possible to ur scalp without the bleach touching ur scalp due to getting an irritation- other than that ur highlites should still look like new...

Do hairstylists highlight hair as far away from the root as possible to get you to come back sooner?

I don't think hairstylists do that on purpose. I think the one you went to just didn't know what they were doing. I think they try to do the best job possible so you come back to them. If they did that on purpose they would just be losing business cause their customers wouldn't come back. If I were you I would try a different one. Try one that says color specialists. Tell the new stylist that you have had problems in the past with the highlights being too far away from your scalp

Do you have your reciept? A good salon will not do this. If you have your reciept go back to the salon and ask for a correction or to have some of your money back. Do not use this salon again. There is no reason why your roots should be this long. Good luck, Im sorry you had a run in with a bad salon.
