Two years ago, a 14-year-old girl walked into a location of a large hair salon chain in Florida with her heart set on having her brown strands dyed blue.
The result? According to legal papers filed in a civil lawsuit, the young girl left the salon with third-degree burns on a blistering scalp.
Her attorney, alleges that his young client has undergone two skin grafts and must have at least one more to deal with the damage caused by the bad color job. According to the attorney, the young girl’s parents have had medical expenses in excess of $85,000 for the damage done by the dye to their daughter’s scalp and hair.
