i agree that their attitude according to your description is not so polite. but then, I thought that is usual because I've experienced those kinda attitudes at several places already...and I was like you too..
but honestly, do you think u were asking too many questions..like "ask front ask back"? because I like to try different hair salons, and when I first step into a salon, I always ask "hi, may I ask how much is _____"? and then the person there would always answer me in an impatient way making me look like I asked a cheap question, or they would just say..it's not expensive.
I thought any salon does not want to tell you the price before hand...and thy get pissed when you directly ask them how much their prices are (unless they have a list). but then, to those salons out there....getting a haircut is like eating a meal, we need to know how much it costs before we order!!
to be honest
they are not the most polite ppl in the world
but how creditable are you calling them 八婆 in the public ?
i am not saying what they do is right
maybe they are busy ?
I went there once ages ago, and it was the most horrible hairstyle I've ever had in my life! (the worst thing is I had to go back to HK to get Adult ID a month later)
