'You saved me' How a hairstylist's offer helped a woman with severe depression A hairstylist in Oshkosh, Wisconsin proves what a big difference one simple act of kindness can make by offering a life-changing haircut to a woman dealing with severe depression. Kate Langman, a stylist at an ULTA Beauty salon, first encountered the woman when she came into the beauty store looking for products to fix her heavily matted hair. It had gotten that way after months of laying in bed, unable to move. “When I asked if she needed any help, she began to tell me her story,” the 22-year-old wrote on Facebook to share the story that has since gotten massive attention. “She couldn’t get out of her bed for six months. Which meant she didn’t wash her hair or brush it,” Langman wrote about the woman, who she kept anonymous out of respect, describing her severe depression. “She kept pulling it back into this bun which after that long (amount) of time turned into a huge dread lock (sic). The bun was so matted that it felt like she literally had rocks on the back of her head.”
