Bad Business

John from South Invercargill & Bluff

To every one whos reading this posts,my mother got discriminated againsts on Tuesday 10 December 2019,we had already booked into this hair dressing salon roughly 4 months ago,the owners never told us at the time they would not haircut,wash or dye my mothers hair, the owner came up to me and said we can not give your mum a hair cut,or wash and hair dyed,any more i said why,this is what he said to me and he was hesitating every time i asks him,he tried to uses the Health and Safety Act,Work Safe NZ,said he up lifted a lady from her Wheel Chair and went to put her in a chair for her hair to be washed and said he almosts dropped her,as he did with my mother lasts year 2018,that was not true i made the owner aware of that,my mum has a disability and is in a wheel chair,but can get out of it aided by myself and she can get into that chair for her hair to be washed and dyed,no Salon Staff has helped us,he goes on to say umm i mean when shes in the chair with her head tilted back with a towel on her chests,to stop water going on her,then when i took him to tasks on that umm i mean in cases you dropped your mum it wouldn't look good for him and his business,we have been with this Hair dressing Salon for years,my mums even had her hair washed and dyed by his staff quite a few times in the pasts,,all of a sudden he discriminates againsts an elderly lady with a disability in a wheel chair.and refuses her the services,the owner of that hair dressing salon has come out and told me to my faces we now wont haircut,wash and dyed any disability people in a wheel chair,i rang Work Safe NZ up and i told them what happen,they said we have been treated unfairly
.I have taken my Complaint to the Human Rights,the Newspaper,by law no bussiness is allowed to discriminate againsts any one its illegal,they are not allowed to discriminate againsts any one with a disability in a Wheel Chair,as this business has done,if im right its an offences,also under the Consumers Guarantees Act and the Fair Trading Act it is againsts the law to what they have done to my mother,she had to plead with them to cut her hair when i told her not to asks,
As i said by law i am not allowed to mention the Owners name or Business.
His Hair Salon is in that new places in Don st opposite the Auction Houses try 2/20 Don St
SO people take your business elses where he uses to be good onces
