Woman leaves salon in tears after bad wig installation
In other 'bad wig' news, Briefly News previously reported on the hilarious story of a lady who was given the short end of the wig at a hair salon. A woman took to social media to share that she paid R650 at a salon for a wig, which she took off as soon as she left.
She left wearing a wig cover with glue on her forehead. The lady shared the video on her TikTok, under her user name @bazizipho_nonie_poswa, attracting 1.1M views, 72K likes and 2.3K comments from social media users who were in disbelief.
The video started with the lady excited as she waited to get her wig installed. It soon showed her with red eyes as she started to realise that the hairstylist did not know what she was doing.
Briefly News spoke to hair stylist Lazaros Sumbane about different methods of cutting hair, particularly wigs. He explained that cutting requires skill to avoid shedding and unevenness of the wig.
"Razor cutting excels at detailing sharp lines and blending."
