I got my hair cut so I’d look good for my best friend’s wedding – it was a disaster

Once you’ve found a hairdresser you trust, you’re likely to remain extremely loyal.

And one woman whose best friend’s wedding was around the corner turned to her regular snipper when she needed a new haircut for the big day.

Shelby, posted a video of her new haircut on TikTok, where it has been viewed three million times.

Shelby, who is a math school teacher in the US, said she had gone to her hairdresser to get a new haircut like the one she had done a few months before.

Shelby said she was happy with the haircut she had received from the hairdresser in July this year.

But when she asked for the exact same haircut from the exact same hairdresser just a week ago, she got something entirely different.

In the before photos, Shelby’s hair looks amazing in a modern, choppy long bob, but the haircut she received after leaves a lot to be desired.

Shelby captioned the post: “RIP TO MY HAIR MIGHT MESS AROUND AND SHAVE IT ALL OFF.”

In the comments of the video, users were shocked the haircut was done by the same person and many told Shelby to get a refund.

Shelby said she didn’t realize how bad it was as the hairdresser had curled her hair and she didn’t see the full results until she was home.

Shelby said she did eventually get a refund for the haircut in a separate video and explained how she got her money back.

She said: “I texted her the next morning and I said I have cried all night and all morning about this haircut and sent her both pictures and told her it wasn’t the same haircut.”

She explained to the hairdresser that she was really unhappy with the results, but was shocked when the hairdresser replied saying she thought Shelby’s problem with it was that it was too short.

Shelby went on to say she told the woman she had ruined her hair but the hairdresser didn’t accept that and told Shelby to come back so she could fix it.

Shelby said she didn’t go back as she was uncomfortable with her doing her hair again, and eventually messaged the owner of the salon to ask for a refund, which she received.

Users couldn’t believe it was the same hairdresser when the results were so different, one user wrote:

“This is literally intentionally bad if she’s done it right before. You can’t mess up a blunt cut.” Exclaimed another user.

A third user wrote: “Was she having a bad day and TOOK IT OUT ON YOUR HAIR?! I am so sorry.”
