Been doing hair for 31 years. I have to say,, it never gets easier...only harder. Even the clients who tell you they love you, shower you with Christmas gifts and praise your work will stab you in the back the moment you are sick, need time off or can't fit them in. I am currently looking for a way to get out of this, its hard because now my body feels wrecked . I have no energy left to take care of me.
After 25 years , i closed my salon last month. I started to hate all my customers. I felt anxious and had terrible acid reflux. You'd be surprised how quickly we get replaced. The moment i handed in my keys to my landlord after clearing out the salon i felt i lost 1000lbs of stress off my back. Its been over 2 weeks and i haven't had one single episode of anxiety or acid reflux. My only regret is that i didn't do it sooner.
@@SilVia-hs2kb after 22 yrs doing hair i want to change my career but have no clue what to do! I can’t deal with people anymore
@@arlenevaldes2165 my only advice is to start planning out your exit. Life is too short for this nonsense. I wish you good luck!
@@arlenevaldes2165 22 years for me too. I'm starting school in January to get my degree. I'm walking away as I'm done.
Feels amazing to know that I am not alone.
I have been doing hair for 30yrs. and quit 6 months ago.Searched out these videos because i felt alone .I don;t know what to do now((
Customers of the service industry confuse being serviced with being their servants.
Thank you for sharing your story, I have been a hairdresser for 8 years, I am wanting to leave the industry and can relate to this so much! Happy to know I am not alone in feeling this way 😊
Oh you and me both girl! I can totally understand how you feel. It's a bitter sweet feeling, it's fun to be creative and see how happy people can be with a new look. However, it's also physically demanding and isn't very appreciated. In my opinion, stepping aside from hairdressing has been the best decision, again for ME. I enjoy it recreationally, as it's a life long skill. I hope that whatever you decide, you're happy and content :) wishing you the best!
YOU MADE MY DAY!! Loved this video. I actually just do hair on the side now from home. Its just way ridiculous nowadays especially you have to be a therapist, videographer, photographer , tik tok’er .. etc.. you have to look your best all the time and compete with everyone else in the biz, its a cut throat biz! I paid 20K for my program it did not prepare me for anything I’ve experienced in the last 15 years as a cosmetologist..too much work..and yes People really suck and yes its always someone driving a bentley or maserati in my area..I’m much happier NOW since I went back to working my Nights at the Hospital.
I was a hairdresser for many years and left due to having breast cancer and lymph node removal which affected my arm. I was out of hairdressing for quite a few years then went back into it at the age of 54, I'm nearly 56 now and I can honestly say I am absolutely wrecked with it and need to step back out of it, its changed a lot over the years, the physical and mental demands have taken their toll on me, hairdressing is a rewarding but stressful job
I'm so sorry to hear about your illness Mandy. You're one strong woman 💕 it's terrible to hear that hairdressing has negatively contributed to your illness also. I hope that you're taking care of yourself. I think it's admirable that you went back into hairdressing in the end. However, you're right, hairdressing is a physically demanding job and definitely isn't appreciated the way it should be. Wishing you all the best , thank you for commenting 💕
Totally agree with everything you said. I’ll also add that the hours are not structured or ethical. Clients will ask you to show up at the crack of dawn because they have an event to go to or an airplane to catch early in the day and they’ll also ask you to work overtime and stay past closing hours for them. There’s been so many instances where I’ve left the salon at 9:30 at night and have had to commute an hour back home, only to show up back at the salon at 9 am the next morning.
Glad you spoke on this. I can relate. Especially in more high end salon, the people were the worst. They are so entitled and don't even show decency as youre doing their hair service.
Thank you for sharing your story. I also recently quit my hair career of 3 years. I just felt like the money was not there for me and I had been in 7 different salons environment and 5 out of 7 of them are very toxic. It makes me sad thinking that you join a salon and you expect everyone to respect together and get along but no, they would rather trash one another. I also lost the passion for it as well. I don't know if you feel this way too but as of right now, i feel ashame and a failure for quitting hair. I got my certification and license and I am not doing it anymore. I don't know how to get rid of the shame that I am feeling.
Thats how I feel honestly right now. Most everyday I go work, I am inside depress and lost the passion because its hard to achieve the results for clients, and some of the clients are super rude towards me and behind my back (of what I heard they say about me)(I'm only 20) It utterly destroy me every time. Its very discouraging at this point.
You don't need to feel ashamed! I understand as I felt similar when I quit hairdressing but I can honestly say that I am so much happier doing it as a hobby instead of a career. This feeling will fade! Don't worry, just do your best in any job you have. Things will get better!
Don’t feel bad girly being a hairstylist is seriously exhausting …. You have to do what is best for you ! Just keep up with your license to go to cosmo prof lol
You're not a failure. You may feel down for leaving something you worked towards but, you simply saw what the industry is really like. I'm in the same boat.
so the money wasn’t there? dang
I feel u girl I been doing hair for over ten years I finally just stopped going back to medical assistance at least they appreciate you more when it comes to their health rather than their hair smhh
Hey love, did you end up making about the same as you make as a medical assistant? I’m a ma and wanted to get into doing hair but if it’s not going to pay more there is no point
Appect a lot and tell u they love u and our like family but if your sick that’s it
