Tearfulness got me!

Hi everyone! Second year in , on the Abigale estradiol and norethindrone tabs (1mg/.5 mg). I’m feeling better mentally but due to a rough patch w my significant other , I’ve been tearful on and off. Today I went for a haircut and highlights, and i felt so overwhelmed by the questions (“do you want cool or warm, bright or light, rooted or not”) that I teared up (the questions came after I showed a pic of the color and cut I wanted). And when the stylist saw that I teared up, she said she needed to check on something and went to (what I suppose was) the back room , leaving me there for around 7 minutes, which felt like a long time. When she returned she said she wouldn’t do my hair bc I made her feel uncomfortable. I totally understand her perspective, bc who wants to risk a client being unhappy! But at the same time, I felt humiliated and let down. I have never experienced something like this and I’m wondering if this is gonna be the norm going forward. Thanks in advance for letting me share!
