**🚨 Ladies, hear me out ! Beauty Parlor Stroke Syndrome is Real — And It Could Kill You 🚨**
*By Pinky Prof *

Let me break this down real simple for you.
You think getting your hair washed at the salon is just another part of being bougie and looking good?
WRONG.
There’s something called **Beauty Parlor Stroke Syndrome**, and it’s not just some made-up medical term to scare women into staying home and doing their own damn hair.
This stuff is *real*, and it could literally kill you.
Yeah, I said it. 💀
### 💡 What is Beauty Parlor Stroke Syndrome?
It’s when you’re laying back in that chair—looking all cute, getting your scalp massaged—and BAM.
Your neck is hyperextended over that hard sink edge like you’re auditioning for a Marvel villain pose.
And while you’re there thinking about what lunch you’re gonna eat after your manicure, your vertebral artery is screaming for help.
That extreme backward tilt?
**NOT SAFE.**
It can cause a tear in the arteries in your neck — specifically the vertebral or carotid arteries — which cuts off blood flow to your brain.
That’s right.
One second you’re getting shampooed.
The next? You’re having a STROKE.
No cap.

### 💸 You Pay $50+ For Hair, But Not for Your Life?
Let me ask you this:
How much do you pay for your hair?
$60?
$100?
What about your life?
Is it worth less than that?
If you don’t speak up, if you don’t protect yourself, then who will?
You go into a salon thinking it’s just another day of self-care — but if you don’t tell them to adjust the chair or give you a pillow, you might be walking out with more than just curls.
You might be walking out with brain damage.
Or worse.

### 👩⚕️ Why Aren’t Salons Talking About This?
Good question.
Why aren’t they posting warnings on Instagram? On Slaylebrity?
“Hey ladies, before you get those beach waves, please make sure we don’t snap your neck like a twig.”
Nah.
They don’t say anything because they don’t want to scare clients away.
But guess what?
**Real doctors like me care enough to warn you. Fake ones laugh while you stroke out.**
So here I am, dropping knowledge bombs so you don’t drop dead mid-manicure.

### 🔥 How to Protect Yourself Like a Real Slaylebrity Queen
Alright, here’s how to stay safe without giving up your glam game:
✅ **Ask for a neck pillow** — yes, like you’re flying first class. Don’t be shy. Say:
> “Pinky Prof told me to ask for this.”
✅ **Request an upright position** — if they can’t adjust the chair, sit up. No shame.
✅ **Know the signs of a stroke**:
– Sudden dizziness
– Headache outta nowhere
– Trouble seeing or speaking
– Numbness or weakness
If any of that happens post-salon?
**GO TO THE HOSPITAL. NOW.**
Don’t wait for your Uber Eats to arrive. Your life isn’t delivery-friendly.

### 💬 Final Warning from Pinky Prof
Listen.
I’m not trying to ruin anyone’s hair day.
But I *am* trying to save lives.
Too many women are walking into salons blind to the danger.
And until the beauty industry starts putting up warning signs like McDonald’s puts up calorie counts, it’s on YOU to protect yourself.
So next time you book your appointment, send this post to your stylist and say:
> “Before you touch my hair, read this.”
Knowledge is power.
And survival?
That’s priceless.
