The Usain Bolt method

By theultimatesalonfail - This FML is from back in 2011 but it's good stuff - United States

Today, a girl came into my salon to permanently straighten her really long and curly hair. After several long hours, I went to the counter to charge her. She ran out faster than an Olympic runner. FML

Don't you have the right to call the cops or something?

This comment makes about as much sense to me as Charlie Sheen.

So much money going "out the door"

That's why you always have people prepay for expensive services like that. FYL, but you kinda deserved it.

"That's her officer! The one with the permanently straight hair!"

Hmmm idk! You were workinking there with her for hours and proably had a conversation and learned something about her. You proably got a pretty good idea of whatshe looks like. Call the copa

In my parents country, once you get into a salon they lock the door mainly to keep criminals out, but also to keep people that are getting salon services from leaving without paying.

Can you please permanently straighten mine? I beg you, I won't run out. I'll pay full and some extra. Pretty please? :(

lmaoo I wish I was there to see this. FYL

That's theft...should be able to call the cops. No different than shop lifting. You should be able to give the cops a good description....

That's why you get their name and phone number before booking. You should actually take a ccn first too. That way you can charge no shows a fee as well as thieves.

When we book appointments at our salon, clients must provide a credit card number to secure their appointment. That way, if they no show you or in your case run out on you, you can still charge them.
