The Psychology of Hair
This guest post was written by Ron who blogs over Vent. I found Ron’s blog through Blog Catalog a few months ago and I’m so glad I did. He’s an excellent writer with a great sense of humor and always puts a smile on my face. Ron is an actor, one of his many talents, and has experience in theater and as a make-up artist. He describes his blog as a space were he can vocalize about his own personal observations of life. I have enjoyed my stays over at his blog, so please let’s give a warm welcome Ron as he blogs about The Psychology of Hair.
Unless you’ve actually worked as a cosmetologist, you would never realize that this occupation is 5% styling hair and 95% psychiatry.
It amazes me that cosmetology schools don’t include a basic psychology course as part of their training program.
They don’t even mention the fact that when you get out of school and start working in this profession, you’ll be touching the heads of people who are severely delusional.
I used to have a “magic wand” at my hair styling station for when a client would ask me to cut their hair, which would usually resembled a Chia Pet to look like either a movie star or a super model. I would literally take the wand, tap them on the head and say, “Not unless this wand will produce a miracle.”
My favorite clients where the ones who brought me in about 10 magazine clippings from VOGUE, ALLURE or HARPER’S BAZAAR on how they wanted their hair to look when I got finished with it. The clippings were always professional models who had been air-brushed and digitally mastered. Now, the reality of this was that the client wanted to BE these models. I finally got to the point were I bluntly started telling my clients, “If you decide to bring me in any magazine clippings, please be sure to use white-out on the faces before you show them to me, because I can only cut your hair…not perform cosmetic augmentation.”
Not only is this occupation riddled with unrealistic physical manifestations, but it’s also about having to listen to a clients personal problems. On the average, a stylist will usually see 8-10 people a day. So that’s 8-10 hair services, coupled with 8-10 psychology sessions.
I knew I was getting close to my “swan song” in this business, when one day a client said to me, “I know it’s only been 2 weeks since my last haircut, but I had to get in to see you because I’ve been an emotional mess and needed to talk to you, Ron.”
(oh, you mean…Dr. Ron?)
Finally, that day came when I had a new client who could not make up her mind about how she wanted her hair to look. I cut and blew it dry TWICE. She was a foreigner, so we had a bit of a language barrier, but I had been cutting hair long enough to know when someone shows me with their fingers, just how much length they want cut off. She wasn’t exactly sure what she wanted, so I guess she figured, “Oh, well…let me just see what it looks like at various lengths.
After cutting it for the second time the demon within me SNAPPED!
(I totally lost it)
Without even thinking, I ripped the cutting cape off from around her neck and then grabbed her purse off the counter; handing it to her, saying, “You don’t owe me any money for this appointment, but kindly remove yourself from the salon.”
(she blinked…then blinked again)
All the other stylists in the salon suddenly stopped cutting hair.
(you could hear a pin drop)
She looked at me and said, “Excuse me?”
I reiterated.
She said, “I want hair cut, sir!”
I said, “No, your haircut is finito…bye!”
She looked at me with a stern face and said, “You VERY mean man!”
I looked at her with a smile and said, “Yes, I agree, but you VERY confused woman”
After she left I picked up the phone and called the owners of the salon, giving my two weeks notice.
I let my license expire and never looked back.
However, I HAVE learned something very valuable from this experience.
I would rather eat thumbtacks and glass…than style another head of hair!!!
Hey Ron, I’m very funny about my hair stylist and who cuts my hair. I used to bring in photos until I found a hair stylist who finally got it right. I always stayed with what was possible and didn’t expect her to perform a miracle. As a photographer when I ask to take a person’s photo, they always ask for two things: to make them thin and beautiful. Sometimes I walk away as a joke and say I’m no magician! This was funny and I would have loved to see you dismiss her. Sometimes people ask for it.
Ron I laughed and laughed.
I have to add that they need a unit called “Just because she’s Asian you don’t have to give her a chin length bob, you really don’t”
Especially if she is me and has frizzy hair and any chin length bob makes her look like a mushroom head.
Thanks Natural for sharing Ron with us!
Hey Valerie!
I only wish I had someone video taping this experience while it was happening to me, so I could sell it to Cosmetology School’s as part of their training program on – HOW TO GET RID OF A CLIENT AND END YOUR CAREER IN ONE SECOND.
HAHAHAHAHA!
A haircut is the most important thing, so if you’ve found someone you like and trust… stick with them.

Hi Tracy!
So glad you had a giggle. Looking back, I honestly have to laugh at this experience too. It was like being trapped in a Mel Brooks film.
Your comment made me giggle too because there’s truth to it. Hair type and face shape are the most important things when deciding on a cut.
So nice meeing you Tracy! Thanks for stopping by for a read.

Funny!
“the reality of this was that the client wanted to BE these models.” Probably… and they don’t realize that even the models don’t look like that – it’s been airbrushed to death.
Hi Vered!
Exactly….you said it. Thus the reason for the white-out. Ha!
Thank you for dropping by for a read. Nice to meet you!
Ron´s last blog ..Why I Loved Joan Crawford
To tell you the truth, lately I’ve been so frugal that I cut my own hair- LOL. Actually I cut my boys’ hair too — that is when they let me
.
I’ve had some bad experiences with hair stylists thinking they knew more about what I wanted than them.
Recently though I did a brush on my hair and it looked really good (I was going to sing at a conference).
Your post was funny.
All the best,
Eren
Eren Mckay´s last blog ..Whitney Houston interviewed by Oprah Winfrey my perspective on it all
Hey, did you ever get offended when the client didn’t talk at all after the initial this-is-what-I-want chat? I’m not a chatty gal and when I used to get my hair cut I went mute. I hate small talk.
Like Eren, I now trim my bangs and throw the rest in a ponytail. Yes, I can hear your groans coming all the way from your site.
The last time I got my hair cut I learned from the stylist that she hates it when she sees her client put her hair up in a ponytail as soon as she walks out of the salon.
So that day I waited until I got into my car to put it up.
A fun post, Ron. I’m pleased to make your acquaintance. (And I love Joan Crawford, too. One might say my love borders on obsession, but one should keep one’s opinions to one’s self.)

Hey Ron-
And I was JUST gonna ask you to cut my hair. Take off an inch? Maybe layer it a bit? Or, NO….sweep it up for me…won’t you, doll?
I don’t get why ppl don’t get that whole airbrushing thing…esp. the teens…they’re setting themselves up to feel low self-esteem. For the rest of us, we can assume that 90% of what we see is computer-generated and that automatically means we’re 100% better!
Great post….love learning more about you, Dr. Ron! (AKA Fred Flintstone)
kathryn´s last blog ..I Love You, You’re Perfect….Now-
My stylist calls me to talk! One of the perks of being in the social service/therapy/counseling/whatever business is that we find kindred spirits in hairsylists and bartenders.
It’s all the same job, really.
We get together to “talk shop” about all the crazies we deal with all day long, and if she has a really good “case” she calls me to ask me for advice how to handle it. I love it!
Ron – So glad to see you posting at another site. Loved this post. You should have been charging psych rates for your styling services. It’s funny how certain professions lend themselves to armchair therapy. I think we all get a little delusional when at the hair stylist hoping that we can miraculously change our appearances.
ha! He is a hilarious writer, indeed!
Thumbtacks and glass, eh? I feel that way about my old careers too.
Thanks, both of you for a fun post.

Listen, I’ve gotta tell….I cut my own hair now too! And for the same reason you shared. I would ask for something and get the complete opposite. Now….I get exactly what I ask for – ha! Plus…why pay for something I can do?

Hi Cardiogirl!
No, in fact, I loved when a client wanted to just be quiet and not talk. After talking all day, it was so nice to say nothing.
I was much more relaxed about what a client would do with their hair after I cut it. Have the time they wanted to leave the salon with damp hair and go home and style it themselves. Which was totally ok with me.
Pleased to make your acquaintance too. Anyone who loves Joan as much as me is the BOMB! Thank you for stopping by for a read.

Hiya Kathryn!
No…after reading this post I don’t think you would want me to even touch your hair – HAHAHAHAHHAHA! Actually, I do still cut a few friends hair when they ask. I enjoy it more now that I don’t do it for a career. Cutting was my favorite thing to do.
It’s so true what you shared about computer-generated images. There is so much they can do even with magazine photos now-a-days, that nothing we see is 100% real.
Thanks so much for stopping by Val’s for a read. You’re a sweetie!

Hey Jen!
awww…thank you. So glad you enjoyed, my friend!
“You should have been charging psych rates for your styling services.”….EXACTLY. And I use to laugh when they would complain that I charged only $22.00 for a haircut and blow dry, considering that most psych rates start at $100.00 an hour. And that’s without a haircut – HA!

Ron, you are so crazy. I could just picture you doing this. Not sure if I like the “finito” or magic wand better!

Hi Valerie and Hellooo Ronnie,
May all the cosmetlogy courses be warned by the great Ronaldo ! Kids, you are going to deal with all sorts of people, and not all nice and smiling. An an undecided client is not good news at all, because if the end result does not please, all the blame goes to the poor hairdresser who only tried to satisfy the customer.
BTW; This lady was such a pain, you did the right thing to kick her out !! Really !
When I’m undecided, I ask my hairdresser ” what would be best for my face shape?”Going on a professional angle and not copying the stars.Sometimes my hair dresser will suggest styles, and I will decide.And only I.
Nice discovering Valerie’s blog and a great post, Ronnie.
Hugs to ya buddy xxxxxx
barbara´s last blog ..La Basse-ville- Lower town of Quebec city
Hi, Ron! Fun to see you here! So, listen. I’m one of those messed up women. When I started seeing a new stylist, I wound up crying in the chair because I hated my hair so much. She must have taken those psychology classes because she listened to what I was saying in between my blubbering and then told me “If you listen to me, you will love your hair. Start growing it out. You have to trust me. Come back in a month and I will shape it up. Then let it grow longer. Trust me. Trust me. Trust me.” I did and I couldn’t be happier with my hair right now. It has its days when it wants to be wiry, but for the most part, my curls are like my signature piece.
What was my point? Oh, yeah. A good stylist is hard to find. One who puts up with crying customers should have monuments erected in their honor.

“…because if the end result does not please, all the blame goes to the poor hairdresser who only tried to satisfy the customer.”
You said it, Barb!
That’s the thing….undecided on the right style should be something both the client and stylist discuss, but ultimately it’s the client who decides. Amen!

YAAAAAY…I love hairstyling story with a happy ending!
“A good stylist is hard to find”
You are soooooo correct! And the word TRUST is the key. The relationship between stylist and client is like any close relationship. Communication.
And BTW, Kathy….I LOVE your hair! Curly hair was always my favorite hair to cut.
Thanks so much for stopping by, Kathy!

Ron — Are you kidding me? I always thought curly hair must be the worst for a stylist to cut. I love you!

Hey Kathy!
No…I’m not kidding. The most challenging type hair for me to cut was always the stick-straight, coarse hair.
Curly hair is the BOMB!

Ron´s last blog ..Manifestation and The Secret
Ron,
Having just spent the last four years of my life in Korea, I can certainly relate to the frustrations experienced by the poor lady with the language barrier (though the frustration on your part is also more than understandable), but I don’t really like her approach.
When I was in Korea, none of the hairdressers in my town spoke any real form of English, and I just had to sit down on the chair and hope for the best. One of the things I found in this situation was that they tended to err on the side of caution, and whilst the haircuts which I received were not quite as short as I would have liked, they were certainly OK.
When you are a foreigner in another country, you have to learn to be flexible with regard to things like this, and if I were in her shoes, I would have just settled for whatever length you gave her the first time – or at least the second time.
Andrew´s last blog ..Back home/back online!
Hi Andrew!
Nice to meet you!
“When you are a foreigner in another country, you have to learn to be flexible with regard to things like this..”
I agree because I too spent three months living in Asia (Japan) and realistically knew that I had to sit down and hope for the best. However, I did end up getting a good cut, even though it may not have been exactly what I wanted.
In this particular situation I could sense the client was confused about what she wanted (on top of the language barrier), so it made all the more frustrating.
Honestly, I was at a point in my career when I was losing patience and knew it was time to quit. So, she actually assisted me in the best decision.
Thank you for stopping by for a read, Andrew! Enjoy your weekend!

well, it took me 3 minutes to figure out where I was supposed to comment, not thinking there might be something ABOVE the post! Wow thought I, very cool….and then I scrolled for days and thought this is the last time I wait to post a comment on one of your “away ” posts…phew…
this was a great post…and oh so true…I have not changed stylists in 25 years so we know each other very well but sometimes I am shocked at what people come in for or what they say or ask for…he has no life nor any other customers according to these people…I totally understand why you quit…what a client from hell she was! unfortunately so are lots of others….

However, in all honesty….I had MANY wonderful clients too – some of who, actually became good friends!

An interesting post. I have to admit, I’m not a part of that world. I don’t really “do” much with my hair & maybe get it cut once every 2 years (to donate to Locks of Love.) I’ve always been confused about the process, I think. To me, I’m there to get a haircut. To the stylist, I’m there to talk about all kinds of things, both personal & not. I just don’t get the process, I guess.

Hi Lana!
That’s so wonderful! The husband of a good friend of mine also donates his hair to Locks of Love! In fact, last year she shared a post about it on her blog.
What you shared about your feelings on client/stylist is pretty much what it is.
It’s a shared experience that can be very enjoyable, yet sometimes challenging.

Hi Valerie,
Thank you for introducing us to Ron.
I had the opposite problem. I was going to a stylist and all SHE did was talk about her love life. I remember her waving the scissors over my head, telling me how mad she was at her ex, and then swooping down to cut a lock or two.
I was like “Woah, girl” Let’s talk about your love life AFTER you cut my hair.
The experience was too much for me and I never went back.

I can totally understand what you mean because I worked with SEVERAL stylists who were the same way as you described your experience. All they did was talk about themselves.

Great story, Ron. Most of us in retail wish we say that to the difficult customers. I do say it under my breath sometimes.
I have a good, old friend who has been giving me trims for over 20 years now. She rarely gets me in trouble with the missus any more over too short hair. I hated my curly hair as a boy, but love it now. Especially now that its ok stylewise to let it go a little wild.

Maybe as a guy, I’m not too bother by how a hair cut will turn out as long as the stylist don’t just shave my hair bald. If I did get a good haircut, I appreciated the stylist and if I didn’t, I’ll just have to wait for the next hair cut.

Huh, that is some story my boy! You really was mean, but I understand that sometimes we all need something changed in our life. There is nothing more disturbing than doing something for living that we hate so much. Many of us are in such jobs that can be only hated by everyone, but sometimes there is no other way. But if only an occasion to drop that torment occurs – catch it and go doing something more pleasant and useful. You did the right thing stepping out of there.
I think passion with hair is absolutely essential – all too often I think hair dressers treat it like a job – rather than an art!
This was sooooo funny!

I totally agree with Ron about hairdressers being psychiatrists!!! This has been happening since my first hairdresser visit as a child and I felt that they were grossly underpaid! Well, in Malaysia anyway…..Even masseuses’ are psychiatrists these days and I speak from experience. LOL.
Hi Big Pumpkin!
I think what it is with occupations such as hairstyling, massage therapy and any type of occupation where you “touch” someone, seems to naturally open up people to freely talk, because they’re more “personal” occupations where the client and stylist/masseuse connect quickly, which can actually be very enjoyable. However, it can also be very draining because of the amount of clients one sees in a day. Some stylists it doesn’t seem to affect as much. I, on the other hand, began to find it too draining. So, I think it’s best that I left cosmetology when I did.
Here in the U.S. hair stylists can make very good money, but it just takes time.
