Review of Opus Hairdressing

I had my thick hair cut into an angled bob back in November. Unfortunately, the stylist cutting my hair straight away went for the razor without asking first if I was ok with it as it does cause split ends. She then kept getting pulled over to manage another stylist doing some colouring. We had already agreed that my hair would be cut whilst in a centre parting. After it was dried with a side parting, without thought, she continued to hack away on one side. It was fine until that point. I ended up going home with one side thicker than the other and long, wispy ends. I even showed a picture at the start and the end result was too thin in comparison. She did advise me to come back if I wasn't happy, but I didn't feel comfortable going back again. I know I should have said something at the time, but I thought I'd go with it and see what happens. I've now had my hair point-cut with scissors at another salon. It's a relief to finely get the haircut I wanted in the first place. The salon and the staff are lovely, however, my advice to Opus is that clients need the full attention of the stylist, so distractions and not allocating enough time and attention should preferably be avoided. Oh yes, and please ask your clients prior to cutting, if it's ok to use a razor.
