[QUOTE="Nomad, post: 145282"] Abbey...Yep, those prices were a huge shock to me! Susie...yep, we've talked here about how bad service is becoming more and more common in the US. I was going to a nail place for many years. For some reason, perhaps in an effort to save money, they started to not use the air conditioning most days. AND the nicer employees left and the grouches remained. Even though their prices were really great, I made a decision to leave there. I'm paying more were I am going now, but I am much happier. I've had all sorts of problems with hairdressers. Where I'm going now (for the most part...for cut and color) is pretty good...it is just a little expensive. I have had the same exp. as you...they don't want to listen. The last place I went to I said "I don't like a lot of product on my hair." She then proceeded to put two things on my hair. It didin't make sense in my book....she should either not do it or at least speak with me about it, etc. IT is disrespectful. Perhaps folks don't have any social graces. I'm baffled. Anyway, so like you quit going to Sam's, I quit going to this nail place...and I'm not the only one...'cause business is "dead" over there. I have several appointments coming up at my expensive hair place...I will pay the price and be happy about it. They are professional there...it counts in my book. Anyway, I agree with your stance. If you/we are paying for something...it is correct to speak up. Sometimes I have to 1) learn to speak up 2) always remember to be polite when speaking up. Sometimes I'm so afraid I will be impolite...I just leave unsatisfied. by the way...we were NOT able to go to dinner after all. difficult child had a problem and it got cancelled. We are going to try again tonight and of course I will do my own hair. DL, Susie...everyone...thank you very much for your helpful responses....it really calmed my nerves. (hugs). [/QUOTE]
