A woman was left in tears and dismay after salon hairstylists failed to execute her desired hairstyle.
Woman shows failed finger waves hairdo
A TikTok video shared by Lee Jongisa @lee.jongisa shows her sitting nervously in her seat at the salon as two hairstylists do various treatments and styling to try to produce a finger waves hairdo.
“Finger waving is the shaping or moulding of hair while wet into an S-shaped curve with the fingers and a comb. Because of the nature of the style, it works best on fine, straight, or relaxed hair textures,” explains Alvarez on Harper's Bazaar.
In the clip, Lee is seen getting her hair relaxed, washed, combed, trimmed, moisturised with a thick white mouse and covered with a durag before revealing her hair in strange, protruding waves instead of neat, flat ones.
"I sat there and just cried. They told me to trust the process ," a heartbroken Lee shared.
