Hairstylist nabs customer badmouthing her

Meanwhile, Legit.ng reported that a beautiful hairstylist has cried out on TikTok after seeing hurtful messages on her customer's phone. In a trending video, the hairstylist caught her client saying bad things to her friend about her hairdo whilst still in the salon.

The lady complained bitterly to her friend that the hairstylist was bad at her job, and she couldn't wait to leave the salon. The lady further mentioned that the stylist added way too much 'pink colour' to the hair, and she doesn't like it.

"I hate my hair. She put way too much pink. It's soo ugly, omg ima leaveee. I don't like it at all", she said in part.
