my card machine wasn’t working back in November and I told my client could I send my details to her later for a transfer as I was in a rush. She was fine with that and I trusted her as she’s been my client for some time now. Never will I make this mistake again with trust because you give people an inch and they take a mile. She initallly sent me a message the next day asking me to send my details which I thought was honest and trustworthy of her, as soon as I did that along with the amount I haven’t heard a peep. She still hasn’t paid, I have sent a text to remind her I haven’t received payment and get the feeling she is simply ignoring me now! I find it strange that she reminded me then ghosted me, so all I can think of is it’s the amount she wasn’t expecting and is avoiding paying. We normally do a toner and cut, and this last time she wanted to go lighter throughout and she has a lot of hair. I did full head highlights toner cut and finish and I charge £162 for this. It shouldn’t have been a surprise as this is stated on freshsa and she’s known the price for weeks since booking. It’s a shame because it’s broken my trust and I won’t be trusting any client with this again. Pay when I’m there watching them because who knows how much money I could lose in the future if this happens again. It’s made quite a big dent in my wages. Does anybody have any advice on what my next steps should be to take it further and retrieve this money? Thanks! Sophie x
