Dominican blowout salon horror story: why I shaved my head bald
This happened October of 2023. I take full responsibility for my walking into that salon in the first place. I had already established a relationship with someone who actually knew how to do my hair. My curls never reverted back to how they were, the color was really damaging, and I ultimately had to shave my hair off bald.
I’m still in the process of growing out healthy hair.
I’m not saying Dominican (DR) Blowout hair salons are bad; I’m just saying to be careful! For those of us with hair trauma we tend to say things like “it’s just hair it’ll grow back” because that’s the excuse from the people causing the trauma. But it’s been more than a year and my hair isn’t as healthy as it was back...

    Dominican ( DOH-min-nee-can) Republic (DR) and Dominica ( DOM-min-nee-ca) are two different places/countries with 2 different attitudes to kinky hair. One wants to straighten it and one is happy to let it be. The DR speaks Spanish, they identify as Latinx and have a population that is 70% mixed-dual-tri-racial-multi-racial ( Mestizo, Mulatto, Indio, Moreno) and 7-8% Black-Afro-African ethnicity. Dominica speaks English, is part of the British Commonwealth and has a population that is 75% Black race/ African heritage and 19% mixed ethnicity. Both countries take part in CARICOM- the Caribbean community intergovernmental economic and political organisation.DR as an observer and Dominca as a member state.

    1. I had my hair coloured by a creative & educational director at an Aveda Salon with majority white clients. 2. No cash app. 3. He had been doing my natural hair for 5 years by then. 4. I got my hair cut in a black-owned barbershop by a barber of Turkish Heritage. The colour you wanted was complex. The cut you wanted was complex...that lady was probably just a junior stylist. there are around 5 levels of stylists in a salon: junior, senior, master, educator, creative director, artistic director and the owner of the salon. You should have a full consultation and a patch test 48 hours before the actual colouring service.

    I am no hairdresser, but I think she bleached your hair too much. The result would be that the hair dye would look much lighter on your hair. Also, bleaching may be more damaging to your hair type. Bleaching your hair is altering the hair, your curls would still change.

      @@dabeezkneez8716 1. My hair was cut really short, I didn’t ask for that. 2. The color was nothing like I asked. 3. That flat iron job was terrible, my curls never came back. So my hair was damaged from the color and the heat. I’m the one who had to deal with the real life damage because I thought I was going to someone who was skilled and licensed to manage my hair type. *I* learnt my lesson. I’m not asking that they be Gods, but if she didn’t know how to do what I asked she should’ve said so. This was my experience, not yours.

      I am VERY aware of your complaint since I experienced something similar. Shame on that person. I went to a Dominican because I am Dominican. It hurt me to my heart to have come out with dried , fried and whacked hair done by allegedly one of my own. It might be correct that HERE they may not be licensed. My hair was very full & waist length ,it's no longer that now😢. Condition your hair well , treat it gently, do your own hair. Given time & patience it will grow. Be positive ❤
