11 Things Only Hairstylists Understand

These problems only hairstylists will understand...


Stylist: "So how is your dog Wendy doing these days?"

Client: "I once had a fish named Fred... Is that what you are talking about?"

Stylist: "....Yes?"

2. "I want my hair to look voluminous, but without the volume."

Yes, and I want a unicorn to feed me strawberries while floating on a magical, sparkly lake....

3. Taking off gloves after coloring and realizing there was old color inside

Well, now my pretty pink manicure looks like mustard stains... fantastic!

4. Talking over a hairdryer

Just smile and nod, lets just hope she didn't just tell you her grandpa died last week.

5. Cutting a fidgety clients' hair

If you don't sit still now I will cut a piece of your hair and call it an 'accident'. Do I have your attention now?

6. "I cut my own hair"


Yes, we can tell...The worst part of this situation is when they think it actually looks good.

7.When the client refuses to believe a picture is Photoshoped

Stylist: "This picture is edited."

Client: "Yes, I want my hair to look like this."

Stylist: *sighs*

8. Trying to bring more color into your wardrobe


Everything you buy is black, or some variation on black. And if bleach lightens some part of our favorite shirt the black Sharpie will come out!

9. Doing our makeup and hair on an off day is a big nope!

Why do we want to go through all that trouble, we'll be hiding from the world anyway.

10. Seeing a client outside of the salon

Even when you did a great job on their hair, it is still a little awkward to say hello...

11. Removing all the little hairs stuck in your shirts and bras

How did it even get there? Needless to say, baby powder is our favorite thing. (Also a teasing brush, it works like magic)

In honor of Mother’s Day, I have been thinking of all the things my mom does for my family and me. Although I couldn’t write nearly all of them, here are a few things that moms do for us.

They find that shirt that’s right in front of you, but just you can’t seem to find.

Take the time to thank that one friend in your life you will never let go of.

Thank You on wooden blocks

1. Thank you for being the one I can always count on to be honest.

A true friend will tell you if the shirt is ugly, or at least ask to borrow it and "accidentally" burn it.

2. Thank you for accepting me for who I am.

A best friend will love you regardless of the stale french fries you left on the floor of your car, or when you had lice in 8th grade and no one wanted to talk to you.

Do as I say, not as I do.

Your eyes widen in horror as you stare at your phone. Beads of sweat begin to saturate your palm as your fingers tremble in fear. The illuminated screen reads, "Missed Call: Mom."

Growing up with strict parents, you learn that a few things go unsaid. Manners are everything. Never talk back. Do as you're told without question. Most importantly, you develop a system and catch on to these quirks that strict parents have so that you can play their game and do what you want.

"Friends" maybe didn’t have everything right or realistic all the time, but they did have enough episodes to create countless reaction GIFs and enough awesomeness to create, well, the legacy they did. Something else that is timeless, a little rough, but memorable? Living away from the comforts of home. Whether you have an apartment, a dorm, your first house, or some sort of residence that is not the house you grew up in, I’m sure you can relate to most of these!
