Paula is PISSED. And she should be.

This week in the salon, 25 different clients told her the same thing: "I'm a Jane Doe."

From the Cornell scandal - where 7 predators were protected by 50+ people who knew and did NOTHING - to a salon chain in Utah called Bikini Kutz where licensed cosmetologists had to wear bikinis to give $35 haircuts and hire security so men wouldn't follow them to their cars... we're unpacking why salons have become hunting grounds.

If you've ever had a creepy client, a pervy cousin who thinks a scalp massage is erotic, or an MLM hun trying to sell you a dream while the economy burns - this one's for you.

IN THIS SAVAGE EPISODE:

[00:00:00] The Setup: Why Paula is angry this week
[00:01:30] The Cornell 7: 7 predators, 50+ people who knew, and punishment is... an essay?
[00:02:15] BIKINI KUTZ Exposed: The real Utah salon chain where women in bikinis gave haircuts and needed security on the back door
[00:04:30] Jane Doe Movement: Why 25 clients came out in ONE week
[00:05:20] Creepy Client Confessions: "He finds haircuts erotic" and other shit hairdressers actually hear
[00:43:00] MLM Predators & Delulu Culture: How broke hairstylists are being scammed with "manifest your mansion"
[00:47:10] The Closer: Chemical castration, no more essays, and why mommy & daddy can't bail you out anymore

6'1" Is NOT a Kid's Cut: Why Hairdressers Need to Enforce F*cking Boundaries

People don't like boundaries. And that's the problem.

In this raw episode of Shit I Told My Hairdresser, Jason and special guest Paula J Dahlberg get into the Shitology of setting boundaries behind the chair.

We start with a listener DM complaining about all the cussing. Our response? Yes, we fucking do. It's in the title for a reason.

Then we get into the real shit:

IN THIS EPISODE:
[00:00] The Employee Break Room Skit: Why your break room isn't a therapy couch
[01:20] The Cussing Complaint: Why we won't stop cursing for your little ears
[04:00] The TikTok That Pissed Us Off: A mom bitching about barber prices for her 6'1" son
[04:40] The Great Debate: What SHOULD be the cutoff for a kid's haircut? 8 years old (Jason) vs 16 (Paula)
[08:00] Hairapy 101: The psychology behind why moms won't let their kids grow up - and why you have to get "on the outside of the psychology"
[15:00] Raising Your Prices Without Guilt: Why charging what you're worth isn't mean, it's business
[39:00] The 21-Year-Old Human Doll: Paula's client who demanded a kid's price for her 21-year-old son, sat next to him, and HELD HIS HAND during the cut
[41:30] Codependency in the Salon Chair: How to tell a client "get the fuck back to the waiting room" professionally

KEY TAKEAWAY FROM PAULA:
"It's just defining to people that I'm not willing to sacrifice my money, my income for what you believe should be true to yourself."

If you are a hairstylist, barber, salon owner, or independent stylist struggling with:

• how to set boundaries with clients
• when to stop charging kid's prices
• how to raise prices and handle pushback
• how to deal with parents who speak for their adult kids

This episode is your permission slip to enforce the boundary.

YOUR TURN:
What is your cutoff age for a kid's cut? Is it 8 like Jason says - because they're mini adults who can tell you what they want? Or 16? Drop it in the comments on Instagram @shititoldmyhairdresser
