wanted to see you as a brunette or a different style of clothing then you usually would wear and offered to pay to change it. Similar to video. I have my first review on hold, I would enjoy seeing her as a brunette.

I just wouldn't do it.
As Popeye would say, "I am what I am and that's all that I am".

Plenty of clients request certain outfits or articles of clothing for an appointment. I've been asked to wear everything from a lingerie in a specific shade of lavender to "heels no higher than 2 inches".  Frankly, I'd be thrilled if a client offered to pay for a specific style that they'd like to see me in.  It would certainly save me a few bucks lol.

But, while asking you to change your hair color (or anything else that isn't easily reversible) isn't exactly *offensive*, I do find it incredibly presumptuous. Our looks are a large part of our marketing, and drastic change of hairstyle could lead to clients feeling mislead when we don't look like our photo. And honestly, a client who felt entitled to even request something like that of me would make me incredibly uncomfortable.  There's a weird power dynamic when you give a client that much control over how you look.  

Now if it's just a matter of you wanting to mix things up, or you just go crazy for redheads when your provider's a brunette-- why not offer to buy her a wig?  You'll get exactly what you're looking for, and she doesn't have to commit to *your* idea of what she should look like.

You made some great points. I never want a woman to feel like I'm trying to have power over her, but again that's why I asked. Thanks for the response AVA!

That was a very fun video ..I would not be offended

Absolutely!  There's almost always a way that everyone can get exactly what they want, if they're willing to talk about it first

It really is a fun video. What they did with this girl amazing. I am constantly debating with my pals, how much beauty is in the world. This is certainly one of those cases.
