Hair Dye Gone Wrong claim achieves settlement of £5250.00

Martyn Trenerry a Member of Mullis & Peake LLP and head of the Litigation and Personal Injury Department recently achieved a settlement of £5250.00 for Miss Charlotte Jones for damaged caused to her hair by a Nottingham hair Salon.

As recently reported on Daybreak and in the Daily Telegraph, Miss Jones attended the salon to have her brown hair bleached a caramel blonde colour similar to Nicole Richie’s. She underwent 11 hours of treatment including five separate bleaching treatments, the first of which turned her hair orange.

The final result was that she ended up with hair that was frazzled and straw like and she said that she ‘looked like a scarecrow’. Miss Jones hair also fell out in clumps. Miss Jones was advised by a specialist to shave her hair completely off to allow it to re-grow from scratch. Some two years later Miss Jones hair has now re-grown to shoulder length.
