When I went to the hairdresser, my stylist pointed out the pimples on my face and suggested a mask. I felt very uncomfortable because I didn’t want something like that to be discussed in front of everyone. What should I do, how can I overcome this situation? Do you think it’s normal for them to behave like this?
Something similar happened to me too, the hairdresser was commenting on my skin type while I was getting my eyebrows done. I felt uncomfortable when I said that, but they stopped ![]()
So, did you say something to the hairdresser at that moment? Did you do it in front of everyone?
@kahvebitmeden yes, they said it in front of everyone. As I said, I was really uncomfortable, but I couldn’t say anything at that moment, I was in shock ![]()
@aklimkaldi being shocked and staying silent isn’t the solution; I think you should have just said ‘I don’t want to talk about this’ straight away. After all, you’re a hairdresser, not a dermatologist.
In matters like this, it’s become a habit for some hairdressers to recommend products based on skin issues. Politely decline the advice; if you have a skin problem, don’t listen to anyone other than a dermatologist.
I think you’ve unnecessarily complicated things for yourself.
You’re angry about this now, but maybe they suggested something with good intentions? After all, they must have done it to be helpful, do we need to look for bad intentions here?
@pazardandondum good intentions are one thing, but discussing people’s personal problems in front of everyone is very wrong, even if they are suggesting medications.
Next time you need to warn me directly, saying “let’s talk about these things privately.” They won’t push it anyway, the main issue is setting the boundary. ![]()
