Shauna Higgins' head was left bleeding and covered in bald spots after the treatment
A woman claims she was left bald and covered in painful blisters after paying £1300 for botched hair extensions at a Scots salon.
The process sees hair extensions integrated with a customer's own hair and connected to a mesh hairpiece placed at the root of the hair. "Less than a week later the mesh hairpiece and extensions were loose and hanging onto my head by two or three strands of hair. It started pulling at my scalp due to the weight of all the extensions."
"Then my scalp started to bleed and blister. I had huge red patches where the mesh had been pulling on my skin. Every day more bald patches were appearing. Shauna added: "Mandy has caused me a lot of physical and emotional pain. I don't want to see another person go through that.
