Around December 2024, I began a hair transition process at Aspire Salon, where Eva originally worked, understanding that it would be a gradual process. During the first two sessions at Aspire Salon, I trusted Eva's professional advice and showed her the style I hoped to achieve. Eva reassured me that it would take a few sessions to get to my desired look, and I agreed to follow her guidance. Given that I have always had healthy, long hair, I was cautious about making drastic changes, but Eva insisted that this would be the "safest" route.
Although my hair wasn't exactly as I envisioned after the first two sessions, I remained patient and hopeful, trusting that the final outcome would be worth it. However, during the final session in December 2024 at APRIMA Salon, Eva's actions caused catastrophic damage. Not only did she burn and damage my hair, but she also had to cut about half the length of my hair due to the extent of the damage. As I ran my hands through my hair, large amounts of it fell out, leaving me devastated. I was overwhelmed with emotion, crying uncontrollably, and in complete shock. Even Eva's coworker at Apria was visibly stunned by the damage done.
Since that traumatic day, I have been struggling with severe emotional and mental distress. The sight of my hair falling out in clumps every time I shower or brush it has caused me significant anxiety. A portion of my hair has been burned off, leaving me with a small section of bangs that are too short to style. The physical damage is heartbreaking, but the emotional and psychological toll has been far more severe. I feel embarrassed, ashamed, and deeply self-conscious. This experience has affected my mental health in profound ways, leaving me anxious, depressed, and fearful.
Although Eva has sent me voicemails and text messages offering free treatments to "fix" the damage, these offers have done little to resolve the lasting emotional and physical impact. I am now reaching out to you for legal guidance in exploring my options for pursuing a claim against Eva and Apria Salon for the harm caused. I have endured immense emotional, mental, and physical suffering, and I am seeking a resolution that acknowledges the profound pain and distress I have experienced.
I would like to add Eva was very kind and sweet which has been the reason I have not wanted to post anything u til now. It has now been about 8 months and my hair still isn't healed. The amount of pain I have endured during this time, I wouldn't wish upon anyone. read more
