Caveat Emptor When It Comes to Hair
A woman is suing the posh John Barrett salon for $150,000 over "considerable hair damage." But ladies who lunch, don't worry - it wasn't John Barrett or any of his regular hairstylists who gave the woman a "fright wig" style hairdo. The customer, Maria Torres, who works for the Department of Housing, had a hair treatment with a training program three years ago. And three years later, it's still giving her a bad hair day! The John Barrett Salon says Torres signed a release and "knew it was a training program." While Gothamist can sympathize with someone who has a traumatizing hair cut (it does take about 24-48 hours to adjust), you are totally playing with fire when you go to those training nights.
And for John Barrett himself to cut your hair, it'll cost you $400. If anyone has had him cut your hair, we imagine that is some fine 'do.




Dear Sir,
Will you please shave Jessica
Simpson's hair bald and donate hair to
sick sick children whom they lost their
hair twice to Cancer disease and Chemo-
tharpy disease and Luckmia d i s e ase
at St. Judes hospital Okay Sir thankyou
sign a friend.
Whether it was the John Barrett Salon's fault or not, everyone has a "bad hair day", and if she signed a release, knowing it was a "training program", I hope the ruling isn't in her favor. The release is a legal document signed by the Plaintiff and should be treated as such.
What a rediculous woman, bad hair days can be blamed on anything, hormones, weather static as wel as products etc, I hope this silly woman is laughed out of the court and fines for wasting court time
