SHE had been eagerly waiting for this appointment for several months – but rather than a new set of healthy locks, Harpy Darpp left the salon looking like a stripy zebra.
After years of using harsh bleach to make her hair lighter, Harpy finally realised her once healthy locks had been completely damaged and it was time to give her hair some break.
For a year, the young woman didn’t touch any dyes, harsh chemical products and took extra care, applying masks and ditching heat.
”I was taking medication – I was doing everything to heal my hair,” she shared the story on TikTok.
Then, just before her family holiday to Germany, Harpy’s mum gifted her the ultimate present – a flight to New York where she’d see an expert specialising in bringing ruined hair back to life.
