In this episode, we’re diving into the real cost of poor customer service and tight hairstyles and how to advocate for yourself at the salon. Many of us have sat through painful braids, ponytails, or sew-ins, trusting that "beauty is pain"—but at what cost? We’ll discuss traction alopecia, how constant pulling damages hair follicles, and why speaking up to your hairdresser isn’t just about comfort—it’s about protecting your hair health. Whether it’s setting boundaries, recognizing early signs of hair loss, or learning safer styling alternatives, this episode is all about taking control of your hair journey before it’s too late. Tune in to learn how to keep your edges intact while still serving looks!
