I asked for a cropped bob at the hairdressers but bawled when I saw my new ‘do – I went back for a refund the next day

SHE’D found a cute picture to use as inspo for her latest haircut.

And despite taking the snap into the hairdressers as a reference point to start from, Ashley was left mortified when she saw the style that she’d been given.

She took to TikTok to share both before and after snaps, as well as the inspiration picture, writing: “What I asked for…

“What I got…”

Ashley also used the hashtags “hairfail #haircut #frenchbob #salon #fail #crying #sad”.

In another TikTok slideshow, she revealed she had asked for a refund the next day, sending an email to the salon to complain.

“I showed the stylist this reference picture and a bob similar to this and this is what she gave me,” she wrote in the email.

“I was too embarrassed to say anything the other day.

“My hair is ruined…

“Is there any way I can get a refund or someone to fix this?”

The salon then replied saying that there was “definitely a disconnect” between Ashley’s inspiration pictures and her finished look.

However, after speaking to the stylist themselves, she said that she had claimed Ashley showed her a different inspiration picture “from the front”, and said she had checked with her as to the length she wanted.

The salon owner then apologised, and offered her either a refund or a “consultation and service edit” with a top level stylist to do “more blending and add in some soft layers”.

Ashley then sent the requested picture in, adding: “I don’t know how it can be fixed unless I get it all chopped off?”

To which the salon owner replied: “I completely agree with you that a service edit would not change it for the better so I would like to provide you with a full refund”.

She also said she was going to gift Ashley a product from their “Extreme Length” line, which contains Biotin to help promote hair growth.

“I deeply apologise that you have had to endure this as I know hair is such a personal thing,” they concluded.

“I don’t understand how this happens,” one person wrote in the comments section of the TikTok.

What are the biggest hair care mistakes?

Anabel Kingsley, Consultant Trichologist and Brand President at Philip Kingsley spoke exclusively to Fabulous.

Not looking after your scalp

Your scalp is an extension of the skin on your forehead and it should be given similar attention and care to the skin on your face. Scalp health is vital to healthy hair growth. Your scalp is your hair’s support system, and a flaky or inflamed scalp can contribute to hair loss and also impact the quality of hairs as they emerge from the follicle. Do cleanse and tone your scalp frequently. Try to leave no more than 2 days between shampoos.

High heat styling 

The most common cause of hair damage is high heat styling – either with a blow dryer or straighteners. While it may take a little longer, a low to medium heat setting will give you great styling results, but without dryness, breakage and split ends. You should also always use a heat protective product such as our Daily Damage Defence and don’t hold your dryer right next to your strands. 

Not eating well

Even if you’re using the best products in the world, if you aren’t eating well your hair’s condition and rate of growth won’t be at its optimal. Hair is a dispensable tissue as it isn’t needed for physical survival. This means nutrients are first used to keep essential cells functioning, with hair receiving them last.

As another added: “I know a lawyer. You should sue.”

“You need financial compensation to be honest,” a third insisted.

“It’s giving woman paused instead of girl interrupted…” someone else said.

Ashley then revealed in another TikTok that she’d made the decision to shave off all her hair to start again with a fresh slate.

RTE GAA pundit Joe Canning cracks self-deprecating gag while hailing Offaly ace Dan Ravenhill’s monster winner

DAN Ravenhill sent the game’s last puck over from 100 yards to beat Dublin – sparking wild celebrations as well as Joe Canning’s memory.

Offaly were aided by a red card to Conor Burke as they reeled in the Dubs at Croke Park by 0-27 to 1-23.

That moment reminded Canning of a painful memory from his playing days[/caption]
A 45-year wait hinging on one strike. Eight minutes of injury time are called, Galway fight back like true championsto trail by just a point, and at the death Joe Canning standsoer a free with the chance of drawing his team level. However, the distance proves too great and Limerick are the 2018 All-Ireland champions.

He couldn’t quite nail a free from a similar distance if a much tougher angle to equalise the 2018 All-Ireland final

However, they still deserve huge credit as they continue their wider upswing as they sit atop Division 1B with seven points from their four outings.

While recapping the match’s dramatic finale, Galway icon Canning harked back to when he fell agonisingly short in a similar situation.

The RTE analyst quipped: “I could’ve done with him in 2018!”

The Portumna man was of course referring to when his late, late free to level things in the 2018 All-Ireland final against Limerick fell short.

In a further call back to bygone day it’s worth noting that seven years ago Offaly came to Croker for the first round of the Allianz Hurling League and recorded a momentous 13-point win.

That win had lots of Faithful County supporters hoping it would
mark the turning of a corner.

Instead it proved to be a false dawn as they were relegated from the Leinster championship that Summer, and relegated to Christy Ring Cup hurling a year later.

This time, it feels like the graph is very clearly on the up for the midlanders.

They are now within touching distance of promotion to Division 1A, after Ravenhill’s heroics in the sixth minute of stoppage time.

The Boys in Blue now face a trip to Waterford next weekend, needing a win to stay in the promotion hunt.

For the next seven days, they’ll have nightmares about how they failed to cash in on a winning position at half-time here.

There were some nice aspects to Offaly’s hurling for that opening 35 minutes, with Oisín Kelly in particular catching the eye with three excellent points from play.

However Dublin’s hurling was slick and precise, and while it was an open game that lacked some of the physicality that both sides might need in the Summer, their use of the ball was excellent.

Conor Burke, Donal Burke, Fergal Whitely and Diarmaid Ó Dúlaing picked off some sublime points to help the Dubs to lead by 0-14 to 0-10, and after shooting eight wides.

He missed one goal chances and hitting the post with another, it could have been so much more.

https://twitter.com/Offaly_GAA/status/1893397227034292632

Speaking after the game, Offaly boss Johnny Kelly said: “We were lucky to be within the distance we were at half-time, given the way that Dublin had completely outperformed us.

“It was just a change of attitude after half-time. Every one of them lifted their performance after half-time.”

For the third quarter, it looked like it wouldn’t be enough.

The Faithful men were excellent defensively, but they weren’t getting the scores they needed, and there was still four in it when Burke fired over a free to make it 0-21 to 0-17 on the hour mark.

TIDE TURNED

Then Oisín Kelly hit another excellent score, Conor Burke struck Donal Shirley off the ball to leave Dublin down a man, and as boss Kelly cited afterwards, Offaly didn’t waste their advantage.

He added: “You have to be able to use that numerical disadvantage.

“It’s very hard to get messages into the players here in Croke Park so the key thing is for the players to take ownership of the
stage, and they did that, getting the last three points”.

It was a sensational finish.

Brian Duignan caught fire, nudging them in front in the 70th minute, only to watch in horror as Donal Shirley’s brilliant block on Ó Dúlaing only resulted in the sliotar falling to Brian Hayes for the game’s only goal.

The sides traded points before Duignan (twice) and then Ravenhill sealed a famous win.

LaLiga side set start date for £39million ‘little Bernabeu’ with stadium to be demolished and rebuilt

REAL MADRID’S city rivals have unveiled plans to build a “little Bernabeu”.

LaLiga side Getafe are set to partially demolish and rebuild their Estadio Coliseum home ground.

The current stadium, which is 15 miles away from the iconic Bernabeu, holds 16,500 fans.

But Getafe are set to modernise it and increase the capacity by 3,000.

They have plans to add a huge screen on the exterior, install a new roof to cover every fan on the terraces and put in 69 new state-of-the-art VIP boxes.

The stunning project will take two years to build and cost £39million.

Getafe face having to play away from the Estadio Coliseum while the work is being done.

The Madrid-based side have not confirmed their temporary location – but club president Angel Torres has promised big things.

He said: “It will be beautiful, modern, a small Bernabeu.”

The build is set to begin at the end of the season but could be abandoned if Getafe are relegated from LaLiga.

They sit seven points above the drop zone and there is confidence they will maintain their top-flight status for an eighth successive year.

Getafe’s ground was known as the Coliseum Alfonso Perez from its opening in 1989 until 2023.

But the former Spain striker, who never actually played for Getafe, was stripped of the privilege after comments he made about women’s football.
