Fantastic Sams Sucks in Keller Texas

Word on the street is that Fantastic Sam's Sucks.  My friend's daughter went there to get her hair dyed blonde on the back part of her head, and the stylist did such a bad job that the girl got second degree burns on her head, neck, and ears!  How ridiculous is this?!

Now her hair is falling out and she has a bald patch on the back of her head, and she is in pain from the burns.

Her parents have taken her to a doctor who prescribed her pain medication and medicated anti bacterial burn cream for her scalp, and they have also taken her to a dermatologist.

When the mother took the daughter back to the salon to show the manager and the stylist what had happened, the stylist had a non caring attitude, like it was no big deal.

This 15 year old girl has had plenty of pain & suffering, and continues to suffer through the pain daily.  The family hopes that her scalp will heal and that her hair will grow back.

The dermatologist says it will be at least two months for this to heal.

This poor girl used money she got from her birthday to get her hair done by a professional.  This should not have happened.

The family is now seeking legal help & advice.  If you are an attorney and would like to take this case, leave a comment and your contact information and I will pass it on to the family.

TG Daily - Firefox 3.1 beta 1: Damn, this thing is fast!.

First Look Review – Installing and running Firefox 3.1 beta 1 is a revealing experience. Just like Chrome reminded us a few weeks ago, the basics of a browser matter. While Microsoft is figuring out new proprietary features for Internet Explorer 8, Apple, Google and Chrome have been working on the browser foundation and made their software much more nimble. The speed improvements that have been made in less than a year are nothing short of amazing. We have been using Firefox 3.1 beta 1 for a day now and we have come to two conclusions: We refuse to go back to a previous version and Microsoft’s Internet Explorer is in deep trouble.
