Background: a close friend of mine is a stylist who used to be very talented. Nothing that particularly blew me away, but always did a great job on cuts/colors with my hair. When she offered to do my hair for my wedding (which my fiancé and I are paying for unassisted), I said yes.
Dilemma: Since then, she stopped working at her salon and moved on to a barber shop because she found women's hair salons too catty and female clients too needy/exhausting - very understandable in my opinion. However, since this move, I have seen a major decline in focus and quality. She has dyed my hair twice since she moved salons and both times were disappointing. More notably, I want to move towards a very deep brown/purple hue for my wedding and in the process of stripping my hair and dying over it, large portions of my hair were an unsightly greenish-turqoise color. She said she had NO idea how it happened, charged me more than my normal salon charges me, and did not offer to fix it.
Now, I know that hair color and hair styling are not the same, but I don't want to rely on her for my hair on such a special occasion - how do I tell her I no longer want her to do my hair for the wedding?
