Woman mortified as hairdresser posts embarrassing before and after picture of her hair

A woman was mortified after her hairdresser posted an embarrassing "before" picture of her hair on social media.

Gabbi Watkinson shared the before and after transformation on TikTok, which saw her tangled, brunette 'do have a makeover.

In the video, which has since been viewed more than one million times, Gabbi shared a screen recording of the voice notes her friends sent her in response to what her hair looked like before she'd had the trim.

Whilst one pal said she looked like a "tramp", another said she looked like she'd been on "bed rest" for years.

Gabbi admitted that she had just rolled out of bed before going to the hairdressers, as she said: "Imagine rolling over in bed and seeing that."

Gabbi added the caption to the video: "Thinking about the time my hairdresser put a before and after pic of me on Instagram," as she joked she "wanted to die lol".

Since being posted, the video has racked up more than 100,000 likes and 2,400 comments from people who were horrified

One person said: "IS THAT REAL?"

Another viewer commented: "Wait what I wasn't expecting it to be that bad."

Whilst a third said: "I am crying."

The 'after' (gabbiwatkinson/Tiktok)

This comes after a woman claims she left the hairdressers with hair that was in "worse condition" than when she arrived.

Instead of feeling like she's walked off the set of a L'Oreal 'Because You're Worth It' advert, TikTok user @_coco_04xo was mortified that her hair looked nothing like what she wanted.

She said that she showed her stylist a picture of her hair back in 2019 when she had a honey-hued balayage, and explained that she wanted to recreate the look.

But instead, she was left with orange-tinted lengths and chunky roots - take a look here.
