It's not like you owe her anything....if you wanna stop going to her, than that's fine! It's your choice!

As a stylist I would want a client to be honest and tell me if there is a problem. I would want your mom to tell me that what I'm doing with her hair isn't working for her and for her to tell me what problems she is having with her hair at home.
That being said-I know that it's hard to say that to someone especially if you have contact outside of the salon. Sometimes hairdressers get stuck in a rut and don't know what else to do for you. Sometimes it is good to get a different stylist's opinion about your hair. But I also know that some stylists are competitive and would be offended if you went elsewhere.
In your case you should just be up front and tell her that you like her and she didn't do anything to make you leave, but that one of your friends reccommended a stylist and you and your mom are going to try her. This way she won't wonder what she did wrong, she won't feel uncomfortable or you with her when you run into each other.
Clients come and go all the time and though she will miss you, she'll also be excited to see you in the future if you come back to her.

I went through something like this recently. My hairstylist had me in a funk. I was not happy with my hair. I received a gift certificate for a different salon and had someone good cut it. My mom, daughter, sister-in-law and I switched hairdressers. The old hairdresser finally called my home to see if we were okay and I told her we had found someone new. I was nice and she was cool. She understood. You're not the only person this has happened to.

Tell her the truth. If your mom doesn't like how she is cutting it, maybe she could give her a suggestion of a different way. If that doesn't work, then maybe you both should find a different hairstylist. Bottom line, if she is professional, she shouldn't have anything negative to say whether you go to her or not.

Even though I'm a guy, I can help you with this.
When I go into a barbershop for a haircut and there are two barbers working, I ALWAYS have the guy with the bad 'do cut mine. Reason? Guess who cut it....the other guy! He's not going to make mine look like that!

If you like her, just keep going to her. She probably won't say anything but if she does, the easiest thing to tell her is the truth.
She's going elsewhere. KISS - good motto. Keep It Simple and Smile.

tell her that you let one of your friends cut it BC they are studying to be a hairstylist! It always worked for me! I would say that one of my sorority sisters cut it!
