A young hairdresser has sued her high-end salon claiming they repeatedly ignored her complaints of a debilitating wrist injury.
Keely Alister, 24, has taken legal action against the UVA Salon in Prahran, in inner-city Melbourne, for pain and suffering she claims to have sustained while at work.
Ms Alister says the constant cutting, colouring and styling she performed during her time at the in-demand salon has left her with chronic pain in her right wrist.
