I have the opposite problem…I think my hairdresser is trying to break up with me 😭

I told my hairdresser that when she decided to back to working in a salon, rather than coming to my home, I wouldn’t be going to her anymore. She was lovely about it, said she totally understood my reason and thanked me for my custom. It was absolutely fine. Good luck, I’m sure it will be for you too.

Do you go to her or her come to you? If I was you I would just compromise and don’t get it cut as regular she might ask why then you can tell her your just trying to economise.

I agree.. just tell her that you really appreciate her as a hairdresser but the cost is no longer possible now that your circumstances have changed.. of course she won't be offended.. she must know you very well by now..

I think you should be honest with her and explain your situation. As you have been such a loyal customer, and the fact that she is a friend of your son and his wife, she may offer a compromise. You could go less frequently, or just have a wet cut, rather than a cut & blow dry? I hope it works out for you.

I would tell her the truth. You have been a loyal customer for a long time. She will want to know and will be pleased you are changing for purely financial reasons. She may even offer to do your hair in her spare time for a lower price. Definitely tell her the truth.

I have had my hair cut by the same girl for the last 27 years. She is excellent, and has always charged a little more than other hairdressers, which, while my husband and I had our business, was absolutely fine. However, my husband passed four years ago, and although I am not pleading poverty, I cannot warrant paying her fee. She has just put it up again, and I’ve worked it out that over a year i would be paying about £11.50 per week! The awkward thing is that she is best friends with my son and his wife….. Any suggestions how I can tell her in a polite friendly way that I am not going to her any more? Many thanks
