My Wednesday client showed up with a TikTok haircut request.

Now I'm seeing this every week.

Changing the game" seems a bit dramatic for haircuts.

Man, I just saw a piece on the news about this. They were talking about how TikTok trends are blowing up so fast that salons can't keep up. It's like every week there's some new chop or color that goes viral overnight. I remember reading how some stylists have to learn these cuts on the fly, which sounds stressful. Honestly, it must be wild trying to meet client expectations when the reference is a 15-second video with a weird filter. This trend is really changing the game for hair professionals, and not always in a good way.

Totally get this. Had a client bring in a filtered photo for a workout plan and got upset when real life results didn't match. It puts pros in a tough spot trying to manage those expectations.
