A Polite Rebuttal, And Reassurance
Hi! My name is Amy, and I work at Enid's. If you visit us, you will most likely meet me (I'm the redhead :) ) I helped the young lady "Very Unknown" who wrote the previous review, and I am sorry that she wasn't satisfied with her purchase, but I would like to clarify the nature of the sale.
This young lady wanted a long, straight, very pale blonde wig. She picked out a couple styles to try on and I brought out the color swatches for them, since we didn't have very pale blondes in stock for those wigs. One of the wigs had two pale blonde colors that it came in; i pulled out other wigs by that brand that we had in those colors and we tried both on. Neither suited her, so we looked at the colors that the other one came in and she found a color she liked. I showed her the price in the book and she agreed to it. Since it was a Saturday, when the manufacturers are not available, I told her we'd call her on Tuesday, when we opened again, to make sure the manufacturer had that color in stock.
Unfortunately, that brand did not have the wig she wanted in that color. I gave her a call to come in again and we looked at a couple of other different wigs in the manufacturers' catalogs. She really liked the color of a 3/4 hairpiece (not a full wig) that we had on display, so I looked for a wig with that company first, but they had nothing in that color that was the style that she wanted. So, we looked at the other brand and found a nice style. I brought it out in the brown/blonde color we had in stock at the time so she could try on the style. Then I brought out the color swatches and found a blonde that the wig came in. I showed her the swatch next to the 3/4 hairpiece she liked and she agreed that it was a very good match. I showed her the price in the book and she agreed. She paid the majority of the price and I put that wig on order.
The next Tuesday, that wig came in and so did this young lady. My coworker Ashlee put the wig on her and showed her how she could integrate it with her own hair. The young lady had brought along her boyfriend and both he and she expressed their approval of the wig. Enid, who was cutting a wig for a customer in the other styling chair, asked the young lady if she needed the length or bangs cut. The girl said no, that it was fine the way it was. She came up to me at the register and paid her remaining balance, and then she left. As far as we knew, she was satisfied.
At 10:00 the next morning, as soon as we opened, she came back in with the wig. I was unable to be there until 10:30 that morning, so it was Ashlee and Enid who dealt with her, but the account they gave me was this: that the young lady came in acting very agitated and said that the color was wrong and that we had cheated her on the price. Like I mentioned above, I had showed her the color against the other hairpiece she liked, and she had agreed to it, so there was nothing we could do about that. Ashlee brought out the catalog that had her wig in it to check the price, but it was listed as the same price that I had previously told the girl. She might have confused the price with the first wig we ever tried on, which was $40.00 less, but she had seen and consented to pay the price of this other wig, so there was nothing we could do about that either. Since she had worn the wig out, and had it overnight, we could not grant her a return (legally, sanitation law prevents it, and it says so on our triplicate receipts). She left the wig on the counter and left heatedly.
At Enid's we work very hard to satisfy our customers and to help them feel confident with the wigs they buy. I hope that my account of the situation will clarify things, and to reassure you that Enid, myself, and my two co-workers do everything in our means to provide you with lots of options, fair and upfront prices, and eager, friendly service.
We're excited to see you!
