Hairdressers can be frustrating -- moving between coasts as I do -- half the year I like it -- but I haven't found a west coast one yet.
When I backpacked in other countries, I gave up and cut it myself. Try to tell someone when you don't speak the language and styles are so different. -- Even to buy a band aid became a real experience - unless I found a blackmarket stall where I could point. It was a lot of fun!!

I have a similar problem with hairdressers. I don't speak their language very well and have trouble putting into words what I want. I had a long conversation with my last hairdresser and basically asked her for tips and recommendations on how to communicate my needs better. I got some great feedback from her and have been a happy camper since.
